Middle East and Africa Paper & Paperboard Trays Market Forecast to 2028 - COVID-19 Impact and Regional Analysis By Material (Virgin Fiber and Recycled Fiber) and Application (Food and Beverages, Consumer Electronics, Personal Care and Cosmetics, Healthcare, and Others)
Market Introduction
The Middle East and Africa paper & paperboard trays market is a highly fragmented market with the presence of considerable regional and local players providing numerous solutions for companies investing in the market arena. The factors such as the increasing working population, busy lifestyles, rapid urbanization, and changing taste preferences have generated a great demand for ready-to-eat food products. Moreover, the demand for these products has risen steeply during the COVID-19 pandemic, which has encouraged food manufacturers to come up with a wide range of packaging innovations. Ovenable packaging is among the most progressive innovation in this segment. Ovenable paper and paper-board trays are used to provide chilled, fresh, and frozen ready-to-eat meals at both the retail and foodservice levels. Lightweight, good thermal conductivity, strong performance, temperature resistance, and optimal barrier properties make them feasible and preferable packaging solutions over packaging options such as Crystallized Polyethylene Terephthalate (CPET) and polypropylene plastic trays. Ovenable paper and paper-board trays are available in a variety of shapes and sizes with different closing alternatives such as peelable and non-peelable films, or non-peelable and perforated tear-off paperboard lids. Moreover, they are sustainable packaging solutions that are easy to recycle. Foodservices, airline catering, and retail food outlets are among the major adopters of ovenable paper and paper-board trays, and the demand is expected to grow in the coming years.
South Africa reported the highest number of COVID-19 confirmed cases across Middle East and Africa, which led to the discontinuation of several businesses, such as paper & paperboard trays manufacturing activities. Also, due to the outbreak, most countries declared a health emergency and stopped unessential movements, thus impacting heavily on the supply chain of goods. Manufacturing facilities hustled to make changes due to the implementation of social distancing norms, which cased disruptions and slowdowns on throughput. Paper and paperboard industry may continue to see weak or broken links in their supply chains, which, in turn, would negatively affect the paper & paperboard trays market growth in the coming years.
