Battery Packaging MarketBattery packaging is the process of safeguarding batteries such as lithium-ion, lead acid, flow battery, and others for protection purposes. In addition, cell packaging designs and their combinations in modules and battery packs are offered in a vast variety, for primary and secondary batteries. Packaging of batteries reduces any leakage of chemical substances and protects from unexpected wear and tear. Battery packaging has a wide range of applications in automotive, industrial, electronics, battery packaging battery, and others.

Robust demand from automotive industry is expected to drive the battery packaging market

Battery demand is mainly driven by the automotive starter batteries, laptops, portable computers, electric vehicles, and latest rechargeable battery technology. In addition, rise in demand for eco-friendly and cost-effective energy solutions for industrial and commercial energy storage installation is expected to drive the market growth.

Moreover, the installation of solar battery can effectively reduce carbon footprints. Implementation of battery packaging can make a nation energy independent and reduce the dependence on imported fossil energy resources. Furthermore, growing interest of industry players toward renewable energy storage solutions is expected to increase investment opportunities during the forecast timeframe. For instance, countries, such as the UK and Portugal, are encouraging capacity auctions for solar battery storage instead of conventional energy storage systems. Such developments will positively impact the market growth.

However, lithium-ion batteries are sensitive to elevated temperature due to which they have a short life cycle. This is projected to affect the growth of the battery packaging market. In addition, low efficiency and excessive cost of sustainable technologies are expected to hamper market growth.
