Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Compostable Foodservice Packaging Market

Lockdowns, travel restrictions, and business shutdowns due to the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected economies and industries in various countries in North America, Europe, Asia Pacific (APAC), South & Central America, and the Middle East & Africa (MEA). The crisis disturbed global supply chains, manufacturing activities, delivery schedules, and essential and nonessential product sales. Various companies announced possible delays in product deliveries and a slump in future sales of their products in 2020. Further, the international travel bans imposed by various governments in Europe, Asia Pacific, and North America forced several companies to discontinue their collaboration and partnership plans. All these factors hampered the packaging industry in 2020 and early 2021, thereby restraining the growth of various markets related to this packaging industry, including the compostable foodservice packaging market.

Before the COVID-19 outbreak, the compostable foodservice packaging market was mainly driven by the rising demand from the hotel industry. However, in 2020, various industries had to slow down their operations due to disruptions in value chains caused by the shutdown of national and international boundaries. The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the supply chain of key raw materials and disturbed manufacturing processes due to restrictions imposed by government authorities in various countries. Such factors reduced the production of sustainable packaging products, including compostable packaging.
