The Global Infant Bottles Market size was USD 2.8 Billion in 2021 and is projected to reach USD 4.2 Billion by 2030, exhibiting a CAGR of 5.1% during the forecast period. The infant bottles industry has undergone constant innovation in terms of product offers throughout the years. Manufacturers of infant bottles have been brainstorming on new products that particularly address client needs. For example, Olababy Inc., one of the leading brands in the global market, has introduced the Olababy GentleBottle, a new range of baby bottles with an off-set nipple that promotes latching and discourages bottle rejection. This soft, medical-grade silicone bottle has an easy-to-hold feel and a dual venting mechanism to help with air flow and minimise colic. As a result, during the market prediction for infant bottles, innovation emerges as a key aspect. Rising disposable income, along with increased urbanization, have been two main factors driving the market in terms of value sales. Baby feeding bottles are plastic bottles with a teat or nipples that allow newborn newborns to easily swallow milk or water.
 

Companies employ comprehensive distribution tactics to push baby care products in large quantities to a variety of distribution channels, including retail stores, supermarkets, shopping malls, and the internet. To accommodate the growing demand for baby bottles, manufacturers in the baby bottle segment create unique bottle forms and sizes. Merger and acquisition techniques are widely used by companies in the baby bottled category to increase their company portfolio of baby care products, which eventually drives the baby bottled market. For example, in February 2020, Ljubljana, Slovenia's largest private equity firm, began merging and acquiring top baby and child care stores in order to establish a strong position in the baby and child care market in Slovenia.
 

Material Type Outlook

The plastic segment is expected to dominate the market share in 2020 of global infant bottles market owing to the widespread availability of plastic infant bottles at reasonable prices. However, due to some adverse effects connected with plastic bottles, the company's product offers have been revised. Baby bottle makers in the United States have discontinued producing bottles that contain BPA (Bisphenol A), a chemical that has been shown to be harmful to children's health. As a result, the vast majority of plastic infant bottles are BPA-free. Some of the leading brands in this area include Avent, Medela, Pigeon, and Tommee Tippee.
