Data users: 1. The information in this notice is used by the UK government and the EU as evidence for assessing market conditions and evaluating agricultural policy. The farmgate price of UK eggs are required quarterly under Regulation EC 1165/2008 (Animal Production). 2. Representatives of the egg and poultry industry are also major users of the data. The data on egg production volumes and egg type are the key sector indicators for the British Egg Industry Council (BEIC) as they reflect the size of the national laying flock. The Home Grown Cereals Authority (HGCA), part of the Agricultural and Horticultural Development Board, rely on egg production data as a good indicator of the commercial layer flock and associated feed demand and hence grain usage by the sector. Our statistics are also often heavily referenced in industry publications such as “Poultry World”. Methodology: 3. Defra runs a quarterly survey of registered UK egg packing stations. It is a voluntary sample survey of 27 respondents that collects information on throughput by production type and prices of graded eggs and sales of ungraded eggs. The response rate is typically 100 per cent and the survey accounts for 75 per cent of eggs packed in the UK. The survey figures are raised up to give UK estimates using information on the number of commercial laying hens, average egg yields, average mortality rates, the proportion of UK eggs that go through packing stations. Throughput by egg type for packing stations not surveyed is calculated using data provided by packing stations responding to the survey. The raised figures are published in this statistics notice and the associated datasets. The figures in this notice therefore represent all Class A eggs passed over a grader in the UK, including seconds. The prices obtained on the survey are weighted according to the volume of eggs packed by each packing station to obtained average prices for the UK. From 2012, prices include any bonus payments paid to producers. The Egg Processor survey is a quarterly survey of all registered egg processors. It is a voluntary survey of 13 respondents run by Defra that collects information on the number of eggs bought by egg processors and the quantity of egg products produced. The response rate is typically 100 per cent . These figures come from HM Revenue and Customs, but are validated and adjusted if necessary prior to publication. The Standard Industrial Classification codes used to produce each table are given in the footnotes below the tables. 4. In tables that show numbers of eggs the units used are 'thousand cases'. There are 360 eggs in one case. 5. The data are subject to a variety of validation checks which identify inconsistencies in the data. All data are cleaned prior to publication. 6. The percentage changes shown are calculated using unrounded figures. Thus any percentage changes calculated using the published (rounded) figures may not equate exactly with the changes shown. Revisions policy: 7. Figures in this dataset are provisional and subject to revision. We will provide information about any revisions we make to previously published information in this dataset, and the associated statistics notice. Revisions could occur for various reasons including : a. if we have not received survey data from respondents we make an estimate based on their previous returns. These estimates will be replaced with actual survey data when it is received. b. survey respondents occasionally supply amended figures for previous periods. c. we may also revise the methodology used to raise the survey data to give UK totals. This quarter there are no revisions to previously published throughput figures

Egg Tray Market Outlook

The global egg tray market size was valued at USD 2.3 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach USD 4.5 billion by 2032, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8% during the forecast period. This growth is primarily driven by the increasing demand for eggs and poultry products, which is fueled by changes in dietary patterns and a heightened focus on protein-rich diets. Additionally, the global rise in population, urbanization, and disposable income has led to higher consumption of eggs, contributing to the robust growth of the egg tray market. The ongoing advancements in packaging technologies and the development of eco-friendly materials are further catalyzing market growth.

One of the significant growth factors contributing to the expansion of the egg tray market is the increasing consumer awareness regarding food safety and hygiene. With rising health consciousness, consumers are becoming more concerned about the packaging of food products, including eggs. Egg trays are designed to protect eggs from physical damage and contamination during storage and transportation, thereby ensuring the freshness and quality of the eggs. The shift towards sustainable and biodegradable packaging solutions is also boosting the demand for paper-based egg trays, which are environmentally friendly and recyclable, aligning with the global trend towards sustainable consumption.

Technological advancements in production processes are also playing a crucial role in the growth of the egg tray market. Manufacturers are investing in automated production lines to enhance the efficiency and precision of egg tray manufacturing. The adoption of advanced molding techniques allows for the production of egg trays with varying capacities and material types, catering to the diverse needs of end-users across different sectors. This has led to the availability of a wide range of egg trays that are tailored to specific applications, such as retail, transportation, and food service, driving the market forward.

Furthermore, the expansion of the retail sector, particularly in developing regions, is providing significant impetus to the egg tray market. The growth of supermarkets, hypermarkets, and convenience stores has increased the accessibility of eggs to consumers, necessitating efficient packaging and transportation solutions. The rise in e-commerce platforms is also contributing to market growth by facilitating the distribution of eggs and egg-related products to remote areas. As a result, the demand for high-quality egg trays that ensure the safe delivery of eggs is on the rise, further propelling market expansion.

Regionally, Asia Pacific is expected to witness the highest growth in the egg tray market, driven by the large consumer base and the increasing consumption of eggs. The presence of major egg-producing countries such as China and India, coupled with rapid urbanization and changes in dietary habits, is fueling the demand for egg trays in this region. North America and Europe are also significant markets, with a strong emphasis on sustainable packaging solutions and food safety regulations supporting market growth. In contrast, the Middle East & Africa and Latin America are emerging markets, with growth primarily driven by expanding retail infrastructure and rising awareness about the benefits of egg consumption.

Material Type Analysis

The egg tray market is segmented based on material type into plastic, paper, and foam trays. Each material offers unique properties and benefits, catering to the diverse requirements of consumers and businesses. Plastic egg trays are known for their durability and resistance to moisture, making them ideal for long-distance transportation and storage in humid environments. They are also reusable and easy to clean, which makes them a popular choice among large-scale poultry farms and retailers. However, environmental concerns regarding plastic waste have led to a growing demand for alternative materials.

Paper egg trays, on the other hand, are gaining popularity due to their eco-friendly nature. Made from recycled paper pulp, these trays are biodegradable and recyclable, aligning with the global shift towards sustainable packaging solutions. Paper trays offer excellent cushioning and protection for eggs, which reduces the risk of breakage during handling and transportation. Due to their lightweight and cost-effective nature, paper egg trays are widely used in the retail and food service sectors. Additionally, innovations in paper tray manufacturing have led to improved designs and strength, further enhancing their appeal
