Engine oil is expected to remain the most lucrative lubricant in the market, expanding at 4.8% CAGR through 2025. Engine oil accounted for 3,847 Mn units of lubricant packaging by 2017. In addition, sales of lubricant packaging of industrial oil is expected to exhibit second-highest CAGR through 2025. On the contrary, adoption of lubricant packaging for Greases will remain sluggish during the forecast period.

Plastic will remain preferred material for lubricant packaging globally. Sales of plastic for lubricant packaging is expected to exhibit 4.4% CAGR, to surpass 10,000 Mn units by 2025-end. Polyethylene sub-segment of plastic material will account for sales of 2,747 Mn units, expanding at similar CAGR as that of its parent segment through 2025. In addition, demand for metal in the global lubricant packaging market will remain relatively lower than plastic.

Automotive Sector to Remain Largest End-User of Lubricant Packaging

Automotive sector will remain the largest end-user of lubricant packaging across the globe. Demand for lubricant packaging in this sector is expected to reach nearly 6,000 Mn units, registering highest CAGR in the market through 2025. In contrast, FMI’s report projects sluggish expansion in demand for lubricant packaging in chemicals sector.

Asia Pacific (APAC) is estimated to remain the largest market for lubricant packaging, followed by North America. In addition, APAC will exhibit highest CAGR in the market, followed by Middle East & Africa (MEA). MEA is projected to register 4.1% CAGR in the global lubricant packaging market through 2025. Sales of lubricant packaging in APAC is anticipated to surpass 6,000 Mn Units by 2025-end. Although North America will remain a lucrative region in the market, sales of lubricant packaging in this region will register a comparatively low CAGR through 2025.

Increasing Demand for Luxury Cars in Developing Economies to Sustain Market Growth

Demand for luxury cars in developing economies has been witnessing a surge on the back of rising per capita income, leading toward increased sales of passenger vehicles- particularly SUV cars. This will result in robust production of automobiles, which in turn will sustain demand for lubricant packaging products including intermediate bulk containers and pails. In addition, robust adoption of automotive vehicles in emerging economies of BRICS region will further maintain growth of the global lubricant packaging market.

However, increasing competitiveness in the market owing to rise in raw material prices, and marketing expenditures is resulting into declining margins of manufacturers, which in turn is impacting sales of lubricant packaging. In addition, factors such as improved engine technology, better oil quality, and saturation in vehicle population in developed economies has led to slower adoption rate of lubricants, and thereby their packaging. This has resulted into drop in aftersales services of vehicles, which in turn is expected to impede market growth in these regions.
