It has become integral part of packaging solutions that helps us do more with less ranging from electronics, beauty product or food packets, plastic packaging has wide use and application. The first manmade plastic packaging was made by Alexander Parkes in London, who used a material derived from cellulose that was bio-based. It could be heated and formed into a variety of shapes as required. Today, the plastic used for flexible packaging is in great demand because of its unique properties and the protective shield that it provides. It is most widely used for food and beverage packaging as it extends the shelf life of the products while ensuring food safety from microorganisms and external conditions. These are reusable, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly materials.

Plastic packaging is the most common material medium used for the packaging of food and beverages ever since their invention. It has been transformed over time into food grade packing material approved by regulatory bodies.The food packaging trends have changed in terms of application and technology and have become a visual part of the company's brand popularity. The rise in nuclear families and disposable income has given rise to smaller packing sizes of food and related products. From shelf bottles, lids, and containers to packing for frozen food, airtight films and wraps, plastics are used in a wide array of packaging solutions. Additionally, the rise of on-thego and heat-and-eat food products has created demand for plastic flexible packaging solutions in recent times. Food delivery apps and rising e-commerce have further driven the market growth and are expected to grow rapidly over the forecast period as well.The pouch type of flexible packaging is the most widely used form, as they are made from barrier
film, foil, and spout with a cap that supports flowable liquid products. They come in a variety of shapes and sizes, including stand-up pouches, gusseted pouches, pillow pouches, three-side-sealpouches, and liquid pouches. They are designed with flexibility in mind to ease consumer use. They can resist ambient temperatures, and products remain fresh for a long time. These are light-weight, compact and result in minimal waste because they can be reused and recycled. They are cheaper than other materials, resalable and ecofriendly as they have lower carbon footprints that result in less space in landfills.

The lockdowns severely impacted the end-use industries, including the flexible packaging market, but not to a greater extent. Amid the pandemic, online shopping gained momentum, which created demand for flexible packaging. The raw materials were not secured in time due to trnasport and immobility factors affecting movements. When material, labor, and capital became scarce, manufacturers rethought their strategies. To recover post pandemic, they increased production capacities, with innovative approaches and affordable prices, to meet consumer demands. An increase in use of sterilising solutions as a result of the coronavirus epidemic is also driving the demand for the overall industry.
