Demand for converted flexible packaging is forecast to expand 4.2 percent per
year to $16.5 billion in 2011. Growth will be attributable to cost, performance and
source reduction advantages over most rigid packaging. Moreover, heightened barrier
requirements in many markets will drive increased demand for value-added materials to
enhance shelf life or product protection. Developments in breathable and self-venting
films and resealable features will also fuel growth. Additionally, demographic changes
such as greater numbers of single-person households and older consumers will support
demand for more convenient prepared foods and single-serving portions. This trend will
boost material consumption as smaller packages tend to use more packaging relative to
their size.
