Protective Packaging To Continue Strong Growth A new report from market research firmThe Freedo- nia Group predicts demand for protective packaging in the United States is forecast to expand 4.9 percent per year to $6.8 billion in 2019, bolstered by strong gains in Internet shopping. According to Protective Packaging, as consumers purchase more products on- line, demand will increase for packaging that can pro- tect these goods from shock, vibration, abrasion, and other damaging effects of shipping and handling. The study says environmental concerns will bring about a number of changes for protective packaging. Rigid protective packaging products are expected to post healthy gains as molded pulp and paperboard protectors both benefit from a less variable pricing structure and trends toward sustainability.
