Parchment Paper Market

Anticipated to achieve a valuation of US$ 1,064.2 million by 2023, the global parchment paper market is set for substantial growth, with a projected escalation to US$ 1,789 million by 2033. This trajectory reflects a consistent expansion, characterized by a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 5.7%.

As the market continues to evolve, the parchment paper industry is poised to play a pivotal role in catering to diverse needs, contributing to its significant valuation by the end of the projection period.

As an ideal substitute for clamshell packaging, parchment baking paper is gaining prominence, with manufacturers actively seeking ways to reduce the reliance on clamshell packaging as a primary means of transportation. This ongoing trend is expected to persist over the next decade, fostering a conducive environment for the increased sales of parchment paper. The substantial increase in demand for greaseproof paper within the baking and packaging sectors is poised to elevate product sales, fueled by the growing preference for packaged foods and advancements in packaging technology, contributing significantly to the industry’s revenue growth.

In North America, the growth prospects for parchment paper are exceptionally promising, with the region projected to dominate the market, reaching a 24.2% market share by the end of 2023 and a commanding 36% by the forecast period’s conclusion. This growth is attributed to a thriving packaging industry, increasing demand for packaged foods, and substantial investments in the food and beverage sector. The implementation of stringent food safety norms further boosts the market, particularly for safe and hygienic food packaging solutions like unbleached parchment paper, commonly used for wrapping products such as burgers and bakery items.

The convenience-driven demand from industries like baking and confectionery, coupled with the overall growth in food services, is expected to fuel substantial sales growth in India.
