According to the UN Environment report, 1 million plastic drinking bottles are purchased every minute, most of which end up in landfills and oceans. Only 9% of all plastic waste gets recycled, while over 79% gets dumped in water bodies or open garbage dumps. Paper bottles offer a green alternative to plastic bottles, as they are biodegradable, and do not harm the environment. This is estimated to act as a major growth driver for the paper bottles market. Further, government initiatives to limit use of single-use plastics, such as setting up plastic waste management system, is expected to promote the use of plastic bottles on a mass scale. The use of paper cups, straws and bags has gained significant acceptance in the recent years, and paper bottles are expected to follow the same trend.
