• Adoption of plastic tube filling in cosmetic and personal care is driving the market for the automatic filling machine. According to Schwartz, 548 million units of shampoo were sold in the USA, generating revenue in the amount of USD 24 billion. This category is expected to increase to USD 30 billion by 2023. This inhibits the usage of automatic pasty filling equipment for the cosmetic segment as it requires short changeover times due to quick-acting couplings which automatic machine can provide. With this, the demand for HDPE tube packaging increases as they provide chemical resistant properties and are commonly recycled.
• However, the filling of highly viscous products into capsules challenges the market. As such, products during filling tend to produce threads and therefore do not allow to be filled into capsules. Furthermore, the production of soft gelatine capsules is technically very complicated, which requires high investment.
• Further, the COVID-19 pandemic has put the world on a standstill, affecting major operations, leading to an industrial catastrophe. The market growth of pasty products filling machine, especially for household and cosmetics, is restrained as in many countries, the machine installations through the engineers are unfortunately postponed currently. For pharmaceuticals, the demand for filling machines is not slow due to the requirement of medicine for various illnesses. A player such as Waldner Dosomat, Shanghai CrossQ Automation Equipment Co., Ltd is supplying their equipment machine to the pharma sector based on the demand.
