Water soluble packaging is a form of packaging made from biodegradable materials that dissolve in water leaving behind a harmless and non-toxic aqueous solution. Better solubility in water with minimum residue and good impact resistance makes them a favorable packaging material in various industries. Water soluble packaging is manufactured in different grades, including cold water soluble PVA grades as well as hot water soluble PVA grades. However, water soluble packaging products such as films, bags and pouches are produced from polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH), which is a synthetic polymer highly soluble in water. Polyvinyl alcohol is an odorless and colorless polymer, which possesses high tensile strength, flexibility, non-toxic, and adhesive properties. Water soluble packaging is generally used in the packaging of dyes, detergents, agrochemicals, and other industrial chemicals. Additionally, they are used in the manufacture of disposal bags, laundry bags, and shopping bags.

 

The use of single-use plastic has increased significantly over the past few years. Single-use plastics are not biodegradable; instead they break down into smaller particles. These plastic particles enter the ocean and absorb the toxins present in the ocean. When these toxic particles are consumed by fish, sea birds, and other marine life, it causes severe harm to marine life. Rising awareness regarding the drawbacks of using single-use plastics and government initiatives to ban the use of single-use plastics have significantly driven the growth of the water soluble packaging market. To prevent environmental degradation caused due to excessive use of single-use plastic, the government in various developed and developing countries have imposed stringent regulations against the use of single-use plastic. More than 112 countries, states, and cities across the world have already imposed bans on various single-use plastic goods.Growing public awareness about environmental concerns has resulted in higher demand for sustainable packaging and processing operations in the developed and developing countries. Moreover, the growth in various industries and factories has increased the demand for a sustainable packaging solution over the past few years. As the packaging industry has the biggest impact on the environment, the demand for sustainable and eco-friendly packaging solutions drives the growth of water soluble packaging market.

 

The COVID-19 outbreak has affected economies and industries in various countries due to lockdowns, travel bans, and business shutdowns. Consumer goods is one of the major industries facing serious disruptions such as supply chain breaks, technology events cancellations, and office shutdowns as a result of this outbreak. The US has the highest number of confirmed cases of corona virus compared to Canada and Mexico. This is likely to impact the chemicals & materials industry in the region. Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, the supply chain is likely to get affected. Additionally, the overall manufacturing processes, research, and development activities will also impact market growth.The overall market breakdown due to COVID-19 is also affecting the growth of the North America water soluble packaging market due to shutting down of factories, obstacle in supply chain, and downturn in world economy.

 

Cortec Corporation, Smart Solve Industries, Kuraray Co., Ltd, Amtopack Inc., Sekisui Chemical Co., Ltd, Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation, and Mondi Groupare among the well-established players present in the North American water soluble packaging market.
