The global plastic crates market size was valued at USD 4.2 billion in 2023 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 8.3% from 2024 to 2032, driven by the increasing demand for sustainable and reusable packaging solutions across various industries. As businesses and consumers become more environmentally conscious, there is a significant shift away from single-use packaging toward durable alternatives that minimize waste. Additionally, the rise in e-commerce and the need for efficient logistics solutions further propel the demand for plastic crates, which offer better protection and handling for goods during transportation.
The versatility of plastic crates, combined with their cost-effectiveness and ability to enhance supply chain efficiency, positions them as a preferred choice for manufacturers and retailers alike, contributing to the market's expansion. For instance, in November 2023 Fresh Del Monte Produce Inc. partnered with Arena Packaging to introduce reusable plastic crates (RPCs) for bananas, enhancing sustainability by reducing food waste and carbon emissions. These innovative crates improve shelf life and handling, representing a significant shift towards circular economy practices in produce packaging.
