The global blood glucose test strip packaging market size was valued at USD 2.25 billion in 2023. The industry is expected to expand from USD 2.38 billion in 2024 to USD 3.91 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.41% over the study period.

A diabetes test strip is a small disposable strip made of plastic, layered with a biological enzyme and deployed with a diabetes testing device that reacts with glucose in the blood. Hence, its packaging is essential to get accurate outcomes of blood glucose levels. The deployment of desiccant into packaging is impelling the market growth. The best moisture protection is offered by desiccant packaging to test strips owing to its ability to retain dryness.
