The Anti-counterfeit Pharmaceuticals and Cosmetics Packaging Market size is forecasted to reach US$ 111.6 billion by 2027, after growing at a CAGR of 15.8% during the forecast period 2022-2027.

The Anti-counterfeit Pharmaceuticals and Cosmetics Packaging Market size is forecasted to reach US$ 111.6 billion by 2027, after growing at a CAGR of 15.8% during the forecast period 2022-2027. The counterfeiting malpractice has been increasing rapidly and has become a matter of concern for several original cosmetics and pharmaceutical manufacturers all around the world. Hence, a wide range of anti-counterfeit technologies are being adopted worldwide in order to prevent the practice of counterfeiting in the pharmaceuticals and cosmetics industries. Some of the common technologies include holograms, barcodes, mass serialization, tamper evidence technology, radio frequency identification (RFID), and more. European countries sold the highest amount of exported beauty and skincare goods such as lotion bottles, mascara tubes, creams, foundation, and more, during 2020 with shipments valued at US$ 26.7 billion, which indicates around 44% of the global total. This is followed by Asian exporters with related shipments at 43%, and North America by 10.7%. Such increasing demand of cosmetics products in multiple regions across the world is expected to increase the demand for anti-counterfeit packaging of these cosmetic products, in order to maintain the brand’s authenticity and protect the consumers from using fake or duplicate products. An increase in demand from the pharmaceuticals and cosmetics industries acts as the major driver for the market. On the other hand, high costs associated with anti-counterfeit technology systems is most likely to confine the market and hinder its growth.

COVID-19 Impact

There is no doubt that the COVID-19 lockdown has impacted the anti-counterfeit cosmetics packaging industry too. Strict lockdowns all over the world interrupted the entire supply and trade of raw materials, which in turn, resulted in slow developments, and manufacturing from the cosmetics & skincare industry. However, a slow recovery in new cosmetics, and skincare production has been witnessed across many countries around the world since the end of 2020. According to recent research published on The Business Line, India reported a growth of around 20% on annual retail sales of cosmetics and other skincare products during the fourth quarter of 2020 and is expected to grow in the upcoming years. In this way, a slow and steady increase in production activities from the cosmetics & skincare industry is expected to increase the demand for anti-counterfeit packaging of such cosmetic products using technologies such as holograms, barcodes, mass serialization, tamper evidence technology, radio frequency identification (RFID), and more, in order to maintain the brand’s authenticity and protect the consumers from using fake or duplicate products. All of these factors have led to the growth of the market and it is expected to rise in the upcoming years as well.

Hence, increased demand for cosmetics and personal care products also increases the demand for anti-counterfeit packaging of these products, thus, resulting in the growth of the market in the upcoming years.

An increase in demand for medical drugs and medicines is likely to increase demand for the product

According to a recent study published on JAMA Network, there has been an increase in demand for drugs from public hospitals globally in comparison to the pre-COVID-19 period. It states that drugs like Azithromycin, Hydroxychloroquine, Corticosteroids, and Heparin have increased by 11.45%, 6.14%, 24.68%, and 49.05% respectively.
