Thin Wall Packaging Markets Europe 2023

Published: March 2023

Overview:

Thin Wall Packaging in Europe remains comparatively fragmented, but the consolidation is on-going and at pace. Only by probing into the activity of both large and smaller producers can the size and structure of demand be properly demonstrated, and the variations by end-use application highlighted. This depth of analysis serves to highlight opportunities and threats by end-use application and provides insight into winning supplier strategies. A clear business definition and portfolio strategy are fundamental in exploiting the forward opportunity, based on:

Consumer trends impacting the demand for packaged goods.
Current and future demand by application within country. The data will be segmented by type of polymer consumed.
Structure of supply within each application segment including structural change within the segment and geographical distribution.
Current and future demand within each application segment. Special attention will be paid to the drivers of future demand including inter-polymer competition.
Any emerging end-use application niches within the wider market scope.

Potential propositions provided by new products/technologies and the criticalities in their commercial development.
