Folding Cartons: A Strong Message
The folding carton segment must
play off its strengths in key markets and
sustainability to compete for its share of the
packaging market.
Some overcapacity still exists in the industry that could lead to more plant closings and more consolidation, according to Markens. In 2008, the industry saw some noteworthy acquisitions—Graphic Packaging of Altivity, RockTenn of Southern Container Corp., and International Paper acquiring some units of Weyerhaeser. "I don't think there are many mega deals out there. However, there could be more targeted, strategic consolidations," he said.
