Agriculture Chemical Packaging Market Size, Share, Opportunities, And Trends By Product Type (Bags and Pouches, Bottles and Containers, Drums and Intermediate Bulk (IBC’s), Others), By Material Type (Plastic, Metal, Others), By Chemical (Fertilizer, Pesticide, Others), And By Geography - Forecasts From 2025 To 2030

Agriculture Chemical Packaging Market Size:

Agriculture Chemical Packaging Market, growing at a 4.79% CAGR, is projected to achieve USD 6.555 billion by 2030 from USD 5.188 billion in 2025.

Agriculture Chemical Packaging Market Key Highlights:

• Witnessing rapid growth due to expanding global agrochemical trade and export activities.
• Shifting towards sustainable packaging with increased use of recyclable bags and pouches.
• Increasing demand for bioplastics and flexible packaging to reduce environmental impact.
• Experiencing steady expansion in India driven by rising fertilizer use and food demand.

Agriculture Chemical Packaging Market Trends:

One major factor propelling the agriculture chemical packaging market is the growth in agrochemical trade. Further, the extension of the shelf life of agrochemicals and biologicals, an increase in research and development activities within the industry, and a rise in demand from emerging economies are expected to provide further impetus to its growth. Additionally, as technology advances and machinery modernize, new opportunities will arise for the agriculture chemical packaging market during the forecast period.

Moreover, plastics are the most common packaging material for agricultural chemicals. However, because bags, pouches, bottles, and containers are environmentally sustainable, their use is growing quickly. For instance, Scholle IPN provides pouch and bag-in-box packaging options to safeguard agrochemical products.

Additionally, StePac and BASF joined forces in December 2022 to develop fresh produce packaging that is sustainable. With the help of BASF's chemically recycled polyamide 6, Ultramid Ccycled, StePac will be able to develop contact-sensitive packaging formats that are compatible with the circular economy. The goal of this collaboration is to increase produce shelf life and decrease plastic waste.

Agriculture Chemical Packaging Market Growth Drivers:

• Increasing demand for packaging solutions

Plastic bags and pouches are commonly used to package various agrochemical products like fertilizer and pesticides. HDPE and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) are the materials of choice when making plastic jars and bottles. These medium barrier solutions are appropriate for use in the agrochemical industries because they provide moderate levels of gas permeability, heat resistance, moisture barrier, and oxygen barrier.

Moreover, Plastic Ocean International estimates that almost 500 billion plastic bags are used globally each year. The lightweight, dependable, and cost-effective qualities of plastics are factors driving their adoption in this market.  The need for packaging solutions that safely store and dispense pesticides and herbicides—chemicals that shield crops from diseases, weeds, and pests—is fueled by the growing demand for crop protection products on a global scale. Additionally, the rising trends in food production and chemical fertilizer consumption and increased demand for bioplastics are creating significant market opportunities. For instance, as per the European Bioplastics Organization, the global bioplastic production capacity is expected to rise dramatically, from 2.23 million tonnes in 2022 to roughly 6.3 million tonnes in 2027. Further, flexible packaging solutions, which can also lessen an organization's carbon footprint, are made of flexible plastics. As they offer superior protection against transportation losses in an environmentally friendly way, pouches and bags are being used more often in agrochemical packaging. For instance, Scholle IPN provides fertilizer solutions in pouch packaging, which offers a better product-to-package ratio than rigid formats like bottles and jars.

Agriculture Chemical Packaging Market Geographical Outlook:

• India's agriculture chemical packaging market is predicted to expand steadily. 

Agricultural chemical packaging involves the usage of packaging solutions such as bags, bottles, and containers made of metals or plastics for safe storage and transportation of fertilizers, pesticides, and other agrochemicals. India is among the leading nations with high agricultural production and the country is witnessing a positive growth in agrochemicals production fueled by the growing agricultural activities. For instance, according to the Department of fertilizers, in September 2023, fertilizer sales in India stood at 53.95 metric tons which signified a 6.8% increase over 2022’s sales volume of 50.49 metric tons. Additionally, the booming population and increase in consumption scale have further stimulated the food demand in India which will increase agricultural operations in the country, thereby simultaneously increasing the demand for agrochemical packaging solutions for safe transportation of pesticides and fertilizers.

Moreover, the well-established presence of local market players such as Hitech Corporation Ltd . provides various packaging solutions for agrochemicals inclusive of monolayer and barrier container options in LDPE, PP, PE, and HDPE plastic containers, bottles buckets, and jerrycans is also expected to drive the market growth at country level. Furthermore, various guidelines and regulatory standards laid by the Indian government about the packaging and labeling of agrochemical materials are also acting as an additional driving factor.
