US demand for bubble packaging is forecast to increase 4.0% per year to $847 million in 2024. Sales gains will be driven by:
The e-commerce market for bubble packaging is expected to outpace all other outlets for bubble packaging, as consumers become increasingly comfortable ordering items online. Higher value items in particular require added protection and thus more packaging to ensure safe transport. Consumers opting for e-commerce, due to the added convenience of not having to go to the store, increases the number of packages shipped and thus demand for protective packaging. Growth in onsite inflatable bubble packaging will create further opportunities in the e-commerce market.
The launch of innovative bubble packaging solutions is helping to drive sales increases. For example, onsite inflatable bubble packaging is attractive to users favoring increased customization and space savings (as the packaging is only inflated when needed).
A push for more sustainable protective packaging is supporting efforts to produce more environmentally friendly bubble packaging. Bubble packaging made from recycled content and that is recyclable at specific drop-off locations, for example, will help bubble packaging remain more competitive with other sustainable options such as molded pulp and paperboard protectors.
