Industrial manufacturers use tube filling machines due to their high speed, which helps in the quick dispensing of items such as creams and lotions into tubes. Production efficiency improves when these machines operate at high speeds. Tube filling machines are designed to minimize any variations in the quantities filled, unlike manual filling methods. They offer precise control over the filling process, minimize wastage, lower production costs, and reduce the labor workload. They are simple to use, allowing users to access machines without the need to be trained on any complicated mechanisms. Tube fillers are also used to reduce product wastage as these machines collect the leftover products and re-use them in another tube.
Tube filling machines are capital-intensive equipment that require significant upfront investments. The cost of purchasing, installing, and maintaining these machines can be substantial, especially in small & medium-sized enterprises. The high initial investment acts as barriers for market entry and limits the adoption of tube filling machines, particularly among smaller players.
The global COVID-19 pandemic disrupted supply chains across industries including the tube filling machine market. Manufacturing facilities and distribution networks faced temporary closures and reduced operations, leading to production & delivery delays. This resulted in inventory shortages and increased the lead times for tube filling machines. Adhering to social distancing measures and implementing safety protocols in manufacturing facilities posed challenges for tube filling machine manufacturers. The reduced workforce and changes in production processes impacted productivity and efficiency.
Growth in manufacturing operations, particularly in the chemical, pharmaceutical, and personal & beauty care industries, is propelling the global market share. The vehicle industry expansion resulted in an increased demand for chemicals such as glues, adhesives, and other materials, driving tube filling machine demand. The rising demand for tube packaging in pharmaceutical products, such as ointments and gels, resulted in an increase in tube filling machine sales. Along with the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, the rising consumer demand for personal & beauty care products including tube creams, lotions, and other similar items is also driving the industry expansion.
