The Cold Chain Packaging Market was valued at USD 20.08 billion in 2020, and it is projected to be worth USD 36.65 billion by 2031, registering a CAGR of approximately 10.36% during the forecast period (2022 - 2031).
Counting every nation, every segment of the society, and every link of the supply chain contribution, global food waste totals 1.3 billion metric ton annually (source: FAO). The suffering from this staggering loss was further aggravated in 2020, due to the disruption in the food model caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
The relief plan developed by the US Produce Industry Group estimated the loss in a single five-day period, of 100 million restaurant meals, 30 million school lunches, and 15 million school breakfasts. The entire fresh produce industry supply chain is reeling from such a sudden and immediate shut down of an estimated 40% of all produce consumed in America. (source: Agri Pulse).
Considering the spike in e-commerce, insulated packaging is expected to see strong sales with smaller e-commerce and food delivery formats across meal kits and other perishable food and beverage items. As multiple packages containing fresh and frozen items require good insulation, the pandemic-led behavioral change has led to packages being left outdoors for some time. Hence, the pandemic is further expected to witness a significant increase in the demand for cold chain packaging solutions.
Cold chain packaging solutions are essential to the growth of the global trade in perishable products and the worldwide availability of food and health supplies. The rise in consumer demand for perishable food items, growth of international trade due to trade liberalization, and expansion of the organized food retail industry are some of the factors driving the growth of the market.
Increasing stringent regulations, such as the effective implementation of the Food Safety Modernization Act (cold storage warehouse requirement to preserve food), drive the markets growth. Additionally, the rising demand from various industrial applications, such as the medical devices and pharmaceutical industries, are significant contributors to the global cold chain packaging market.
However, In recent times, instability in polystyrene prices, due to the increased gap between demand and supply, has led to a price surge, which is likely to continue during the forecast period. Moreover, the escalated cost of raw materials is boosting the overall cost of the final product.
Key Market Trends
Growth in Pharmaceutical Sector to Augment the Cold Chain Packaging Market
According to Almac Pharma Services, the pipeline of biological drugs in development is becoming more temperature-sensitive, resulting in an increase in the storage of bulk drug substances at frozen temperatures (-40 to -70 C). The company adds that labeling, packing, and distributing cell and gene therapy products often requires products to be stored and processed at ultra-low temperatures (-20 to -80 C), with the products only being defrosted immediately prior to use.
In the year 2020, global biopharma sales were estimated at more than 370 billion dollars. These high-value pharmaceutical products are mostly shipped via the cold chain across the entire distribution network worldwide. Thus, growth in pharmaceuticals is anticipated to propel the cold chain packaging market.
Moreover, the cold chain packaging market is directly influenced by the continuous growth in demand for cold storage medicinal products used in the healthcare industry. Regionally, the cold chain packaging market is dominated by Europe and North America region. This is due to the high number of biopharmaceuticals imports exports in the countries in Europe and North America. These regions are also the innovators for the improvement in the shipping and warehousing of pharmaceutical products.
Further, the market is witnessing an effect due to government regulations regarding the use of materials in cold chain packaging. There is also a strong demand for more sustainable designs, including re-use programs, to reduce the carbon footprint. The interest in temperature-controlled packaging is also impacted by changing regulations and standards. For instance, ISTAs (International Safe Transit Association) temperature profiles were altered within the past five years. Such changes are anticipated to affect the market.

Europe to Hold the Largest Market Share
Europe occupies the major share in the cold chain packaging market and is expected to grow significantly in the forecast period owing to continuous growth in demand for cold storage medicinal products used in the healthcare industry.
Many companies have focused their research and development activities on creating innovative cold chain packaging technologies to stay ahead of the competition. In January 2020, Sofrigam introduced its Coldway Inside Technology, integrated into its temperature-controlled packaging solutions to keep products between 0C and +25 for up to 24 hours and showcased at Temperature Control and Logistics (TCL), one of Europes largest cold chain pharmaceutical logistics congresses.
With the increasing number of pharmaceutical and life sciences companies in France, Pelican BioThermal opened a new service center in Strasbourg, France, in October 2020. The facility was set to provide services for Pelicans customers, supporting the refurbishment, repair, conditioning, and storage of its Crēdo Cube reusable parcel shippers and other temperature-controlled packaging solutions.
B Medical Systems partnered with Cold Chain Technologies to bring end-to-end thermal shipping and storage solutions, such as ultra-low freezers, laboratory/pharmacy refrigerators, laboratory freezers, and medical transport boxes to the life science sector.

Competitive Landscape
The cold chain packaging market is consolidated due to a few players are having a large share in the market. Some of the major players are Cold chain Technologies, Sonoco Thermosafe, Sofrigram, Softbox Systems, Cryopak, Sealed Air Corporation, DGP Intelsius LLC., Amcor Plc, among others.
September 2020 - Sonoco ThermoSafe released its new Pegasus ULD bulk temperature-controlled container which is one of the worlds first passive bulk temperature-controlled containers for pharmaceutical use that is an FAA-approved unit load device. It allows it to speed through existing international ground handling and customs processes at the lowest possible cost.
June 2020 - Softbox launched ECO packaging solution Tempcell ECO, which is a new curbside-recyclable temperature control parcel shipper for the pharma cold chain industry. It is made from 100% corrugated cardboard and utilizes the company's Thermaflute patent-pending plastic-free insulation technology. The product's cardboard is used to create effective insulation layers that offer thermal efficiencies similar to those of traditional expanded polystyrene shippers, whilst being easily and globally recyclable.
