With the increasing popularity of online shopping, the homecare industry has witnessed a momentous shift toward e-commerce. Consumers are highly opting for the convenience of purchasing homecare products online, further prompting homecare companies to adapt & optimize their digital strategies to fulfill the rising customer expectations. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic has efficiently pushed consumers to migrate to online channels for many products involving home care products.

The rising demand for buying household products online is thus driving the global market growth. Many consumers have turned to online shopping, which drove the e-commerce sector boom. The brands that can adopt the shift in buying behaviors & deliver the best user experience form a footprint in the market. Home care brands are focusing on boosting their consumer base by demonstrating their strengths with the usage of naturally derived products, thus driving market growth.

Rising Concerns for Home Hygiene Boost the Demand for Home Care Packaging

With rapidly changing lifestyles, rapid urbanization, and increased spending on household cleaning products, consumers have become highly conscious about maintaining a clean & hygienic environment. It has thus led to a rise in the demand for organic & sustainable cleaning products. The home care brands believe that the COVID-19 pandemic has made consumers globally more aware of the need to follow hygiene practices, at a personal level and at home, to decrease the chances of infection, and has boomed as a trend in the long-run.

In addition, the pandemic has generated health awareness of the importance of sanitation and cleanliness to protect their health & avoid the spread of disease. The increasing concerns about home hygiene have thus boosted the demand for several home care products such as detergents, surface cleaners, toiletries, and others, further driving the market growth. Retailers are also experiencing an unprecedented demand for various cleaning products such as disinfectants, hand sanitizers, and other household cleaning supplies, thus encouraging the home care packaging industry's growth.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

High Volatility in Raw Material Prices May Restrict the Market Growth

Fluctuating prices of the raw materials utilized in the manufacturing of home care packaging products are the major factor hindering market growth. Prices of glass material have been steady and fluctuated at regular intervals owing to the stock-keeping habit of the packagers. It led to a sudden price increase or volatility, further hampering the market growth. For instance, in December 2020, Saertex announced an increase in price by 5% for its glass fiber material. In addition, the key players also studied the global market for other raw materials, such as paper. For instance, in February 2021, the leading player Smurfit Kappa warned over the increasing cost of raw materials. The company stated that the input prices have increased as consumers have recycled materials less during the pandemic. It has thus affected the prices of the raw materials required for the manufacturing of home care packaging products, further restricting the market growth.
