The packaging sector in Malaysia is expected to reach 18.5 billion units by 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.8% for the forecast period of 2019-2024, says GlobalData, a leading data and analytics company.

GlobalData’s report, ‘Malaysia Packaging Industry – Trends and Opportunities’ reveals that the sector is majorly driven by growth in the paper & board packaging, which is forecast to register the fastest volume CAGR of 9.8% during 2019–2024. The category is followed by flexible packaging (a means of packaging products through the use of non-rigid materials), which is expected to record a CAGR of 2.7% during the next five years.

Anchal Bisht, Consumer Analyst at GlobalData, says: “Increasing demand for ready-to-eat foods is driving consumer preference for smaller portions with resealable options. This is driving the demand for flexible packaging material, the leading material by volume, in the Malaysian food industry. Based on the consumer survey conducted in Q1 2021, 58% of the Malaysian consumers cited “time saving” as an influential factor when deciding which products to purchase.

In year 2020,food packaging accounted for approximately 60% market share of the food industry in Malaysia, followed by non-alcoholic and other industries.
