Capping Machine Market: Introduction
- A capping machine is used for bottle capping and container capping. In the bottling process, a bottle capping machine is designed to seal bottle caps. In the capping machine, the capper clamps the bottle’s top, and the metal head of the machine is pressed down over the bottle cap, sealing the bottle cap. Capping machines are available as automatic machines and semi-automatic machines. The machine is also available in various cap types such as screw caps, ROPP caps, and snap on caps. Capping machines are used for packaging of different types of bottles such as plastic and glass bottles, and containers such as metal and plastic containers. The market is likely to see a significant increase in demand for capping machines during the forecast period.
Key Drivers and Opportunities of the Global Capping Machine Market
- Increase in disposable income and rise in standard of living of consumers who are more aware about their health, and the ongoing threat of Covid-19, has raised the demand for packaged food over the last few years. This has resulted in developments in the food & beverage industry. The rise in demand for packaged foods and beverages is likely to lead to growth in the global capping machine market.
- In pharmaceutical and chemical industries, capping machines are widely used to attach lids or caps to containers or bottles securely throughout the packaging process. Capping machines enhance the manufacturing process with quality and sanitization. This factor is expected to drive the demand for capping machines in pharmaceutical and chemical industries.
- Key manufacturers investing in R&D projects are coming up with innovative products. Manufacturers are investing in automated capping machines to increase productivity, functionality, and safety. Automation also helps to track down the ongoing operations and defects of the machines. Robotics is rapidly becoming the most popular automated variant for packaging industries. Adoption of robotics reduces scrap and waste material by providing higher accuracy, consistency, and throughput rate. This factor is expected to increase the demand for capping machines during the forecast period.
Restraints of the Global Capping Machine Market
- Rise in demand for flexible package types such as bags and pouches is due to their low weight and ecofriendly property compared to metal or plastic containers and bottles. Flexible packaging is projected to be a factor affecting the growth of the capping machine market during the forecast period.
- Capping machines are mostly used in packaging industries. Setting up a packaging industry requires large capital investment due to high cost of machinery. Most of the package companies are adopting capping machines that offer filling, capping, and labeling at the same time. Overall maintenances cost is thus high. This will restrain the growth of the global capping machine market.
Asia Pacific to hold Major Share in the Global Capping Machine Market
- In terms of region, the global capping machine market can be divided into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle & East Africa, and South America.
- The Asia Pacific region is expected to dominate the global capping machine market during the forecast period. Asia Pacific has a number of developing countries such as China and India. These countries have highest ratio of population growth with an increasing working population, resulting in high consumption of packaged food and other personal care goods.
