Consumer electronics packaging is a protective covering for the products to ensure safe and secure shipping. Packaging is crucial, as electronic products have very tiny components that are delicate and prone to damage, It is used to protect the electronics from mechanical damage, electrostatic charge, natural disasters, and mishandling damage. Any electronic device intended for end users' or consumers' daily and non-commercial or professional use is known as consumer electronics (CE). The main types of products in consumer electronics packaging includes corrugated boxes, paperboard boxes, thermoformed trays, bags and pouches, blister packs and clamshells, protective packaging, and others. The corrugated boxes are used as packaging materials for a variety of goods such as food, stationery, electronics, medicine, etc. Corrugated boxes refer to cartons that are made up of a few layers of material instead of just a single sheet-like cardboard. Usually, three layers are present in corrugated boxes, which are stuck together to form a single sheet. The different technologies include active packaging, intelligent packaging, modified atmospheric packaging, anti-microbial packaging, aseptic packaging, and others. The various material types include plastic, paper, paperboard, and others that are used in mobile phones, computers, TVs, DTH and set-top boxes, music systems, printers, scanners, and photocopy machines, game consoles and toys, camcorders and cameras, and others. The global consumer electronics packaging market is segmented - 1) By Product Type: Corrugated Boxes, Paperboard Boxes, Thermoformed Trays, Bags and Pouches, Blister Packs and Clamshells, Protective Packaging, Other Product Types 2) By Technology: Active Packaging, Intelligent Packaging, Modified Atmospheric Packaging, Anti-Microbial Packaging, Aseptic Packaging, Other Technologies 3) By Material Type: Plastic, Paper and Paperboard, Other Material Types 4) By Application: Mobile Phones, Computers, TVs, DTH and Set-Top boxes, Music Systems, Printers, Scanners and Photocopy Machines, Game Consoles and Toys, Camcorders and Cameras, Other Applications The global consumer electronics packaging market size grew from $20.2 billion in 2022 to $22.86 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.2%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services, and affecting many markets across the globe. The market size of the global consumer electronics packaging is expected to grow to $35.77 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 11.8%. The increasing demand for paper and paperboard in packaging is driving the growth of the consumer electronics packaging market. Paper and paperboard are usually used in packaging due to their biodegradable and environmentally friendly nature. This can help to lower the cost of shipping used electronics. For instance, according to a survey conducted in January 2021 to explore consumer preferences, perceptions, and attitudes toward print, paper, and paper-based packaging, among 8,800 consumers at the global level by Two Sides North America, a US-based non-profit organization working to elevate the use of paper-based packaging and spread awareness, approximately 50% of people believed that paper-based packaging was better for the environment than other types of packaging, while 52% preferred products ordered online to be delivered in paper-based packaging. Therefore, the increasing demand for paper and paperboard packaging is propelling the consumer electronics packaging market growth. Major players in the consumer electronics packaging market are DS Smith PLC, Mondi PLC, International Paper Company, Sonoco Products Company, Shenzhen Hoichow Packing Manufacturing Ltd., Dordan Manufacturing Company, Hangzhou Xunda Packaging Co., Dunapack Packaging Group, Universal Protective Packaging Inc., Parksons Packaging Ltd., Neenah Inc., Plastic Ingenuity, JJX Packaging, UFP Technologies Inc., and JohnsByrne Company. Product innovation is a key trend gaining popularity in the consumer electronics packaging market. Major companies operating in the consumer electronics packaging sector are using new and innovative products to enhance productivity and efficiency.
