What Are The Major Driving Forces Influencing The Barrier Packaging Materials For Pharmaceuticals Market Landscape?
The expansion of the barrier packaging materials market for pharmaceuticals is expected to be fueled by the rise in biologic drug production. These therapeutics, derived from living cells or organisms, are developed to treat diseases that traditional chemical drugs cannot. As the occurrence of chronic and complex illnesses demanding precise and effective treatments increases, so does the demand for biologic drugs. These drugs are protected from moisture, oxygen, light, and microbial contamination by barrier packaging materials, enhancing their safety and stability. This containment method prevents degradation, extends the product's lifespan, and ensures its efficacy and the patient's safety. For example, the European Pharmaceutical Review (EPR), a UK-based NGO, reported in May 2022 that sales of biologics are expected to significantly outstrip those of innovative small molecules over the next five years. Sales are projected to rise by $120 billion by 2027. Hence, the upsurge in biologic drugs is a driving factor for the growth of the barrier packaging materials market for pharmaceuticals.
