The Global Aluminum Foil For Pharmaceutical Packaging Market size is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.2% from 2021-2028 and will reach US$1.7 billion by 2028. Pharmaceutical packaging has always been an integral part of the healthcare system as it helps in the assurance of quality standards as well as maintaining sterility and safety standards for medication that are being dispensed. Aluminum foil offers excellent barrier properties which help in protecting drugs from moisture, light, oxygen, and other harmful substances that could damage them or cause reactions when consumed.
The aluminum foil is used in the packaging of pharmaceuticals to protect them from moisture, light, oxygen, and other harmful substances. Aluminum foils provide excellent barrier properties which help in protecting drugs from these factors that could damage or cause reactions when consumed. Several benefits associated with aluminum foil make it an attractive choice for pharmaceutical packaging. Aluminum is a reliable material that provides excellent barrier properties, making the drug safe from harmful substances like moisture and light, etc. Moreover, aluminum also does not react when comes in contact with drugs which makes it safer to use than other materials such as plastics or paper. This means there should be no adverse effects on customers' health if they consume these products after being packaged using aluminum foil wrappers. The high durability of aluminum also offers protection against punctures and tears during transportation which can lead to potential contamination risks.
On the basis of Type, the global aluminum foil for pharmaceutical packaging market is segmented into PTP, Child Safety PTP, Cold-Stamping Forming Aluminum Foil, and Other.
PTP stands for Printed-to-Print, which is the most popular type of aluminum foil for pharmaceutical packaging. Aluminum PTP wrappers are made from a thin sheet or strip of aluminum that has been imprinted with graphics and text before being laminated to prevent any scratches on the surface. These secure packages can be seen in many over-the-counter health care products such as creams, ointments, pills, tablets, and more.
Child Safety PTP is a type of aluminum foil that has been specifically designed to be tamper-resistant, so it will help protect children from accidentally ingesting harmful substances. They are often used for over-the-counter medications and prescription drugs which can pose risks if they fall into the wrong hands. These packages typically come in an array of colors (i.e., blue, green, or yellow), ensuring they stand out against other types of packaging materials on store shelves, which can help reduce the chance of children mistaking them for candy. Children may not be able to open these packages themselves, requiring adults or older siblings to do so when needed. This is especially important in households with infants and toddlers who are prone to putting things into their mouths without realizing they could harm themselves if left unsupervised.
Cold Stamping Formed Aluminum Foils are characterized by their uniformity with few defects because each package is made individually using a stamping machine before being sealed shut with adhesive around the edges. These aluminum foils are often used for the packaging of pharmaceuticals, especially oral drugs and medicines by injection. This type of foil is surprisingly strong considering its thin gauge. It can withstand high heat without melting like other types of aluminum foils such as the PTP (Precision Rolled Tissue) or RTJF (Roll-to-the-Justable). This foil also offers a lower cost compared to more expensive materials, which makes it ideal for use in developing countries where limited resources exist. Since this metallic material has been found to be safe for humans during heated processing steps, these wrappers have become popular with drug companies who work with powdered products that need to go through processes involving hot water or steam baths before being packaged.
On the basis of Application, the global aluminum foil for pharmaceutical packaging market is segmented into Oral Drug, Medicine by Injection, Drugs for External Use.
Oral drugs are any medications that contain ingredients meant to be taken orally, like tablets and capsules. The aluminum foil for pharmaceutical packaging is used in this application as an exterior surface of a drug package. Aluminum foils can come in various sizes including square-shaped, round or oval shapes and size ranges between 20 mm x 30 cm to 300 mm x 400 mm, depending on the shape of the product being packaged.
Aluminum foil is widely used for pharmaceutical packing in medicine by injection to protect the drug from oxidation. It can also be utilized as a barrier against moisture, oxygen, and other environmental influences that might cause degradation of the active ingredient. Aluminum Foil is cheap, recyclable, and lightweight with high strength properties which are what make it such an attractive packaging material for medicines by injection globally.
Aluminum foil is used for drug packaging in the application of Drugs For External Use. The aluminum film acts as a barrier to moisture and oxygen, which can degrade medications such as antibiotics and topical ointment. Often aluminum foils are coated with polymers or other materials that provide additional protection against outside agents. Aluminum films also protect drugs from being tampered with while they’re being stored or transported between destinations.
On the basis of Region, the global aluminum foil for the pharmaceutical packaging market is segmented into North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Middle East & Africa. North America is the largest aluminum foil for the pharmaceutical packaging market in terms of Value. Europe comes next with a share of 32%. The Asia Pacific and Latin America, on the other hand, are expected to grow at high rates during the forecast period.
The increasing awareness about the health benefits of aluminum foil aids in driving the market for pharmaceutical packaging. In addition, due to advancements in technology and innovations like new formulations that are more effective against antimicrobials, there is a shift from traditional polymers to the aluminum foil which plays an important role as one of several barriers protecting drugs throughout their life cycles. As well, Global economic development across countries has led to increased disposable income-generating demand on healthcare products such as medicines by injection or oral drug medicine by injection among others. Further, a rising aging population with a high prevalence of chronic diseases also boosts growth prospects for these applications over the forecast period 2021-2028. Moreover, increasing investments in research & innovation activities around this application area have resulted in the introduction of new medicines with novel methods of administration which has also fueled the need for packaging materials.
