의약품 블리스터 포장 시장 : 기회, 성장 촉진요인, 산업 동향 분석(2025-2034년)

The Global Pharmaceutical Blister Packaging Market was valued at USD 21.7 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow at an impressive CAGR of 7.6% between 2025 and 2034. This growth reflects a surging demand for secure, efficient, and protective packaging solutions for pharmaceutical products worldwide. Pharmaceutical blister packaging has emerged as a preferred choice among manufacturers and healthcare providers due to its ability to offer enhanced product protection, extended shelf life, and improved medication adherence.

Rising advancements in packaging materials and technologies, coupled with an increasing emphasis on sustainable solutions, are further fueling market growth. The demand is also driven by the growing pharmaceutical industry, rising prevalence of chronic diseases, and a need for packaging solutions that comply with stringent regulatory standards. Moreover, the convenience and ease of use offered by blister packaging, such as clear visibility of contents and tamper-evident features, continue to solidify its position as an essential solution for modern pharmaceutical packaging.

In terms of material, the market is categorized into plastic, aluminum foil, and paper, with the plastic segment leading, holding 53.3% of the market share in 2024. Plastics such as PVC, PET, and polycarbonate are widely used due to their versatile and cost-effective nature, making them an ideal choice for protecting sensitive pharmaceutical products from moisture, light, and contamination. These materials also offer excellent barrier properties and enable manufacturers to design blister packs in a wide array of shapes and sizes, meeting the diverse needs of pharmaceutical companies. The flexibility and durability of plastics allow manufacturers to innovate in design while ensuring adherence to safety and quality standards.

The market is also segmented by technology, including cold forming, thermoforming, and heat sealing. Thermoforming, in particular, is gaining significant traction and is projected to grow at a robust CAGR of 8.4%, reaching USD 24.5 billion by 2034. This technology stands out for its ability to produce high-quality and cost-efficient blister packs on a large scale. By heating plastic sheets into a pliable state and molding them into precise cavity dimensions, thermoforming ensures that tablets, capsules, and other pharmaceutical products are securely housed, minimizing the risk of damage or contamination during storage and transport.

In 2024, North America accounted for 34.6% of the pharmaceutical blister packaging market, with the United States experiencing remarkable growth. The increasing demand for patient-centric healthcare packaging and the rising focus on sustainable solutions have spurred innovation in the region. Manufacturers are introducing recyclable materials like biodegradable plastics and paper-based alternatives to address environmental concerns. Additionally, packaging designs are being enhanced with tamper-evident features and improved usability, supporting better medication adherence and ensuring patient safety, further solidifying the region's dominance in the market.
