This has boosted the growth of the pharmaceutical packaging industry globally. This growth is expected to be highest in the emerging economies of Brazil, Russia, India, and China, especially due to higher generics and contract manufacturing activities. Huge population and favorable demographics of these countries are key drivers behind this growth. Besides, the drug delivery devices and innovative packaging are expected to grow at a faster rate than other segments. Growing preference toward unit dosage packaging will boost this segment further. Increasing packaging cost, stricter global health regulatory, compliance standards, and environmental and political norms are restricting the growth of the market.
