According to data from iResearch’s “White Paper on the Development of China’s Blister Packaging Industry,” the market size of China’s blister packaging industry reached RMB 187.63 billion in 2025, with a year-on-year growth of 12.7%. It is projected that the full-year market size in 2026 will exceed RMB 210 billion, maintaining a stable compound annual growth rate above 11%.

       The industry exhibits a “large market, small enterprises” pattern, with over 12,000 blister packaging manufacturers nationwide, of which only 8.3% are enterprises above designated size. The Yangtze River Delta and the Pearl River Delta are two core industrial clusters, with Pinghu in Zhejiang Province emerging as a key hub city for blister packaging in the Yangtze River Delta.

       In 2026, the industry is witnessing three major trends:

       Eco-friendly transformation — the application proportion of biodegradable and recyclable bio-based blister materials is expected to reach 37.2%;

       Customization — demand for personalized, small-batch, and high-precision blister products is growing at 23.5%;

       Intelligent manufacturing — the penetration rate of fully automatic blister production lines has increased from 41.6% in 2023 to 68.3% in 2026.
