World Cannabis Packaging Market Analysis and Segment Forecasts, 2017-2026 - ResearchAndMarkets.com

The "Cannabis Packaging Market Analysis By Type, By Material, By Applications, By Regions And Segment Forecasts, 2017-2026" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The Global Cannabis Packaging Market size is estimated to reach USD 6.57 billion, from USD 1.75 billion in 2019, delivering a CAGR of 26.4% through 2027, according to a recent analysis.

The market growth is driven by the increasing legalization of cannabis and hemp-based CBD products across several countries, which, in turn, is bolstering the demand for cannabis packaging. With the legalization of medical marijuana on the rise, the global cannabis industry has grown over 310% in the past four years.

Currently, cannabis packing has many formats, including plastic jars, glass, decorative tins, cartons, rigid tubes, bottles, and flexible pouches, among others. There are several other fast-growing products in the sector like shatter, wax, tinctures, and the more recent cannabis-infused wine and cannabis-dissolving mouth strips.

As per the Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies, cannabis legalization is pending in more than 13 states, while on some level, it has already been legalized in over 28 states in the United States. The rise in the number of self-funded small organizations is contributing to this exponential growth of the industry.

A report by New Frontier Data, an analytics company specializing in cannabis, estimates that the cannabis market is expected to be worth USD 24.5 billion in the U.S. alone, with USD 11.2 billion generated by the recreational use of the products. In 2017, nearly 89% of customers preferred cannabis flowers, and estimates suggest that about 61% of the customers would prefer flowers, processed weed, and alternatively concentrated format by the end of 2020.

The rising trend of green packing is prompting industry players to roll out packaging for marijuana and CBD products that is biodegradable, compostable, and recyclable. Moreover, the growing focus on the adoption of specific labels and child-resistant packaging as per government regulations will support the expansion of the cannabis packaging market over the forecast period.

Additionally, more states are legalizing medical marijuana, which is likely to further bolster regional industry growth.
