Yogesh Mudras, managing director, Informa Markets in India, commented, “India’s processing and packaging sector is advancing rapidly, reflecting the broader industrial transformation underway in the country. The packaging market is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of nearly 11%, reaching over US$ 140 billion by 2029. This growth is driven by rising demand in food and beverage packaging, expected to cross US$ 52.5 billion by 2030, along with significant contributions from F&B, Beverages, pharmaceuticals, personal care, and dairy sectors.
“At ProPak India 2025, we aim to provide a dynamic platform that brings these developments to life—showcasing cutting-edge machinery, responsible materials, and digital integration, while fostering collaboration between solution providers and end-users to shape a resilient and sustainable industry future,” he added.
The packaging and processing ecosystem in India is rapidly transitioning from a cost-efficient model to one that is value-driven. Sustainability, automation, and regulatory compliance are becoming critical benchmarks, positioning the industry for transformational growth in the coming years. Notably, over 75% of global buyers are willing to pay a premium for sustainable packaging, and nearly 68 percent express concern about plastic waste—fuelling innovation in smart, traceable, and eco-friendly packaging solutions, the organizers said..
