Global Sustainable Healthcare Packaging Market Growth | CAGR 7.4% to USD 197.65 Billion By 2033
Sustainable Healthcare Packaging Market Insights 2025–2033 | Strong CAGR of 7.4% Forecast By 2025-2033
The global sustainable healthcare packaging market focuses on eco-friendly packaging materials, methods, and systems used in the pharmaceutical, med-device, and healthcare supply chain. This market covers primary packaging (such as blister packs, vials, syringes), secondary packaging (cartons, trays), and tertiary/transport packaging (cases, pallets) that are designed to minimise environmental impact while preserving sterility, safety, and integrity.
Market Size and Forecast:
According to DataM Intelligence, the sustainable healthcare packaging market was valued at about US$ 97.80 billion in 2023, rising to approximately US$ 104.37 billion in 2024, and is forecast to reach US$ 197.65 billion by 2033, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.4% from 2025 to 2033. The growth is driven by rising regulatory pressure around packaging waste, increasing adoption of biodegradable, recyclable, and reusable packaging formats, and the commitment of healthcare supply chains to reduce their environmental impact.
Recent Developments:
In October 2025, DuPont partnered with Olympus to create environmentally responsible packaging for single-use endotherapeutic devices, integrating DuPont’s Tyvek with Renewable Attribution (RA) to reduce carbon footprint in over 100 single-use device categories.
In November 2024, DuPont launched Tyvek with Renewable Attribution, aimed at healthcare packaging applications, enabling reduced carbon-footprint materials that meet sterility and barrier performance standards.
