London, 25 March 2015: Technavio, the independent tech-focused global research firm, has published a report on the Global Pharmaceutical Packaging Market 2015-2019, which is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.9 percent during the period 2015-2019.

The Global Pharmaceutical Packaging market is extremely fragmented with the presence of several global vendors. Topmost companies occupy a major portion of the market with the rest being occupied by several international and regional vendors.

“Superior plastics such as high-density polyethylene, polyester, polypropylene, and cyclic olefins are increasingly being used as raw material in the construction of pharmaceutical packaging because of their excellent barrier properties,” says Faisal Ghaus, Vice President of TechNavio.
