Metallized Paper Market Share, Size, Analysis, Growth & Trends- By Product Insights (lamination and vacuum lamination),By Application Insights (printing and packaging),By End User Insights (Food, Beverages, Home Care, Personal Care, Electrical, Chemicals, Banking) and By Region - Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2020 – 2030

Metallized Paper Market size was valued at USD 3.8 billion in 2020 and is projected to reach USD 5.6 billion by 2030 growing with the CAGR of 4% during the forecast period 2020 to 2030. Metalized paper is a form of speciality paper that contains metal particles and may be used for printing or lamination. Metalized papers provide a high gloss surface, which improves product quality and boosts consumer satisfaction. They also offer high dimensional stability due to their thickness, as well as good scratch resistance qualities since they are covered with an aluminium oxide layer during the production process, which provides a barrier against abrasion and scratches. Metalized papers are utilised in a variety of applications such as printing, card manufacturing, and food and beverage packaging, among others.

Requirement to keep Packaging's environmental impact minimum, the enormous demand for packaged goods, particularly in the food and beverage sectors, as well as the growing environmental concern about plastics, has prompted the packaging industry to change towards a better option that has a lower environmental effect. Labeling and packing done by metallized papers on items aid in the decomposition of the material in a short period of time with no emissions of harmful gases into the environment. This will eventually balance the world's deteriorating climatic circumstances, boosting the expansion of the metallized paper industry. However, difficulties with metallized paper recyclability pose pollution concerns. However, difficulties with metallized paper recyclability pose pollution concerns. Metalized paper is made by combining aluminum with a variety of additional components such as plastic coating, lacquer, and varnish. Because of its complex structure, metallized paper cannot be recycled using traditional paper recycling methods.

Market Segmentation:

• Product Insights

The Metallized Paper market can be divided into two types: lamination and vacuum lamination. Due to the rising use of metalized papers in different sectors such as food and drinks, personal care goods, and pharmaceuticals, the Laminating category is projected to account for the greatest CAGR over the projection period. Lamination is the process of bonding two films together with adhesives. Lamination may enhance the look and longevity of film or paper while also adding colour, clarity, smoothness, and gloss to the surface. Laminating is the process of putting adhesive material to both sides of an item such that one side creates an inner layer. Lamination is an important process in the paper industry for producing metalized sheets that are used in a variety of applications such as printing, packing, and labelling.

• Application Insights

The Metalized Paper market is divided into two applications: printing and packaging. The Packaging sector accounted for the highest share whereas the printing segment is projected to expand at a quicker pace due to its rising usage in the print industries. Because of growing urbanisation and consumer products, packaging is expected to dominate the market. Metallized papers are utilised for a variety of packaging and label applications and have been created to provide a number of unique technical properties. Metalized papers have attractive finishes that increase product shelf appeal.For more than 50 years, metalized paper has been utilized in the packaging business. It is most often employed as a barrier layer to protect food items from oxidation and moisture loss, as well as to avoid metal contamination. Metalized films are also highly efficient in preserving freshness by reducing oxygen transfer rates in the package, which can slow down chemical reactions and deterioration. Furthermore, metalized coatings are very effective at preventing light and UV rays from reaching the food product, which might impair its quality over time.

• End Use Insights

On the basis of End use, the metalized paper market is divided into Food, Beverages, Home Care, Personal Care, Electrical, Chemicals, Banking. The use of metallized paper packaging in confectionery goods is also driving growth in the industry. The advancement of coating manufacturing technologies has increased the appeal of metallized paper packaging. The glossy appearance of such paper appeals to end consumers. Glossy feature of such paper attracts end users. Aluminum coated paper is popular in cigarette packaging. Aluminum foil packaging for cigarettes has a metallic sheen, a gas barrier characteristic, and a low adhesive viscosity.. Chocolate sales in Europe have remained consistent, particularly in Germany, France, and the United Kingdom, while demand for chocolate has increased by significant amount in Poland and India, respectively. This reflects the strong demand for metallized glossy paper for chocolate packaging. Confectionery sales are expected to roughly quadruple in South Asian and Northern African nations, boosting demand for metallized paper used in the packaging of confectionery items in the regions.

Geographical Analysis

Metalized paper is becoming more popular as a gift wrapping material, particularly in industrialised North American countries. Metalized paper's development may be hindered to some extent owing to recyclability concerns. Metalized paper is difficult to recycle because it includes several layer sheets that are coated with two or more components – posing a risk to producers. Furthermore, the region's desire for efficient and recyclable packaging has been fueled by rising environmental concerns. Furthermore, the region's market growth is aided by the region's high disposable incomes, as well as growing investments in the healthcare sector. Technological developments in medical packaging techniques, as well as increased efforts by the US FDA to encourage sustainable pharmaceutical packaging solutions, are fueling the market's expansion in North America.

In the Europe, metallized paper market in Europe is anticipated to develop steadily over the next ten years, owing to its application in labels and wraps/overwraps. Furthermore, demand for packaged food and beverages has been steadily growing in all regions of the world. The second-largest market was Europe. In comparison to other regions, product demand in Europe is slow. Pharmaceutical packaging is the primary driver of the market, which is expected to expand at a modest rate over the projected period. The growing incidence of chronic illnesses, as well as improved medicine exports to Asia Pacific’s emerging countries, is driving the region's pharmaceutical packaging expansion.

Geographically, Asia accounts for about two-fifths of the global metallized paper market and is anticipated to sustain market development, particularly in East Asia. China and India are the two largest markets for metallized paper, and both are anticipated to increase year on year in the future years. The metallized paper market in South Asian nations such as Indonesia and Malaysia is projected to develop faster than in other areas. South Asia's demand for labelling, followed by wraps/overwraps, is projected to rise at a faster rate, fueling market expansion. However, due to a lack of innovation in the sector, adoption of metallized paper in the food and beverage industry is expected to develop slowly.

In Middle East & Africa The overall improvement in living standards, trade & commerce, rise in food & beverage market, may be viewed as key factors contributing to the sector's growth. Counterfeiting assaults in the middle east market, particularly in food and drinks and medicines, are on the rise as a result of forged labelling and inadequate holography, resulting in huge government revenue loss as well as potential health concerns to consumers from allergic responses. Holographic sheets made from metallized paper provide additional security against counterfeiters. On consumer items, high-resolution holographic emblems with micro texts give higher security, while high-resolution imagery for the backdrop permits hologram movement for quicker detection of the products' authenticity.
