Cold Chain Packaging Market Forecasts to 2028 – Global Analysis By Product (Gel Packs & Bricks, Foam Bricks, Crates), End User (Pharmaceutical, Food, Beverages, Cosmetics, Chemical, Industrial) and By Geography

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Cold Chain Packaging Market is accounted for $18.51 billion in 2020 and is expected to reach $87.31 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 21.4% during the forecast period. Factors such as changing lifestyle of people, growing population, and rapid urbanization in emerging economies are driving the growth of the market. However, high cost associated with the products is hampering the growth of the market.
Cold chain packaging is extensively used in providing efficient refrigeration to food, beverages, and pharmaceuticals during the time of preservation, transportation, and distribution. These solutions include different types of refrigerated containers, temperature monitors & integrators for managing product’s life period.
Based on the material, the refrigerants segment is anticipated to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period owing to the increasing demand for energy-efficient natural refrigerants as well as the increasing emphasis on the use of low ozone depletion potential (ODP) and low global warming potential (GWP) gases. By geography, North America is going to have high growth during the forecast period owing to the continuous growth in demand for cold storage medicinal products used in the healthcare industry.
Some of the key players profiled in the Cold Chain Packaging Market include Sonoco Thermosafe, Cold Chain Technologies Inc., Pelican BioThermal LLC, Coolpac, Intelsius (A DGP Company), Cryopak Industries Inc., Softbox Systems Ltd., Clip-Lok SimPak, Sofrigam Company, Chill-Pak, va Q tec, Creopack, Cascades inc, Sealed Air Corporation, and Tempack.
