GCC Rigid Plastic Packaging Industry Overview
The rigid plastic packaging industry is fragmented in GCC, with market incumbents such as Takween, Zamil Plastics, and Packaging Products Company, accompanied by several regional packaging firms. Although the barriers to entry for new players are high, regional packaging companies are witnessing value in foraying, especially in the rigid packaging industry, owing to significant demand from industrial, food, beverage, and other end-user industries.
- November 2023: Spinneys, a prominent fresh food retailer in the United Arab Emirates, partnered with packaging manufacturer Al Bayader International to roll out recycled plastic packaging (rPET) in its outlets. Al Bayader, in collaboration with regional partners, collects and converts plastic waste into post-consumer recycled plastic (rPET), effectively reducing landfill waste.
