Consumer purchasing habits saw a drastic shift as neighbourhood stores and supermarkets were shut down during 2020 due to COVID-19 restrictions. Such closures and heightened precautions to avoid contact pushed consumers towards shopping online for groceries and essential items.
As the situation has stabilised, the Australian Beverages Council has been focusing on the non-alcoholic drinks industry's post-COVID-19 recovery, which includes enforcing container deposit schemes across the country, incentivising key groups to meet sustainability goals, expanding recycling infrastructure, reforming the tax system, simplifying the industrial relations system and improving energy policy. As a result of the tremendous shift in consumer opinion toward sustainability, corporations are investing in recycling facilities and developing novel ways to package beverages.
Beverage manufacturer Frucor Suntory has switched from shrinkwrap to cardboard on its multipacks of Pepsi, Pepsi Max, Mountain Dew and 7-Up in 2021. This is part of the company’s sustainability goal of sending zero waste to landfill by 2030.
PET bottles lost its position as the main pack type in soft drinks packaging in 2020, when its sales declined and metal beverage can usage increased. PET bottles are also expected to record a slower CAGR over the forecast period than metal beverage cans.
The Australian Packaging Covenant's 2025 National Packaging Targets call for all Australian packaging to be recyclable, biodegradable or reused by 2025. Australia already has a robust container deposit mechanism in place in most states or territories, which allows residents to return beverage containers in exchange for points and reimbursement.
