Sustainability Concerns to Drive the Demand for Recycled Wrapping Paper
The rising demand for sustainable and environmentally-friendly wrapping paper made from recycled materials is expected to drive significant market growth during the forecast years. Consumers' growing awareness of environmental issues has led to an increased demand for eco-friendly options that reduce the need for virgin pulp, a primary cause of deforestation, and minimize waste in landfills.
Furthermore, consumers are increasingly concerned about the harmful effects of traditional materials, such as plastics, on both the environment and human health. Therefore, the use of recycled paper and biodegradable materials is expected to become more widespread, promoting sustainability in the packaging industry.
