Paper and paperboard have garnered attention as major material types in pet food packaging for their eco-friendly and biodegradable properties that align with the growing consumer demand for sustainable and eco-friendly packaging solutions.

Metal cans are tamper-evident and have a premium aesthetic appeal, making them suitable for premium and specialty pet food products. As pet owners increasingly prioritize the health and well-being of their pets, the preservation and sustainability of metal cans contribute to their significant growth in the pet food packaging market.

Dry pet food offers efficient storage, longer shelf life, and cost-effectiveness compared to wet or frozen pet foods. Its lightweight nature makes it well-suited for various packaging types, including bags and containers, contributing to its dominance in the market.
