[Mayur Yewale]

According to Market Research Future (MRFR), the global tobacco packaging market is estimated to reach USD 16.65 billion, with a CAGR of 3.1% from 2017 to 2023 (forecast period). The report summarises the market opportunities and market implications that arose as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Tobacco is made from the leaves of the tobacco plant. Tobacco is a part of the genus Nicotiana & nightshade plant family. In order to prevent it from bacteria, aroma transmission, good quality of the packaging is required. Packaging plays a vital role as it provides information on the product's content, the ingredient, and keeps the product in perfect condition.

Market Dynamics

Various tobacco products are available, such as cigarettes, cigars, E-cigarette & smokeless tobacco for chewing or dipping, dissolvable tobacco, pipes, and hookah-cigarettes. Growing population, changing lifestyles, and technological advancement are some of the factors driving the tobacco packaging market trends. The equality laws for men and women, which led to a high number of female smokers, are another driving factor in the market.

Stressful life, increased workload, and a hectic schedule encourage tobacco consumption. The introduction of smokeless tobacco for chewing or dipping and E-cigarettes are significant trends in the global market for tobacco packaging. In addition, diseases such as mouth cancer and lung cancer caused by tobacco hinder the global market's growth. The government and NGOs are organizing anti-tobacco campaigns to raise awareness of the hazardous effects of tobacco. The World Health Organization (WHO) has also launched a number of projects to control tobacco consumption, such as mAwareness & mSmoke-free.
