The novel coronavirus rapidly spread across various countries and regions, causing an enormous impact on the lives of people and the overall community. It began as a human health condition and later became a significant threat to global trade, economy, and finance. The COVID-19 pandemic halted the business of contract packaging firms due to restrictions on manufacturing activities. The economic slowdown initially resulted in reduced production in various end-user industries of contract packaging firms. However, owing to the introduction of various vaccines, the severity of COVID-19 pandemic has significantly reduced. As of mid-2022, the number of COVID-19 cases have reduced significantly. This has led to reopening of manufacturing and contract packaging companies at their full-scale capacities. Furthermore, it has been more than two years since the outbreak of this pandemic, and many companies have already shown notable signs of recovery.
Furthermore, there have been many advancements in packaging technology such as smart packaging, anti-microbial packaging, water soluble packaging, and corn starch-based packaging.
