According to the “Overview of 2022 Japanese Compiled by editorial staff from JPI dataPackaging-related machinery production value 498.7B yen, 8%Packaging and container shipment value 6078.8B yen, 92%Packaging and containershipment value (billion yen)Packaging-related machineryproduction value (billion yen)packaging-related machinery production was 498.7 billion yen (102.7% y/y). Both of these grew quite substantially from the previous year to approximately 390 billion yen, and the overall market grew 106.6% y/y. For the first time in 14 years, the market exceeded 6.5 trillion yen.On the other hand, the increase in shipment value can also be attributed to soaring raw material prices: in 2022, the prices of raw materials such as crude oil and steel sky-rocketed. As these raw materials are used in large quantities in the manufacture of packaging containers, the sharp rise in raw material prices pushed up the cost of manufacturing packaging containers, leading to an increase in the value of shipments. The composition of raw materials was largely the same as before. However, plastic products, which are more expensive, increased by about 1%.However, the number of shipments fell below the previ-ous year’s level, which had remained almost flat since recov-ering from the effects of the Great East Japan Earthquake in 2011, but the supply-demand balance collapsed due to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, unusual weather and disasters around the world, in addition to the effects of the new coro-na, the sharp rise in raw material and energy prices, and the rapid depreciation of the yen. In addition, in 2022, the government stepped up efforts to reduce plastic waste. As a result, packaging containers have be-come smaller in size and shape, and materials have changed as packaging containers have become more resource efficient.The combination of these factors was influenced to lead to an increase in the value of shipments, but a decrease in the number of shipments in the pack-aging industry in 2022.By composition, paper and paperboard products and glass products increased approximately 0.6% and 4.6%, respectively. Whether this trend is tem-59Packaging Industry Shipment Statistics” re-leased by the Japan Packaging Institute, the pack-aging industry market in 2022 was 6577.5 billion yen, with the shipment value increasing by 6.6% year on year, while the number of shipments fell short of the previous year. The increase in shipment value was due to the rising prices of raw materials, and the proportion of plastic products also increased. The reasons for the decrease in shipments include the rationalization of packaging containers and gov-ernment initiatives to reduce plastic waste. This data is expected to provide important insights for stake-holders in Japan and those doing business in Japan to understand future trends.The graph shows the total value and volume of ship-ments, indicating the size of the packaging industry in 2022.The market for the packaging industry in 2022 was 6577.5 billion yen, of which the value of packaging and container shipments was 6788 billion yen (106.9% y/y) and the value of Value of 2022 Packaging Industry Shipments “Overview of 2022 Japanese Packaging Industry Shipment Statistics”Japan's packaging industry market in 2022 reached 6577.5 billion yen, up 6.6% from the previous year
