Jul 03, 2023

With the improvement of people's consumption level and the enhancement of consumption ability, the competition in the cosmetics market is becoming increasingly fierce. In this context, the packaging form and material selection of cosmetics have become increasingly important. Different types of cosmetics require packaging that is suitable for their own characteristics, so the diversification of packaging design and materials becomes the key to enhancing product competitiveness.
Generally speaking, the packaging forms of cosmetics include solid cosmetics, powder cosmetics, liquid and lotion cosmetics and spray packaging. Among them, many packaging forms combine with cardboard boxes to form the sales packaging of cosmetics.
Currently, plastic containers are still the main form of cosmetic packaging in the Chinese market. However, with the increase in product types and the intensification of market competition, domestic daily chemical enterprises have increasingly high requirements for product packaging materials and design. In product packaging, unique design, diverse material applications, and continuous innovation have become key factors in increasing product competitiveness.
So, what is the Market trend of the cosmetics packaging industry? According to the "2022-2027 China Cosmetics Packaging Industry Market Deep Research and Investment Strategy Prediction Report" by China Research Puhua Research Institute, the Chinese cosmetics industry is showing a highly prosperous, large-scale, and fast-growing trend. With the stable growth of the domestic economy and the improvement of people's consumption level, the cosmetics industry has been able to develop rapidly. Affected by the epidemic, the scale of China's cosmetics market reached 507.8 billion yuan in 2020, a year-on-year increase of 6.3%. In 2021, the market growth rate has increased, and it is expected to recover to a growth rate of 10% to 11% in the coming years. It is predicted that by 2025, the scale of China's cosmetics market is expected to reach nearly 900 billion yuan.
With the popularization of consumer habits and makeup awareness, cosmetics have become an indispensable daily necessities in residents' lives. In order to protect the interests of consumers and regulate the healthy development of the industry, the government has successively issued a series of relevant guidance and policies, such as the "Guiding Opinions on Accelerating the Construction of the Adverse Reaction Monitoring System for Cosmetics" and the "Notice on Implementing Environmental Protection Responsibilities in the Cosmetics Field". These measures have further promoted the standardization and sustainable development of the cosmetics packaging industry.
At the same time, we can also observe some new trends gradually emerging in the cosmetics packaging industry. For example, the rise of domestic products has become a trend. In recent years, the rise of domestic brands has received widespread attention from young consumers. The younger generation of consumers has shown great interest in Chinese elements, and their recognition and curiosity towards traditional culture and local brands have driven the popularity of domestic products. Therefore, the use of Chinese elements in packaging design will greatly enhance the competitiveness of products in the market.
In addition, the environmental friendliness of product packaging materials has become one of the important factors affecting consumer purchasing decisions. With the increasingly serious problems of environmental pollution and white pollution, consumers' awakening of environmental awareness has also caused a demand for transformation and upgrading in the cosmetics packaging industry. More and more cosmetic OEM/ODM companies are adopting environmentally friendly materials and launching sustainable packaging solutions to meet consumers' demand for environmentally friendly products.
In short, the cosmetics packaging industry is facing enormous development opportunities and challenges. Through unique packaging design, diverse material applications, and increased environmental awareness, enterprises can enhance the competitiveness of their products, meet consumer needs, and stand out in the fierce market competition. In the future, with the continuous innovation of technology and consumers' pursuit of quality and environmentally friendly products, the cosmetics packaging industry will continue to develop and bring more opportunities to industry participants.
