Global Glass Packaging Market Will Climb Above USD 59.94 billion in 2019 : Transparency Market Research



Transparency Market Research is Published new Market Report " Glass Packaging Market for Food and Beverage, Pharmaceuticals, Beer and Other Alcoholic Beverages - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2013 - 2019," the global market for glass packaging was valued at USD 47.43 billion in 2012 and is expected to reach USD 59.94 billion by 2019, growing at a CAGR of 3.4% from 2013 to 2019. In terms of volume, global demand was 45.71 million tons in 2012 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.1% from 2013 to 2019.


Dark colored glass bottles are often used in packaging of beer as glass helps in deflecting UV rays, thereby reducing the occurrence of "skunky" beer. Rise in global consumption of beer is expected to be one of the primary factors driving the glass packaging market. In addition, the growth of the healthcare industry and rising use of glass bottles for storage of medicines due to its sterility and reusability is expected to augment the demand for glass packaging over the next few years. However, growing popularity of plastics and its increasing application scope for packaging is expected to hamper the growth of the market. Growing consumer preference towards glass for packaging of food, beverages and chemicals is expected to open new opportunities for the growth of the market over the next few years.

Alcoholic beverages (excluding beer) were the largest application segment of the glass packaging market and accounted for over 50% of the total demand in 2012. However, the consumption of glass in the packaging of beer is expected to witness the fastest growth on account of increasing consumption in Asia Pacific and Eastern Europe coupled with the preference towards glass as packaging material. Alcoholic beverages and pharmaceuticals are expected to show robust demand for glass packaging over the next few years due to its sterility.

Asia Pacific was the largest market for glass packaging and accounted for over 16.1 billion of the overall revenue in 2012. Growing consumption of beer and alcoholic beverages in countries such as India, China, Thailand, Australia and Indonesia are expected to boost the demand for glass as packaging medium in these countries. Europe was the second largest market for glass packaging accounting for over 13.34 million tons of overall demand in 2012.

Biometrics is used to identify and authenticate an individual's identity by their biological characteristics or traits. This technology is used in the healthcare industry for the purpose of patient and medical staff's verification and access control. Use of biometric identity solutions reflects prevention and minimization of healthcare fraud and resource wastage while also improving healthcare safety, quality and patient privacy. Rapid technological advancements in healthcare infrastructure, increasing accuracy and performance levels, along with reduced complexity and cost of biometric devices are some of the major factors driving the biometrics growth in healthcare. Furthermore, growing preference for reducing healthcare expenditure by minimizing the risk of security breaches and medical identity thefts with the use of biometrics, support the growing acceptance of biometric systems in the healthcare industry worldwide.Growing security concerns with healthcare facilities and medical insurance providers has impelled the demand for biometrics solutions in healthcare.

The global healthcare biometrics market can be categorized into biometric technologies and their applications in various authentication processes. Fingerprint recognition technology is the most prominently used biometric technology and will make up more than 50% percent of biometrics demand in healthcare industry through 2019. Availability of a wide range of fingerprint recognition devices, introduction of portable fingerprint scanners and their efficacy in healthcare are the major factors driving the demand for fingerprint technology. Based on adaptability to cost effective security enhanced formats, AFIS (automated fingerprint identification systems), will continue to lead in terms of market revenues. It is expected that the global market for fingerprint biometric devices will grow at a CAGR of more than 20% from 2013 to 2019.

On the other hand, vein, face and iris recognition are expected to witness fastest growth among the other biometric technologies and will account for the most rapidly expanding demand from applications in the logical access control. Demand for these products will benefit from more strict government regulations and industry standards covering the safety, security, and functional features of biometric systems. Logical access control, physical access control and transaction authentication are the three prime application areas of healthcare biometrics. Use of logical access is essential for user's authentication to permit access to computer systems in hospitals and healthcare facilities. Thus, in terms of allocations, logical access control segment is expected to dominate the global healthcare biometrics market during the given forecast period of 2013 to 2019.

Geographically, North America is expected to remain the largest market for healthcare biometrics technologies. Currently, North America along with Europe captures more than 75% of the market share. In the developing world, Asia-Pacific region will provide the largest and most diverse sales opportunities for biometrics security solutions in the healthcare sector due to budding domestic and export markets for nationally produced biometric devices.

The healthcare biometrics market is highly fragmented and consists of many large and small players. The competition in this market is characterized by market consolidation activities, partnerships, and intensive mergers and acquisitions as well as intensive cost-containment measures. Some of the major companies currently active in the healthcare biometrics market include 3M Cogent, Inc., Bio-Key International, Inc., DigitalPersona, Inc., NEC Corporation, M2SYS LLC, Cross Match Technologies, Inc., Suprema, Inc., and Siemens AG.
