Packaging in 2023: The big picture
In 2023, packaging in Brazil was seeing growth and innovation across various industries, such as food and beverages, beauty and personal care, home care, and hot drinks. Food packaging continued to see flexible packaging dominating, with metal food cans also seeing something of a resurgence in recent years, driven by consumer preferences for products with longer shelf lives and convenient storage solutions.
2023 key trends
The Brazilian packaging industry was experiencing the emergence of several key trends in 2023. Firstly, sustainability continues to be a dominant force, with companies adopting eco-friendly packaging solutions and promoting recyclable materials.
Metal food cans the main packaging in processed fruit and vegetables in Brazil
Processed fruit and vegetables is dominated by shelf stable fruit and vegetables, which is, in turn, dominated by shelf stable vegetables. With metal food cans the dominant pack type in all shelf stable food categories, they are therefore also the preferred pack type for overall processed fruit and vegetables in Brazil.
Flexible packaging leads the way in Brazilian hot drinks
In 2023, flexible packaging solidified its position as the dominant pack type in coffee, Brazil's largest hot drinks category. This trend is anticipated to continue throughout the forecast period, with flexible packaging continuing to gain traction in the hot drinks market due to its affordability, durability and convenience, compared to rigid plastic alternatives.
Metal beverage cans and glass bottles competing for share in lager in Brazil
In 2023, beer continued to dominate the alcoholic drinks packaging market in Brazil, with metal beverage cans and glass bottles competing head-to-head in the lager category. Metal cans remained the leading packaging choice for domestic lager, accounting for nearly 90% of retail unit volumes.
Sustainable packaging takes centre stage in Brazilian bath and shower
In 2023, the bath and shower care category in Brazil saw significant advancements in sustainable packaging. Radox introduced refillable PET bottles made from 50% post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic, significantly reducing environmental impact.
Unilever leads the charge in recyclable plastic packaging initiatives in Brazil's home care market
In Brazil, home care companies are increasingly focusing on promoting their recyclable packaging to consumers. The containers used for cleaning products are primarily made from various materials, with plastic being the most common due to its ability to preserve products for extended periods.
