Flexible Packaging Market Research
Report Global Trends & Forecast to 2018
New Market Research Report Flexible Packaging Market by End-Use (Food, Beverage, Personal Care & Pharmaceutical),
Material (Polypropylene, BOPP, CPP, Polyethylene, EVOH, PA, BOPET, PVC, Aluminum, Paper, Cellulosic) – Global Trends
& Forecast to 2018 added to rnrmarketresearch.com
The flexible packaging market is considered to be one of the most dynamic packaging markets exhibiting diversified
types of packaging and materials used across the regions. This report estimates the market size of this global market in
terms of revenue and volume. Food, beverage, personal care products, and pharmaceutical industries are the most
important constituents of consumer packaged goods. Food packaging dominates the market share in terms of value as
well as volume. In terms of geography, the report is segmented into Asia-Pacific, Europe, North America, and Rest of the
World (ROW). This global packaging market is broadly divided on the basis of raw materials used such as polypropylene,
polyethylene, EVOH, PA, BOPET, PVC, cellulosic, aluminum, and paper. With a huge market potential and growing
consumer preference, the market is likely to witness substantial growth in the coming years.
In the current packaging environment, flexible packaging is an important packaging solution for a saturated industry. It
plays a vital role in protecting and extending the shelf life of end-products. A variety of resins may be used for
conversion and developing the required packaging solutions. Depending on the characteristics of the end-product and
value to be offered by packaging, the selection of resins and packaging type is decided. The right packaging type is
essential to preserve the end-products such as food, beverage, personal care products, and pharmaceuticals and
prevent untoward chemical reactions endangering the consumer’s health. Hence, an efficient and suitable packaging
solution is imperative for every product.

The flexible packaging market consists of various stake holders such as packaging manufacturers, traders,
distributors, and raw material suppliers of food, beverage, personal care products, pharmaceuticals, and
end-users. The companies enjoying substantial market share are Amcor Ltd. (Australia), Sealed Air
Corporation (U.S.), Bemis Company Inc. (U.S.), Mondi (South Africa), Huhtamäki Oyj (Finland), and
Sonoco Products (U.S.). Key industry players are increasing their business and consolidating their
presence by pursuing mergers and acquisitions in potential markets. Top six players in this global
packaging industry held a market share of around 58.0% indicating participation of a large number of
players in this market. This fragmented industry structure is primarily due to the availability of number of
pack types and raw materials used for flexible packaging.
The figure above shows the growth trend from 2013 to 2018. The global flexible packaging market is
projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.1% from 2013 to 2018. Polyethylene dominated this global market by
material accounting nearly 32% of the total market share and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.1%
during the forecast period. Polypropylene accounted for the second largest share in the segment growing
at a CAGR of 4.9% during the period under review. Polypropylene comprises of Biaxially oriented
polypropylene (BOPP) and Cast polypropylene (CPP). Of these two, the Biaxially oriented polypropylene
segment holds a significant share of around 80%, growing at a CAGR of 5.2% from 2013 to 2018. Paper
and Aluminum are growing at a CAGR of 5.5% and 5.4% respectively. Cellulosic is one of the materials
which show potential growth in the future. It is projected to grow at a CAGR of 8.2% through to 2018.

The North American market is expected to show a modest growth trend, owing mainly to the saturated end-use
markets in the region. The European market, which has also witnessed signs of maturity, is given a small boost by
the East European nations. Environmental awareness among consumers has meant that there is a swing in
market shares among the packaging materials.
Changing consumer preferences and high disposable incomes in APAC economies drives the end-use market The
APAC region is leading in the flexible packaging market shares. The developing economies such as China and
India are driving the growth in this region. Consumer preferences in convenience foods, westernized eating
habits in terms of packaged food demands, and rising disposable incomes are some of the important factors
influencing the trend. In the same way, the growing food and beverage processing industry in Brazil and other
Latin American countries drives the growth in ROW. The Olympic Games 2016 scheduled in Brazil will also act as
a significant boost to the tourism industry, and in turn the consumption of packaged food in the region.
