According to an analysis done by Report Linker, the demand for the glass packaging is anticipated to rise due to the customer demand for pure, green, and sustainable food and beverage packaging.
Due to the fact that glass containers are chemically pure, inert and transparent, glass packaging is considered to be safer than the metal and plastic packages, fuelling the demand for the glass containers. Glass containers are considered to be suited for packing liquor, pharmaceutical/life saving drugs and food items.
Unlike plastic, cans, and multi layered cartons, glass containers do not need a petroleum-based plastic layer or other chemical additive to preserve the taste of foods and beverages, avoid corrosion or decrease gas permeability.
