Pharmaceutical Glass Packaging Market Dynamics

Driver: Growth of the Pharmaceutical Industry in Emerging Economies

Emerging economies including China, India, and Brazil are providing an outstanding opportunity for the growth of the pharmaceutical industry. These economies showcase a huge market potential in the global pharmaceutical industry. The growing population focus on increasing life expectancy, and increasing disposable income are some of the factors expected to provide companies with attractive opportunities in the coming years as several companies are struggling with the stagnation of mature markets, expiration of patents, and a rise in regulatory hurdles. The healthcare infrastructure in the abovementioned economies has observed a drastic change and therefore, the one-size-fits-all approach cannot be applied to emerging markets. Even among the three main market clusters - the BRICMT economies, namely Brazil, Russia, India, China, Mexico, and Turkey and the second-tier countries in Southeast Asia and Africa — there are local idiosyncrasies that make bespoke approaches to these markets essential.

Driver: Commodity Value of Glass Increased with Recyclability

Glass is 100% recyclable in nature and can be reprocessed limitlessly without loss in quality or purity. The recycled glass can be substituted for up to 95.0% of raw materials such as sand, soda ash, limestone, and cullet (recycled glass). The recycling of glass products aids manufacturers as it decreases the amount of raw material used and helps in reducing emissions. Furthermore, the recycling of glass extends the life of plant equipment such as furnaces and saves energy. According to data published in May 2014 by Glass Packaging Institute, a trade association representing the North American glass container industry, 40.0% of glass beer and soft drink bottles, 32.0% of wine and liquor bottles, 15.0% of food jars, and around 32.5% of all glass containers were recycled in the U.S. This helped the developers of glass containers to save approximately 1,300 pounds of sand, 410.0 pounds of soda ash, 380.0 pounds of limestone, and 160.0 pounds of feldspar.

Restraint: Increased Relevance of Alternate Sources

The market for pharmaceutical glass packaging is projected to observe a slight slump in the forecast period mainly due to the high cost of glass raw materials and unavailability of economically viable solutions for the packaging of products for mass consumption. Plastic bottles used for pharma packaging are made of a special plastic, known as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), which is a clear, strong, and lightweight plastic belonging to the polyester family. It is the same plastic that is globally used for the storage and selling of packaged drinking water, carbonated soft drinks, and soda, among other consumable liquid products. PET is deemed safe for direct contact with food and beverage by health and regulatory agencies globally including the U. S. Food & Drug Administration, Health Canada, and the European Food Safety Authority. Furthermore, the plastic is non-leaching and non-extractable, thereby allowing the formulation to remain unchanged and safe.
