By Molded Type, Thermoformed Fiber accounted for the second largest share in 2021
Thermoformed is also known as thin-wall molded fiber packaging which is manufactured using multiple heated molds with product thickness ranging from 3/32 to 5/32 inches, which is 2mm to 4mm. The surfaces of the thermoformed type of pulp packaging are smooth, and forms are well detailed with minimal draft angles. Due to the multiple heated mold process, the walls are comparatively denser. Thermoformed fiber products closely resemble thermoformed plastic materials. This technique is most widely used to make clamshells and food service disposables such as cups, plates, bowls, and cutlery. This type of molded pulp packaging is also used for high-definition applications where appearance is of prime importance.
By Product Type, cups accounted for the third largest share in 2021.
Molded fiber cups are another form of wide-mouth disposable packaging that is produced using non-wood pulp such as sugarcane bagasse & rice straw pulp, and soft & hardwood pulp such as newsprint paper slurry and wood pulp. These cups are widely used in food service packaging and for products such as butter, chocolates, tomato sauce, preserves, dairy products (cheese, milk cream, and yogurt with and without fruit pieces), mayonnaise, jam, honey, and edible oil.

By Source, Non-Wood Pulp accounted for second the largest share in 2021.
The use of trees for paper production has contributed to the problem of deforestation with a huge negative impact on the environment, thereby causing an imbalance in the ecosystem. An increase in the demand and consumption of paper has also induced the depletion of wood resources for paper production, thus resulting in the limited availability of raw materials. Hence, non-wood pulp is used as an alternative raw material which is accessible and convertible into pulp and paper of the same quality as that obtained from wood.
This pulp is generally in the form of agricultural food crop residues, grasses, and tree leaves that do not have immediate applications. It is processed and used as an excellent alternative for wood pulp, offering the same properties and benefits.
