Seattle, WA -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/19/2020 -- Pharmaceutical packaging, also known as drug packaging, involves various activities ranging from pharmaceuticals production to distribution to the end users, via a number of distribution channels. Technological advancements, surging demand for devices of drug delivery, increasing demand for eco-friendly and reusable packaging, rapid development in healthcare services, and rapid urbanization, especially in the emerging economies of the world, such as India and China, are the pivotal factors responsible for the growth of the global pharmaceutical packaging market.
Generally, the price of raw materials are not fixed and varies from season to place of origin which may affect the buying potential of such items decreases. Therefore, fluctuating prices of raw materials used for the manufacturing of pharmaceutical packaging products is one of the primary factors hindering the growth of the global market. However, the impact of this restraint is expected to remain moderate throughout the forecast period. Another significant factor affecting the global market growth negatively is the increasing sale of counterfeit medicines across the globe.
Asia Pacific experiences the largest sale of counterfeit medicines. Regular packaging is used by the counterfeiters, which badly impacts the growth of the pharmaceutical packaging market in the region. Hence, stringent measures taken by regulatory bodies and media interference are likely to curb the growth of counterfeit medicines across the globe.
