Middle East and Africa Packaging Robots Market

Market Introduction

Packaging robots are the technologies used to automate the packaging operations across different industries such as consumer goods, consumer electronics, pharmaceuticals, e-commerce, food & beverage, chemicals, and personal care products sector. These robots are designed primarily for packaging operations such as material handling, moving or packing goods, sealing & labelling, and other tasks in order to sustain consistency, quality, and accuracy in packaging operations. There are primarily four different types of packaging robotic technologies used across different industries for packaging automation. This includes articulated robots, Cartesian robots, SCARA robots, and delta robots which are also called parallel link robots

Market Overview and Dynamics

The Middle East and Africa packaging robots market is expected to reach US$ 613.90 million by 2028 from US$ 312.21 million in 2021; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 10.14% from 2021 to 2028. The major factors driving the growth of market are the rising demand for packaging robots from several industries and growing demand for reducing the overall operation costs across packaging sector. However, the high deployment cost of packaging robots hampers the market growth.

Packaging methods for consumer-packaged goods must be precise and repeatable. Companies that use robotics in their packaging lines can improve throughput, efficiency, and quality. Individual packaging at high-cycle rates might be difficult. Robotics has proven to have a high return on investment in a variety of applications, including raw product handling, primary packaging, secondary packaging, and palletizing. Moreover, product branding and packaging are critical for producers to be competitive in today's market. Packaging, brand name, content, and pricing all influence customers' purchase patterns. Also, counterfeit items are a common problem for manufacturers in the food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and FMCG industries. Packaging robots are reliable and give high-quality branding information via labelling. After products are packaged, a unique identification code is generated, which aids in product tracking along the supply chain. Moreover, the main benefit of robotics in packaging sector is that they offer no doubt in flexibility. Line machinists can adjust the contour of a case or pallet load with the push of a button. This highlights the flexibility needed to satisfy trade customers that need more and more tailored cargoes, while not losing the accompanying speed. Furthermore, robotic packaging systems such as pick-and-place robots are equipped with slim arms and a wide reach, as well as solid repeatability and precision tooling, enabling them to be exceedingly precise and accurate. Because of their high precision, they're a good fit for a variety of packaging and supply chain tasks. Lastly, Product quality and cycle time can both be improved using robot packaging equipment. Because robotic actions are regulated, their consequences are always consistent, which enhances packing quality. The packaging procedures can run smoothly because of this consistency.

Middle East is one of the regions with several economies still in the nascent stage of technological adoption and developments. The COVID-19 pandemic is likely to accelerate the infrastructural developments in the region to keep businesses stable and profitable by optimizing production lines. However, the growth outlook for the region is neutral and depends on the government and private sector initiatives and investments. Due to the pandemic, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Egypt, Morocco, and Kuwait are the main countries facing economic setbacks. The financial implications of the COVID-19 pandemic in these countries can push their developments backward and make them economically unstable for the long term.
