Smart Packaging Will Become a US$2.6 Billion Market by 2033
到2033年，智能包裝將成為一個26億美元的市場

The role of packaging has evolved over time, from simply protecting and identifying the product to driving sales via enticing graphics. Smart packaging is the latest iteration, utilizing technology including sensors, indicators and wireless communication to enhance user engagement, product quality and supply chain efficiency. IDTechEx forecast that establishing business models that utilize these technologies to unlock increasing amounts of value for brands and consumers will grow the smart packaging market to US$2.6 billion in 2033. This figure just covers the electronics hardware - the smart packaging market value will be much higher if infrastructure, software and services are included.

包裝的作用隨著時間的推移而演變，從簡單地保護和識別產(chǎn)品到通過引人注目的圖形促進銷售。智能包裝是最新迭代，利用傳感器、指示器和無線通信等技術(shù)來增強用戶參與度、產(chǎn)品質(zhì)量和供應(yīng)鏈效率。IDTechEx預(yù)測，建立利用這些技術(shù)為品牌和消費者解鎖越來越多價值的商業(yè)模式將使智能包裝市場在2033年達到26億美元。這個數(shù)字僅涵蓋了電子硬件——如果考慮基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施、軟件和服務(wù)，則智能包裝市場價值將更高。
 
“Smart Packaging 2023-2033” is a new report from IDTechEx, which provides market research and intelligence on many emerging technologies. The report provides an in-depth technology and market evaluation of this emerging industry, drawing on over 20 interviews with industry players, including fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) players. It discusses in detail the needs of end users, evaluates multiple applications, assesses the underlying technologies such as NFC/RFID and printed/flexible sensors, and presents many case studies of smart packaging deployments.

“智能包裝2023-2033”是一份來自IDTechEx的新報告，這家公司提供許多新興技術(shù)的市場研究和情報。該報告對這個新興行業(yè)進行了深入的技術(shù)和市場評估，對20多位行業(yè)參與者進行了采訪，其中包括快速消費品參與者。它詳細討論了最終用戶的需求，評估了多種應(yīng)用，評估了NFC/RFID和印刷/柔性傳感器等基礎(chǔ)技術(shù)，并展示了許多智能包裝部署的案例研究。

Drivers and applications of smart packaging
智能包裝的驅(qū)動因素及應(yīng)用

The smart packaging market has several prominent drivers. Continuous growth in e-commerce over the last two decades is raising the demand for general packaging and changing the priorities of packaging design. That includes more emphasis on sustainability and delivery optimization and less focus on designs that attract traditional shoppers at retail stores. Stores too are increasingly serving fulfillment center functions, and the need for streamlined inventory management is driving the adoption of item-level smart labeling.

智能包裝市場有幾個顯著的驅(qū)動因素。過去二十年電子商務(wù)的持續(xù)增長提高了對一般包裝的需求，并改變了包裝設(shè)計的優(yōu)先順序。這包括更加注重可持續(xù)性和交付優(yōu)化，而不是專門吸引傳統(tǒng)零售店顧客的設(shè)計。零售店也商店也越來越多地服務(wù)于履行中心的功能，簡化庫存管理的需求正在推動商品級智能標簽的采用。
 
The COVID-19 pandemic has further accelerated the adoption of wireless ID, including the use of QR codes for track and trace schemes and NFC for wireless payment. Consumers' adoption of these technologies has triggered many brand owners to investigate smart packaging use cases. The result has been a significant drive towards the connected experience, with brands interacting with consumers on landing sites accessed by QR codes and NFC.

新冠大流行進一步加速了無線識別的采用，包括使用二維碼進行跟蹤和追蹤計劃，以及使用NFC進行無線支付。消費者對這些技術(shù)的采用引發(fā)了許多品牌所有者調(diào)查智能包裝用例。結(jié)果極大地推動了互聯(lián)體驗，品牌與消費者在通過二維碼和NFC訪問的登陸站點上進行互動。
 
Smart packaging can also assist in facilitating healthcare delivery for an aging population. In case studies discussed in the IDTechEx report, smart packaging can be used to monitor medicine intake compliance in medical trials and, ultimately, by many patients requiring regular medication. This is achieved by using smart blister packaging that can wirelessly communicate a patient’s medicine adherence to the doctor or even provide timely reminders to their smartphone.

智能包裝還可以幫助促進為老齡化人口提供醫(yī)療服務(wù)。在IDTechEx報告討論的案例研究中，智能包裝可用于監(jiān)測醫(yī)學(xué)試驗中的藥物攝入依從性，并最終用于許多需要定期服藥的患者。這是通過使用智能泡罩包裝實現(xiàn)的，該包裝可以將患者的服藥依從性無線傳達給醫(yī)生，甚至可以及時向他們的智能手機提供提醒。
