Study #: 2558 Published: 10/2009 Pages: 404 Full Study Price: US$ 4,900 Per Page Price: US$ 30.00 Converted Flexible Packaging to 2013 - Market Research, Market Share, Market Size, Sales, Demand Forecast, Market Leaders, Company Profiles, Industry Trends US converted flexible packaging demand will grow 3.4 percent annually through 2013. Gains will be supported by cost, performance and source-reduction advantages over most rigid packaging. Pouches will grow the fastest, including stand-up types as well as relatively newer products such as flat-bottomed, side-gusseted and stick types. This study analyzes the $15.2 billion US converted flexible packaging industry. It presents historical demand data for the years 1998, 2003 and 2008, with forecasts for 2013 and 2018 by material (e.g., plastic film, paper, aluminum foil), product (e.g., bags, pouches) and market (e.g., food packaging, nonfood packaging). The study also considers market environment factors, details industry structure, evaluates company market share and profiles 35 industry players, including Bemis, Alcan Packaging and PrintPack.
