Market Insight, Drivers, Restraints,
Opportunity & Trends of the Market:
Definition
Molded
fiber pulp packaging is one of the sustainable types of packaging that is manufactured
by using recycled paper wastes. Recycled material includes waste newspapers,
papers, cardboards, etc. Molded fiber pulp is also known as molded pulp or
molded fiber and is largely used for protective packaging.
Molded
fiber pulp packaging is recyclable and, thus considered a sustainable
packaging material by Sustainable Packaging Coalition (GreenBlue), an
environment based non-profit organization located in the U.S.
According
to EPA, molded pulp products are categorized under Mechanical Pulp (G-Final
Codified Sub-part). The manufacturers in The U.S. are bounded by the
limitations such as effluent control regulations. The standards such as New
source performance standards (NSPS), Pretreatment standards for existing
sources (PSES) and Pretreatment standards for new sources (PSNS) has to be
adopted for manufacturing molded fiber pulp products.
According
to NESHAP, molded pulp products are categorized under secondary fiber mills,
also referred as MACT (III). It focusses on controlling the total hazardous air
pollutants (HAP) emissions. Some of the important regulation involves mills to
collect and incinerate process emissions, avoiding use of harmful bleaching
chemicals etc.
Market Drivers
Eco-friendly
and biodegradable molded pulp packaging is gaining wide acceptance and recognition.
Molded fiber is a classic packaging material made from recycled paperboard and
newsprint. It is a collective term for the process of producing strong,
protective, and biodegradable packaging from 100% recycled materials. Moreover,
the molded pulp fiber manufacturing process has no wastage, as all the residue
and water are reused and recycled. The environment friendly and green molded
fiber packaging meets customers’ needs and expectations in terms of both
packaging excellence and ecological development and responsibility. Packaging
with molded fiber gains wide attention as it promotes environmental concern and
green packaging. Moreover, it acts as a competitive advantage for the
companies by differentiating their
products from the competitors.
Ø Kielding,Inc.
is the manufacturer of quality custom molded fiber packaging, which is made
from 100% recycled paper and offers superior packaging performance and
ecological responsibility.
Molded
pulp is a versatile material that continues to experience significant growth
and opportunity in terms of protection and packaging. Historically, expanded
polystyrene (EPS) packaging has been considered versatile packaging for
protection of products in distribution. However, molded fiber has seen
widespread use as it is environment friendly packaging with excellent vibration
dampening and cushioning properties. It offers reliable protection of products
against damage caused by impacts during transportation and storage. Molded
fiber has better grip, shock absorbing and elasticity properties. Molded fiber
packaging has been used for a wide range of products from packaging of wine
bottles and cosmetics to cushions for computers, protective package for
candles, and inserts for mobile phones.
Ø Philips
Consumer Lifestyle has previously used retail cartons for packaging of large protective
PET blisters. The change to smaller PET blisters combined with protective
molded fiber packaging has led to sustainability, branding, and reduced costs.
Market Restraints
Molded
fiber is made up of 100% recycled paper and is a sustainable product that is
fully biodegradable and cost-efficient. However, there are certain
disadvantages of the material. Molded pulp may not be cost effective and
environmental friendly when transported to distant places. Moreover, it may
lead to emissions during transportation due to its weight. There are also
threat of substitutes such as EPS, plastics in the industry. EPS also has
several ecological benefits, as it is made up of 98% air. Usage of molded fiber
significantly increases raw material and power requirements as compared to EPS.
Moreover, EPS is better as a shock absorbing material and similar applications.
EPS is lightweight and versatile and offers savings in design and development
cost, product assembly and distribution costs. Hence, it holds a considerable
share of the packaging market and is the suitable threat to the molded pulp
packaging market. Moreover, plastic is also inexpensive, lightweight and
durable material which can readily be molded and can be used as a packaging
material in large number of applications.
The
choice of fiber and the properties of different fibers used in molded pulp
packaging directly influence the characteristics of the final product produced.
Packaging structures made up of different fiber types result in products with
different characteristics, properties and specifications. The raw materials
such as paper or newsprint which contains the large percentage of short fibers
and has been recycled many times produce the final product which is short
lived, weak, rigid and has low tensile strength. Contrastingly, long fiber
based raw materials develop greater strength, provide superior product
flexibility and ensure high loading ability for heavy item packages. Moreover,
molded pulp packaging is not well suited for the packaging of certain
applications such as furniture, televisions, cold chain shippers etc. which
require the unique cushioning abilities of expanded polystyrene.
Opportunities
Asia
Pacific offers significant opportunities in the molded fiber packaging market.
This is attributed to rapid urbanization, growing population, and increasing
consumer influence. The region accounts for over 60% of the global egg
production; China is the largest egg producer in the world. Moreover, other
regions such as Vietnam and Malaysia present high growth opportunities in the
molded pulp packaging market due to advancements in technology, manufacturing,
and packaging tools in these regions.
ü Hartmann
has a strong foothold in Europe and North America. It aims to crack other
emerging markets such as Asia Pacific through collaboration with distribution
partners, agents, suppliers, and other packaging companies
Companies
across the globe are focusing on environment friendly and sustainable
packaging. Cosmetics companies have begun using molded fiber packaging which
ensures sustainability, protection of the products, and also provides strong
visual shelf presence.
ü Proctor
& Gamble partnered a molded fiber supplier to develop a biodegradable
package for its Gillette Fusion ProGlide using molded pulp packaging, which is
20% lighter and allows it to cut the percentage of plastic by more than 50%.
ü Aveda
Corporation has entered into partnership with UFP Technologies, Inc., an
innovative designer and custom converter of foam, plastics, and natural fiber
products, to develop packaging of its Aveda Uruku lipstick using molded pulp
packaging. The packaging is in clamshell form surrounded by a sleeve that holds
everything in place.
Trends
Companies
are realizing the protective, ecological, and sustainable benefits of molded
pulp packaging. They are giving weightage to the green statement together with
the other benefits such as cost effective and recycled packaging
Ø Pangea
Organics has shown innovation in the packaging of the soap products by adding
plant seeds in the slurry of molded pulp. Soap is packaged in a clamshell made
completely of processed pulp. Once the package is used, it can be decomposed
and buried to grow the plant.
Ø Newton
Running Shoes created a shoebox made of molded pulp in which the outline of the
shoebox curves around the shape of the shoe. This design not only creates
strength in the package, but also saves material by not adding extra tissue
paper to fill the empty space in the standard packaging of a rectangular
shoebox.
