Description

Dunnage Packaging Market: Overview

Dunnage packaging refers to the material that is used in packaging for protecting, supporting, and securing the products in the package. The more delicate the product, the more dunnage it requires. The shipping and handling process is made much smoother when efficient dunnage is used in transportation. It is highly useful because it prevents the products from moving and also absorbs shocks, ensuring that the product remains unharmed. Apart from shock absorption and damage protection, dunnage also protects products from moisture and undesirable climatic conditions such as rain.

As the demand from electronics, automotive, food & beverage, aerospace, and healthcare domains shoots up, the global market for dunnage packaging will gain traction over the forecast period, registering a substantial CAGR.
