Three Trends Beverage Packagers Must Watch to Meet Demand

oem

april 18, 2025

Sustainability and recyclability are driving changes in how beverages are packaged. Thus, beverage company representatives see three trends as key to adapting to the changing consumer landscape, revolving around size, flavor, and type of packaged beverages.

That’s according to PMMI Business Intelligence’s “Beverage Industry Packaging Trends,” a report done in collaboration with Advantage Research to provide PMMI member companies and the broader industry with insights into beverage packaging trends that will impact the packaging and processing industry. The research stems from a quantitative online survey conducted from Nov. 21, 2024, to Jan. 21, 2025, and fifteen in-depth interviews conducted between Dec. 2024 and Jan. 2025 among CPG companies and contract packagers in the beverage industry.
