Bottle Blowing Machines Market By Technology Type (Extrusion Blowing Machines, Injection Blowing Machines, Injection Stretch Blowing Machines, Reheat And Blow Molding Machines), By Functionality (Automatic Machines, Semi-Automatic Machines), By End-Use Vertical (Consumer Goods, Food & Beverages, Pharmaceuticals) - Growth, Future Prospects & Competitive Analysis, 2018 – 2026

Overview:

The bottle blowing machines market largely driven by the growing inclination of consumers towards bottled water worldwide. In 2017, the bottle blowing machine market was valued at US$ 2.04 Bn in 2017 and projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.7% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2026. Bottle blowing machine is a mechanical equipment used to manufacture plastic bottles and containers. It is a blow molding technology which is best suited for producing plastic containers into hollow containers with uniform wall thickness. In the bottle blowing process, the preforms are been heated and then are fed into a blow mold where compressed are used for inflating and forming them into finished and whole containers.  

Growing demand for sophisticated bottling solutions expected to augment the growth of the market at a significant rate. Rising need for producing low cost and high quality bottles is facilitating the growth of bottle blowing machine market across the globe. Bottle blowing machines that can deliver maximum flexibility, greater cost efficiency, and higher accuracy are in great demand from several end-use verticals. Such machines will significantly offset the rising cost of production.

Tremendous amount of waste produced through plastic is compelling government to restrict the production and sale of plastic bottles in some geographies, which may restrict the market growth. Moreover, opposition from the environmental protection agencies is another major factor expected to restrain the growth of bottle blowing machine market. Further, the market may also witness growing inclination of manufacturers’ towards bio-based products or flexible packaging.
