Polyethylene (PE) dominates the material segment with a 49.6% market share in 2025. This preference is driven by polyethylene’s excellent chemical resistance, durability, and cost-effectiveness. It offers reliable protection against corrosion and leakage, which is essential for storing aggressive chemicals and fertilizers.
The versatility of polyethylene in molding complex shapes also enables ergonomic jug designs suitable for industrial handling. Its lightweight nature reduces transportation costs and improves ease of use.
Additionally, polyethylene is recyclable, which aligns with increasing environmental regulations and corporate sustainability goals. These factors collectively ensure the continued preference for polyethylene in the F-style jugs market.
The capacity segment featuring containers above 500 ml is expected to capture 46.3% of the market revenue in 2025. This segment benefits from the operational advantages of larger containers in industrial and agricultural applications. Bulk storage reduces the frequency of refills, streamlines logistics, and improves handling efficiency.
Many chemical and fertilizer products require storage in volumes exceeding 500 ml to meet application demands, making this segment highly relevant. Additionally, larger containers often include features for safe pouring and handling, which enhance user convenience.
The growing scale of agricultural and industrial operations further supports demand in this capacity range.
The Chemical & Fertilizers sector holds 38.2% of the F-style jugs market revenue in 2025, establishing it as the leading end-use segment. This growth has been driven by the need for specialized containers that safely store and transport a variety of chemicals, including pesticides, herbicides, and liquid fertilizers.
Safety regulations require containers that can resist chemical degradation and prevent leaks, which has increased reliance on high-performance jugs. The expanding agricultural sector and increasing use of chemical fertilizers to enhance crop yields have also contributed to market growth.
The segment benefits from ongoing investments in industrial packaging technology and heightened awareness around safe chemical handling. Demand for reliable, compliant containers is expected to continue driving this segment’s growth.
Demand for F-style jugs is surging at a rapid pace across the chemical industry. The rapid adoption of these containers for packaging and storing processes foods and liquid products such as edible oil, sauces, jam, purees, juices, and others is accelerating sales across the food & beverage industry. Increasing customer demand for easy-to-use, stack, and store packaging products is catapulting the sales of F-style jugs across diverse industries.
Industry players are increasingly focusing on adopting robust packaging solutions to extend the shelf life and minimize product wastage while pouring activities. As F-style jugs fulfill these requirements along with providing additional benefits such as chemical resistance and low risk of leakage, demand for these containers is propelling in the market.
Over the past couple of years, a swift rise in the adoption of sustainable and recyclable packaging solutions is being witnessed across diverse industries, owing to rising environmental concerns and the implementation of stringent regulations in countries such as the USA, China, India, the United Kingdom, and others.
As F-style jugs are reusable and are made of environment-friendly & recyclable material such as HDPE plastic, they are gaining huge popularity across the food & beverage and chemical industries. This is anticipated to elevate the demand for F-style jugs in the global market.
Plastics such as high-density polyethylene, polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, and others take hundreds of years to decompose. Thus, governments in several countries are implementing several guidelines and regulations for declining the use of plastics for packaging. This is restraining the demand for F-style jugs in the global market.
In addition to this, the high cost of these containers and the increasing use of metal cans for lubrication and petroleum products is expected to hinder the sales of F-style jugs.
FMI states that Asia Pacific excluding Japan is estimated to account for the maximum revenue share in the global F-style jugs market from 2025 to 2035.
Rising customer inclination towards deep-fried food products such as potato chips, fries, snacks, patties, and others has resulted in augmenting the demand for edible oils such as sunflower oil, soybean oil, and groundnut oil among others.
Thus, key industry players are increasingly aiming at expanding their oil production capacity to cater to this growing demand. For instance, in 2025, Fortune Oil, an Indian edible oil-producing company announced its plan of investing USD 59.5 Million for acquiring small regional enterprises to expand its vegetable oil production capacity. As F-style jugs are extensively used for packaging edible oil in 2 liters, 5 liters, 10 liters, and 15 liters capacities, such developments are projected to bolster sales in the Asia Pacific excluding the Japan market.
As per Future Market Insights, North America is anticipated to exhibit healthy growth in the global F-style jugs market during the forecast period 2025 to 2035.
