The global jute bags market size is predicted to value at USD 2,027 million in 2019 and market is expected to touch USD 4,019 million in 2025, exhibiting with a growing compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.08% during the forecast period.

Jute is a long, silky fiber derived from the bark of two types of plants: white and Tossa jute. Jute is the second-most important vegetable fiber after cotton. It is also known as the golden fiber because of its golden and silky appearance. It is woven into coarse, strong threads and used to make ropes, bags, textiles, and rugs. Jute is non-toxic, cost-effective, reusable, recyclable, and biodegradable, leaving no trace after decomposition. Therefore, it is widely employed in packaging and fabric production globally. These factors are likely to bolster market growth. 

Jute can be produced in big quantities without pesticides and does not require much land for cultivation. It allows manufacturers to obtain raw material quickly and at a reasonable cost. Jute bags are long-lasting and can be reused for storage and carrying items after they have been used. They offer excellent moisture and fire resistance, making them stronger and longer-lasting. Plastic bags are not used in major retail stores, which creates a market potential for jute bags. In addition, they are lightweight and cost-effective, which is expected to boost product demand. These factors are responsible for the progress of the jute bags market.

COVID-19 Impact: Halt on Import and Export to Hinder Industry Growth

The sudden breakout of the COVID-19 pandemic prompted the introduction of strict lockdown measures in some countries, causing jute bag import and export to be disrupted. India is the world's largest jute producer, with over 1 million metric tons of jute products produced every year. During the projected period, the Indian jute bag market is expected to rise at a rapid pace. The Indian government’s supportive policies and programs for jute product promotions drive the demand for jute bags. The impact of COVID-19 on raw jute prices in the markets was not explored because most of the complaints were addressed towards the jute sector and workers. There was a strong correlation between market pricing and market arrival during the pandemic.

LATEST TRENDS

"Increasing Adoption in Consumer Goods to Propel Market Development"

Jute has high heat conductivity and insulating qualities, making it an excellent packaging material. These bags are frequently used to transport bulk commodities from one location to another. Growing public awareness of environmental issues has resulted in a preference for natural and biodegradable alternatives. The jute sector is benefiting from this and several government programs. For example, the Indian government has mandated that food grains and sugar be packaged in jute bags.

Jute-based products such as handbags, tablemats, room dividers, folders, jewelry, and sandals are also being introduced by market players. They are also developing new and personalized bag alternatives in various patterns, shapes, sizes, and styles to meet clients' tastes. These factors are likely to fuel the progress of the jute bags market.

• By Type Analysis

By type, the market is segmented into jute sack bags and jute shopping bags.

Jute sack bags are expected to be the leading segment because of the vast bulk of sales. With the wide availability, ease of use, convenience, and cost-effectiveness, jute sack bags will likely dominate the market. These factors may propel industry growth. 

• By Application Analysis

Based on application, it is categorized into household and commercial. 

The commercial segment may lead the market growth because of the rising demand from the food industry. The jute bags' strength allows them to carry more weight. Therefore, jute bags are widely used in the food business to store and transport food grains. These factors may fuel jute bags market development. 

DRIVING FACTORS

"Increasing Demand from Food Industry to Bolster Market Progress"

The ban on plastic bags in several countries is a major element driving the growth of the jute bag industry. The strength of these bags allows them to bear more weight. Therefore, they are becoming more popular in the food industry for storing and transporting food grains. They are durable and do not rip as easily as plastic or paper bags, making them popular among end consumers.

Jute, as a material, also has good antistatic and insulating characteristics, making the bags durable. When it comes to sustainability, these bags are the greatest option because they are both eco-friendly and cost-effective. They can survive long exposure to weather and water, making them more useful in various sectors. They are utilized in both industrial and domestic applications. These factors are likely to drive the progress of the market. 

"Government Backing for E-Marketplace Openings to Promote Exports"

In India, single-use plastic has already been banned, opening new opportunities for jute packaging, while paper packaging is set to give it serious competition. The proprietors of jute mills have already urged the government to make jute bags mandatory in all malls and department stores. Although this is more expensive than plastic or paper packaging, it will pay off in the long run.

According to an IJMA official, the textile ministry is keenly interested in creating the e-marketplace and has shown willingness to provide financial support to the idea if it takes shape. Jutekart, fibreofindia, juteflash, and juteindex are the four portals that make up the e-commerce platform. From purchasing raw jute for mills to fabric for jute product manufacturers to presenting jute products in domestic and international markets, they will help streamline the supply chain. These factors are likely to drive the jute bags market growth. 

RESTRAINING FACTORS

"Cost of Production to Impede Market Progress"

When it comes to the disadvantages of jute, jute bags do not have a crease-resistance property and gradually lose strength when damp. Furthermore, there have been increasing challenges in raw jute production, as many farmers are switching from jute cultivation to other crops because the cost of producing raw jute has more than doubled, and farmers are not getting the desired price. The grade of raw jute produced in India, primarily in West Bengal, is only suitable for sack production, and it isn't easy to generate high-quality jute fabric for other uses. These factors are likely to impede market progress.

Asia-Pacific is expected to dominate the jute bags market share owing to favorable weather conditions and soil fertility. India, China, and Bangladesh produce the most jute in the region, attracting manufacturers to expand their production facilities because of low production costs.

The adoption of the Jute Packaging Materials Act, which mandated these bags for all food grain packaging, is further boosting the market. For instance, the Prime Minister of India recently spoke at the 95th annual general meeting of the Indian Chamber of Commerce, emphasizing his goal of a self-sufficient India and substituting single-use plastic bags with jute bags. The importance of growing jute output was discussed in the market, particularly in West Bengal.

Europe is the second-largest shareholder because of the growing environmental consciousness in the region. The product has seen a surge in demand, notably in the European Union. The growing adoption of these bags over plastic bags and increased imports from non-producing countries drive the industry forward.

North America, particularly the U.S., will continue to play a critical role that cannot be overlooked. Any changes in the U.S. could have an impact on the development of the product. The increasing adoption of advanced technologies in this region, and the presence of significant players, are expected to provide ample potential possibilities for the market.
