Every aspect of our lives is becoming smarter and more intelligent with each passing year. Consumer expectations are growing sky high and industries across the domain are introducing smarter products and systems to provide a more personalized consumer experience. The packaging industry is no exception. Top packaging manufacturers have already started to upgrade their traditional packaging systems with more intelligent, connected, and smart packaging solutions to meet customer demands.

Usage of packaging only for the protection of goods and branding has become a thing of the past. Today, with a modernized lifestyle, the growing risk of food spoilage, and increasing focus on environmental sustainability, consumers are expecting more from the packaging, and intelligent packaging is the answer.

Before we explore the revolutionizing intelligent packaging technologies, let’s first understand what is intelligent packaging.

These technologies are designed to improve product quality, ensure safety, prevent counterfeiting, and increase product shelf life.

Some intelligent packaging solutions like barcodes and QR codes are developed specifically to increase the traceability of a product and perform specific functions like tracking and recording the product information at the business and buyer level.

Intelligent packaging adds value at both the business and consumer end. Through information tracking and sharing done by intelligent packaging, a consumer gets the opportunity to learn more about the product and the company, while packaging manufacturers can learn more about the consumer purchase pattern through careful analysis of information generated by intelligent packaging, and leverage it to provide a more exceptional experience to the consumer.

While intelligent packaging is still in the nascent stages of evolution, the potential and benefits of intelligent packaging are immense. Intelligent packaging communicates with the real world, thus adding diagnostic and indicator functionality to it. With packaging companies investing in sustainable packaging solutions, the global intelligent packaging market reached US$ 19.7 billion in 2021.

The packaging industry is on the verge of a major paradigm shift. If we closely analyze emerging technologies, growth trends, and sales projections, we can get a preview of what will packaging industry look like by 2031 and beyond.
