Overview


Currently, inhalation therapy is the best option for lung diseases like Asthma, COPD etc. This local therapy allows the use of a smaller dose and reduces systemic side effects. The packaging for inhalation devices includes paper and metal made materials. The packaging for inhalation drugs should not alter any properties of the main component and it should be stable throughout the life cycle of the product until it reaches the end user.

Rising demand for packaging material to increase the protection of drug substances led to robust growth of the market. Inhaler device packaging is used to retain the quality and efficiency of the formulation. The packaging material is an integral part of pharmaceutical products and intended to protect the product from the external environment. Containments impact the stability of the drug and can affect the health of patients. Rising concern of contamination led to the potential growth of the market. Further changing regulatory scenarios to prevent the drug contamination led to robust growth of the market. Additionally, the rapid advancement of technologies led to developed of the fully automated process of manufacturing. All these factors led to the potential growth of market.

Asia Pacific region created a potential opportunistic space for manufacturers due to a large number of pharmaceutical manufacturers in these regions. They are expected to witness the highest growth rate in global inhaler device packaging market. They account significant share in the global market. It was followed by North America and Europe inhaler device packaging market. Rest of the world is expected to account significant share in global inhaler device packaging market due to increasing adoption.
