Dublin, Dec. 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Luxury Packaging Market - Forecasts from 2025 to 2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The Luxury Packaging Market is expected to grow from USD 17.062 billion in 2025 to USD 21.349 billion in 2030, at a CAGR of 4.58%.

Characterized by premium materials, innovative designs, and sustainability, luxury packaging enhances brand identity and consumer experience. Asia-Pacific leads, driven by a burgeoning affluent consumer base, followed by North America and Europe. Despite challenges like high costs and regulatory pressures, advancements in eco-friendly materials and smart packaging technologies are fueling robust market growth through 2030.



Luxury packaging leverages materials like paperboard, glass, and biodegradable composites to create visually striking and tactilely engaging designs for cosmetics, perfumes, jewelry, and premium beverages. The market is driven by rising demand for luxury goods, with Asia-Pacific, particularly China, expected to dominate global luxury sales by 2025 (McKinsey & Company, 2025). E-commerce growth has spurred innovative packaging for memorable unboxing experiences, while sustainability trends push brands toward recyclable solutions. In 2025, Hermes transitioned its iconic orange boxes to fully recyclable paperboard, exemplifying this shift (industry report, 2025).
