Flint Group Joins Printing Seminar

Flexible Packaging Market Continues To Surge Growing end-user industries such as food and bev- erages, cosmetics and toiletries, healthcare, and oth- ers such as household products, oil & lubricants, agricultural products, and sporting goods are the major factor boosting the growth of the global flexi- ble packaging market around the world, according to a report from Zion Market Research. In addition, con- tinuously changing consumer lifestyles and growing consumption of ready-to-eat and pre-made meals are other factors impacting the global flexible packaging market in a positive way. The competition in the flexible packaging market is constantly growing mainly due to increasing demand from various end-user industries such as food & bev- erages, cosmetics & toiletries, and healthcare. Asia Pacific is anticipated to be the largest player in the global flexible packaging market mainly owing to increasing demand from end-user industries in coun- tries such as India, China, and Japan.The other reason for such large growth of Asia Pacific is the growing population and increasing disposable income in these countries.
