Challenges Facing Folding Carton Printers
The folding carton industry is gearing up to take advantage of improving economic conditions by leveraging sustainability advantages, technology investments, and innovation.
What's ahead
In the 2012 PPC Trends Report, RISI predicts that shipments of folding cartons are forecast to grow at a 0.5 percent average annual pace between 2012 and 2016. While modest, growth is steady and forecasted to continue. It is expected that the pharmaceutical industry will offer the greatest opportunity for folding cartons during the next five years, followed by dry and frozen foods, food service/carry-out, and beverage industries. Although demand for rigid box-making volume will continue to decline, this industry is expected to maintain its hold on the high-end confectionery and perfume markets.
