South Korea Soft Drinks Packaging Market - By Packaging Material (Glass, Paper, Paper, Plastic), Products (Cans, Bottles, Pouches, Boxes), Type of Beverage (Carbonated Drinks, Milk, Water, Juices, Energy Drinks, Alcoholic Drinks), Trends, Forecast -

South Korea’s soft drink packaging market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.3% in terms of sales volume over the forecast period 2017 - 2022.

Soft drink packaging showed a moderate growth rate in 2014 due to the better performance of rigid plastic packaging in certain soft drink categories. However, the glass packaging market is being replaced by plastic packaging in South Korea. Non-alcoholic beverages accounted for more than 8% of the overall consumer expenditure in 2014. With growing disposable incomes, South Korean consumers are seeking products that offer convenience. Manufacturers have introduced a new concept of carbonates including natural ingredients to capitalize on the health-conscious consumers. Powder concentrates with less sugar and lower calories are popular as a result of the health and fitness trend.

The majority of carbonated soft drinks are sold in aluminum cans and PET bottles. They are also sold in bulk in the food service industry through soda fountains. Only a very small portion of CSDs are still packaged in glass bottles, and these are usually packaged in smaller sizes, due to changing consumer preferences and lifestyles as well as increased costs associated with transporting heavy, low-volume glass containers versus high volume-to-packaging ratio PET bottles and aluminum cans.

South Korea’s soft drink packaging market is segmented on the basis of material (plastic, paper, metal, and glass), soft drink product (juices, bottled water, energy drinks, ready-to-drink (RTD), and carbonates), and products (beverage cans, PET bottles, and boxes).
