This expansion underscores the recognized effectiveness of product in mitigating consumption and advancing public health agendas, thereby fostering heightened demand for these solutions on a global scale.

The global supply chain disruptions from the COVID-19 pandemic affected the market, leading to production and distribution challenges. Manufacturing plant closures and reduced capacities constrained the availability of plain packaging materials, impacting industry operations.
