Rigid Bulk Packaging NEW US industry forecasts for 2015 & 2020
Report description
This study examines the US market for rigid bulk packaging. Historical data (2000, 2005 and 2010) and forecasts to 2015 and 2020 are presented for drums, pails, material handling containers, bulk boxes and rigid intermediate bulk containers (RIBCs). Markets for these products include chemicals and pharmaceuticals; food; plastic, rubber and fiber products; petroleum and lubricants; agricultural and horticultural products; durable goods; and hazardous waste storage and handling. In many instances, rigid bulk packaging types and
markets are further delineated. Historical data and forecasts on the consumption of major rigid bulk packaging raw materials (plastic, steel and paperboard) are also presented. Excluded from this study are pallets and wood containers, and corrugated and solid fiberboard containers other than bulk boxes and corrugated RIBCs. The study also excludes cans, bottles, jars and tubs used for the packaging of bulk sizes of foods and other consumer goods. Unless otherwise noted, all figures represent either shipments or demand for rigid bulk packaging in units or dollars. The term “shipment” includes production from all US manufacturing establishments that is then shipped to both US and foreign markets. “Demand” (or sales, apparent consumption) is defined as all shipments from US plants, plus imports, minus exports.
In addition, the key strategic and competitive variables affecting the US rigid bulk packaging industry are discussed, and market leaders are identified and profiled. The entire study is framed within the context of overall economic conditions as well as rigid bulk packaging industry’s demographic, regulatory and technological environments.
Throughout this study, demand is related to various indicators for comparative purposes and to facilitate further analysis. Tabular details may not add to totals due to rounding, and calculated ratios reflect unrounded numbers. Corporate information sources include annual reports, SEC 10-K filings, product catalogs and other company information. Rigid bulk packaging-related revenues by company presented in the “Industry Structure” section are estimates based on information from company annual reports and/or fact books and consultation with multiple sources. Macroeconomic indicators presented in this study were obtained from The Freedonia Group Consensus Forecasts dated December 2010. Due to the Bureau of Economic Analysis’ use of chain weighted price indices, inflation-adjusted Gross Domestic Product components (2005 dollars) do not add to the total.
