There are both advantages or disadvantages in many sectors because of covid-19 pandemic. But the packaging sector around the world has significant benefits than other industries.
As other countries were shut down due to deadly virus, stock up on necessary supplies such as medicines, dairy products, foods and vegetables, sanitizer, masks and many more have been in high demand. All these products require packaging, and production has been higher than before the virus. The consumer or customer prefers the packed products rather than initially available. Hence, the demand for the packaging industry has increased due to the pandemic.
INCREASE OF PLASTIC MATERIALS BUSINESS
In the packaging industry, by material, the plastics sector has a high demand. A lot of manufacturers and companies who initially used other materials prefer plastic for apparent health care safety, as it is much safer, more affordable, long-lasting and for years the medical industry has been using plastic for medicine packaging. Plastic also helps in stopping the spread of diseases. During the lockdown period, the products are supposed to have a longer self-life, and expiring soon would lead to starvation as the people would not be able to buy a new replacement for the expired as most of the production units were closed. The employees were also asked to stay quarantine and self-isolation.
DEMAND TO KEEP UP
Many packaging manufacturing companies who were not able to increase their production as per the high demand are not able to sustain in the market after the pandemic is over because most of the organizations that relayed those packaging firms have already shifted to new companies to full fill the demand in the market.
INCREASE E-COMMERCE AND ONLINE RETAILS MARKET
With the rise of online retailing, online retailers also launching their own private labels brand. These providing consumers with a much wider choice of products and channels to buy. The rise in online labels further boost food and beverages packaging market as online private labels to grow 1.3 to 1.5 times faster than e-commerce platforms and continue to generate 1.8 to 2 times higher margin than external brands.

• Using protective packaging made of corrugated and foam material reduces the weight of cargo with more than 50% compared to wooden crates.
• The price of raw materials is important in heavy duty packaging. Lately, wood prices have gone up dramatically compared to corrugated.
• Wooden containers used in international shipping must be chemically or heat treated against pests. This treatment is necessary but makes the wood more expensive. The use of corrugated packaging circumvents all these issues.
• The time to cut and mount a corrugated box with foam inserts normally takes up about 30% of the time it takes to create a wooden container. Designing and producing samples is a matter of minutes.
• A quick turn around time is guaranteed. It takes about 12 minutes to pack an item with the volume of 2 m². These container designs are stored in templates for you to choose from and use or reuse immediately.
• Protective packaging is designed so that it is very straightforward, clean and fast to unpack at the destination. There is no need for heavy tools and it is easy to dispose of as recycle points are found everywhere.
• Ecologically speaking, producing protective packaging out of corrugated materials is a very sound decision.
