MARKET ANALYSIS
The utilization of metal packaging is majorly driven by several end-use industries, including automotive, food & beverages, pharmaceuticals, and consumer goods. Metal cans are widely used for storage containers, soft drinks, fruit and vegetable juice, canned soups and stews, and metal products. Aerosol cans are widely used for deodorant and pharmaceutical spray production in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. In the region, the personal care & cosmetics industry constantly innovates and expands by offering a distinct range of cosmetics and specialized products for different skin types to cater to a wide range of consumer preferences. With this, the demand for metal packaging products is increasing. Further, the increasing use of recycled metals and post-consumer recycled materials is expected to offer lucrative opportunities for market growth.
GROWTH DRIVERS AND CHALLENGES
The increasing demand for canned foods & beverages and the growing personal care & cosmetics industry are a few factors boosting MENA metal packaging market growth. Changing consumer preferences contribute to the increased demand for on-the-go and ready-to-eat options such as canned food & beverages and packaged food products. Metal packaging offers exceptional barrier protection against moisture, light, and air for cosmetic formulations. This airtight and light-resistant protection ensures that the products remain fresh, prevent degradation of active ingredients, and maintain original consistency and color. Metal tubes and containers can endure stacking, transportation, and handling without puncturing or leaking. This durability is essential for protecting the products from damage and ensuring safe delivery to consumers. The personal care and cosmetics industry is constantly innovating and expanding by offering gender-neutral products, a distinct range of cosmetics, and specialized products for different skin types to cater to a wide range of consumer preferences. As per a report published by the Chalhoub Group in 2023, Saudi consumers spend the most on beauty products. The report also revealed that fragrances accounted for 46% of Saudi consumer spending.
The availability of alternatives poses a challenge to MENA metal packaging market. Metal packaging faces intense competition from alternative packaging materials, particularly glass and plastics. Plastics offer low cost, lightweight, and great design flexibility, while glass offers premium aesthetic appeal. Other environmentally friendly packaging materials, such as paper, glass, and traditional plastic, are less expensive than metal packaging. Moreover, biodegradable cans are progressively gaining commercial acceptance. Hence, the availability of alternatives hampers the growth of the market.

IMPACT OF COVID-19 PANDEMIC/IMPACT OF GEOPOLITICAL SCENARIO/IMPACT OF RECESSION
Before the COVID-19 pandemic, the metal packaging market was significantly driven by rising demand for food and beverages and pharmaceutical products. In early 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected the growth of the metal packaging market. The mitigation strategies to combat the effects of the pandemic negatively impacted the growth of various industries. Industries such as packaging, consumer goods, automotive, food & beverages, and cosmetics were adversely affected by the sudden disruptions in value chains due to the sudden closure of national and international boundaries.
The penetration of e-commerce platforms and home delivery services in the region increased during the pandemic as the brick-and-mortar stores were closed. The development of e-commerce platforms positively influenced the demand for metal packaging, as aluminum containers are widely used to contain food products. In 2021, rising vaccination rates contributed to improvements in the overall conditions in different countries, which led to conducive environments for the chemicals & materials industry. The sales of metal packaging increased with the resumption of production and sales operations in end-use industries.
