Packaging is responsible for securing the product during storage, transportation, and sale from an industrial perspective. In many instances, the type of packaging also reflects the brand. From the perspective of the consumer, packaging should be useful and serve the intended purpose. Lightweight and flexible packaging is user-friendly and advantageous for consumers.
In 2017, the global market for adhesives used in the packaging business was approximately $ 7 billion, and it is expected to reach $ 41 billion by 2021, demonstrating the significance of adhesives in this industry and their growth. Food packaging utilizes laminated papers or laminated foils, as well as components that are sensitive to moisture, temperature, and air, to avoid product damage. The strength of the glue used in the packing of heavy items is crucial, and the temperature stability of frozen or heat-exposed products is crucial. To meet the needs of all of these sectors, specialist adhesives in all fields are required.
