Crepe Paper Market: Overview

The crepe paper industry is a segment of the larger paper and pulp industry and is driven by the growing sales of crepe paper which has a wrinkled and crinkled texture. Crepe paper is manufactured by a process called creping which involves stretching and compressing the paper fibers. This procedure causes the paper to contract leading to the creation of a crinkled texture. Crepe paper can be produced using a range of materials such as pulp, cotton, and synthetic fibers. It is available in multiple options in terms of thickness and color and has a variety of applications. For instance, decorative crepe paper is used in gift wrapping, crafting, and party decorations. The crepe paper industry is currently segmented based on type, application, and region with every segment being dominated by one specific sub-segment. During the forecast period, the industry is expected to encounter growth opportunities while having to deal with growth challenges.

Crepe Paper Market: Growth Drivers

Increasing demand for sustainable packaging solutions to propel market growth

The global crepe paper market is projected to grow owing to the increasing demand for sustainable packaging solutions. Crepe paper is an excellent alternative to traditional and more widely used packaging materials. They are biodegradable and recyclable which translates to higher sustainability in the long run. Traditional packaging solutions include cardboard and plastics. These components are not environment-friendly. Plastic is considered the worst pollutant in the packaging sector. As public awareness around irresponsible consumption habits is growing due to several factors, such as increased awareness-related initiatives by the government and other environmental agencies, the demand for crepe paper is likely to grow at a steady rate. Furthermore, the growing importance of attributes required for brand differentiation could lead to higher use of crepe paper that is available in several colors, shapes, and sizes.

Crepe Paper Market: Restraints

Increasing competition from alternatives to restrict market expansion

The global crepe paper industry is registering high competition from alternative packaging solutions. Although the end-users are showing more inclination toward sustainable packaging material, there is wide-scale availability of other environment-friendly materials, such as recycled paper and biodegradable plastics. They are the most cost-effective and readily available as compared to crepe paper. This could act as a significant barrier against growth during the forecast period.

Crepe Paper Market: Opportunities

Growing expansion in emerging economies to provide excellent growth opportunities

The global crepe paper industry players can expect higher growth opportunities from emerging markets or segments that remain unexplored. Countries like Africa and Asia have tremendous growth potential due to the increasing rate of disposable income and product awareness rate. In addition to this, the growing population of Asia marks a larger pool of consumers that can deliver more revenue. Furthermore, the growing emphasis by the government on sustainability could lead to higher importance and use of crepe paper as opposed to a traditional packaging in these countries.

Crepe Paper Market: Challenges

Raw material price volatility to challenge market growth

Raw materials used in the production of crepe paper include wood pulp or synthetic fibers. The cost associated with these materials is subject to a high volatility rate and any slight change in global supply chain dynamics can gravely impact the final product cost. The price is also susceptible to changes in other factors, such as weather patterns, and natural disasters. The profitability of crepe manufacturers remains under tremendous pressure in such situations making it difficult to forecast future trends.

Crepe Paper Market: Segmentation

The global crepe paper market is segmented based on type, application, and region.

Based on type, the global market segments are decorative and masking. In 2022, the highest growth was observed in the decorative segment since it is one of the largest types of application of crepe paper. They are used extensively for party decorations, gift wrapping, and crafting. Alternatively, masking paper has more applications in the painting and automotive industries where the paper is used as protecting surfaces during painting or other such applications. Moreover, decorative crepe paper is available in a wide variety of colors and patterns and hence appeals to a broader segment of consumers. According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), in 2020, the United States alone produced close to 90.3 million metric tons of wood and paper products.

Based on application, the global crepe paper market segments are crafting & decoration, medical, masking, packaging, cleaning, medical, and costumes & theater. In 2022, the largest application of crepe paper was observed in the packaging segment since it is used to package a variety of products including electronics, food, and industrial goods. Crepe paper is further valued for its added advantages such as providing cushioning, protection, and support to fragile or delicate items during storage and transportation. As per rough calculations, producing 100 sheets of crepe paper with 20*26 inches dimension and weighing 17 grams per paper may require 1 kilogram of wood pulp.

Recent Developments:

  • In July 2021, The Paper & Petal Studio announced the launch of a new range of colors for crepe paper.
