Market Challenges And Opportunities

Global Filling Machines Market Drivers:

Recent technological innovations to drive the demand for automated filling machine

Use of automated filling machines eases the process on the line of assembly and increases the efficiency of the complete packaging process. The packaging industry has witnessed explosive growth in the past few years, and as a result, several versatile packaging such as automatic filling machines are being introduced in the market. This is in turn capturing the attention of consumers looking for next-generation equipment. Thus, the demand for automated filling machines is increasing all over the world, which is expected to boost growth of the global filling machines market over the forecast period.

Increasing demand from the food and beverage industry to augment the market growth

In past few years, the food and beverages industry has shown strong growth, as the industry continues to move from imitation to innovation. The demand for packed food as well as beverages is increasing all over the world, which in turn is driving the innovation of novel technology in the packaging industry. As the food service industry continues to show increasing growth across several regions, the demand for filling machines is increasing in the market. This factor is thus expected to drive growth of the global filling machines market during the forecast period.

Global Filling Machines Market Opportunities:

Rising urbanization, and health consciousness among consumers is expected to present growth opportunities in the global filling machines market during the forecast period. Filling machines are easy to use, maintain, and offer excellent performance, due to which they are widely used for packaging several industrial and food products. Due to increasing urbanization, demand for healthy food products is increasing, which further is driving the demand for filling machines. Thus, the market is likely to witness business opportunities in the coming future.

Growing applications for automated filling machines to bring in lucrative opportunities in the global filling machine market over the forecast period. With increasing automation, the applications for filling machines continue to increase. The automated machines take care of the repetitive work of placing and tightening caps on each bottle. The pharmaceutical, e-liquid, food and beverage industries are among several other applications of automatic filling tools. The global filling machine market is likely to benefit from the increasing growth of these industries.

Global Filling Machines Market Restraints:

Lack of standardization of machines, owing to changing regulations to hamper the market pace

Standardization of equipment is intended for packaging commodities, which includes, particular safety specifications for a machine or a class of machines. Such standards cover hazardous conditions, risks, and hazardous events, and further apply to the design, construction, and instructions for using the packaging equipment. However, these standards and regulations differ region to region, due to which manufacturers face challenges while developing machines specific to a region’s regulations, which is further expected to hinder growth of the global filling machines market during the forecast period.

High cost involved with initial purchase and maintenance to hamper the market

To set up the packaging industry, companies need high capital investment, as the cost of the machineries is high. Several packaging businesses adopt modular filling equipment, which offers labeling and sealing simultaneously, however, the total cost of maintenance increases exponentially, which further directly impacts adoption of this machinery. The initial cost of purchasing filling machine depends on size and the number of operations offered by the equipment, which can also be high in some regions. These factors are thus, expected to hamper growth of the global filling machines market during the forecast period.
