Global packaging industry
Global packaging industry turnover 2013 nearly 600 Mrd EUR,mainly in converted materials.
Primary packaging market is fragmented according tomaterials, converting and packaging technologies.
Transport packaging dominated by corrugated board.
Industrial packaging is mainly corrugated, plastic films anddifferent containers.
Corrugated board 105 milj. tons, Plastics 80 milj. tons,Cardboard 46 milj. tons, Bioplastics 1 milj. tons.
