Description

Global demand to grow 4.2% annually through 2012
Global demand for caps and closures is forecast to expand 4.2 percent per year through 2012 to $36.5 billion, representing 1.6 trillion units. Continuing urbanization and rising personal incomes in the developing world will support development of consumer nondurable goods markets, with closures and other packaging materials among the primary beneficiaries. However, over the 2008-2010 period, growth in all regions will be negatively impacted by the ongoing global economic malaise.

China to grow fastest
Above-average gains are expected in the world’s emerging markets, especially those in Asia. China will lead the way, accounting for almost 30 percent of projected unit gains in global cap and closure demand through 2012. The US, which accounts for one-fourth of global cap and closure value demand, will see strong value gains, fueled by a continued shift in the product mix toward valueadded configurations. Western Europe and Japan will see slower growth, hindered by mature markets and stagnant population growth.

Gains will also be supported by the continuing growth of closure- intensive plastic packaging at the expense of closureless containers such as metal cans. Advances will be limited to some extent by competition from packaging formats that do not use closures (such as stand-up pouches and blister packs) and by environmental concerns regarding plastic waste in general. Sales revenue growth will decelerate from the strong pace seen over the 2002-2007 period during a global commodity price boom, but will be aided by a continuing shift in the product mix in favor of value-added closure types that provide increased product safety, user convenience and/or shelf appeal.
