Luxury and Premium Packaging

Luxury and premium packaging continue to be a significant trend in the UAE cosmetics packaging market. High-end brands often invest in sophisticated and visually striking packaging designs, incorporating luxurious materials, unique finishes and elaborate embellishments. Luxury packaging conveys a sense of exclusivity and quality to consumers. For the formulas of their various products, especially skincare, premium beauty brands prefer using strong, thick-walled glass jars and bottles as their primary packaging. Metal containers and glass solutions are considered quality options to add a sense of premium to products. Premium materials are going to play an important role in UAE cosmetics packaging market.

Growing Cosmetics Industry

The UAE has witnessed significant growth in the cosmetics industry, driven by factors such as rising disposable incomes, a growing population and increasing beauty consciousness among consumers. This growth in the cosmetics sector directly impacts the UAE cosmetics packaging market, driving the need for innovative and visually appealing packaging solutions. The high level of urbanization in UAE, which stands at 88% as of 2022, is one of the key factors driving both markets simultaneously. Various cosmetics packaging materials like plastics, metals and glass are in high demand to manufacture tubes, containers and bottles for primary packaging and, paper, paperboards and cardboard for secondary and external packaging. The use of high-quality glass for primary packaging to paperboard and cardboard for secondary adds a premium to the product and both are completely sustainable and recyclable.

Expanding Fragrances Packaging

The UAE, particularly Dubai, is renowned as a global hub for luxury and premium perfumes, attracting consumers and brands from around the world. The packaging of perfumes plays a crucial role in enhancing the overall product experience and conveying the brand's image and value. Fragrances packaging plays an important component of UAE cosmetics packaging market.

Luxury and premium perfumes often feature intricate and sophisticated packaging designs, incorporating unique shapes, embossing, labelling and special finishes to create a sense of exclusivity and elegance.

Cartons in Focus, Emphasis on Sustainable Packaging

The UAE has been actively promoting sustainability and environmental responsibility across industries, including cosmetics. One of the key causes boosting the UAE cosmetics packaging market is the rising consumer awareness of environmentally friendly packaging, which could lead to a greater demand for packaging materials that are more readily recyclable and sustainable like paper and board, recycled PET (rPET), glass, metals and bioplastics. There is a growing demand for sustainable packaging solutions that minimize environmental impact and reduce plastic waste. Brands are increasingly adopting eco-friendly materials and incorporating sustainable practices in their packaging, driven by consumer preferences and regulatory initiatives.

Impact of COVID-19

COVID-19 pandemic brought significant challenges to the UAE cosmetics packaging market just like it brought challenges to any other market in UAE. The pandemic and the associated lockdown measures, travel restrictions, and economic uncertainties have brought about changes in consumer behaviour and disrupted supply chains. Due to disruptions in the global supply chain, it became difficult for manufacturers to source raw materials for manufacturing cosmetics packaging. With restricted movement and reduced social interactions, consumers have shown a greater inclination towards essential products and basic personal care items. This has led to a temporary decline in the demand for cosmetic products and consequently, the demand for cosmetics packaging. However, the market rebounded quickly and now the UAE cosmetics packaging market is more inclined towards manufacturing sustainable packaging options which are of high quality as preferred by the expat population of UAE.
