Flexible packaging is expected to witness the largest growth among the different types of packaging materials used in frozen seafood packaging. Easy-to-cook flexible packaging options are already present in the market. For instance, Mondi Group, a prominent packaging vendor, has a product called steampack in its portfolio.

With the rising demand for flexible packaging for frozen seafood, there will be an increased demand for these materials.

One trend in the market is antimicrobial packaging for seafood. If subject to inadequate storage and handling, seafood can undergo rapid microbial growth and contamination.

Antimicrobial packaging is a new form of active packaging for fish.

According to the report, one driver in the market is rising popularity of ease-of-use packaging. Busy lifestyles and smaller households are increasing the demand for easy-to-use packaging options for food packaging. In the case of seafood packaging, flexible packaging options with zippers for opening and reclosing and microwavable pouch packaging are becoming prevalent in households. Packaging products are focused on providing the customer with convenience and an extended shelf life of the packaged products.
