    The Containerboard Market is being driven by Booming e-commerce industry

    The Containerboard Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.9% during 2024 and 2029. During this period, the market is also expected to show a growth of USD 25.4 billion. In the evolving industrial landscape of the twenty-first century, sustainability has become a paramount consideration for manufacturing and consumption processes. This trend, often referred to as Industry 4.0 or the fourth industrial revolution, has brought about significant advancements and enhancements in the packaging sector. One such development poised to make a substantial impact on the global containerboard market is the adoption of flexible packaging. Flexible packaging, characterized by its malleable nature, offers numerous advantages over traditional containerboards. These advantages include enhanced safety and extended shelf life, heating and barrier protection, ease of use, high resale value, and superior printability. As consumer preferences lean towards convenience and customization, the demand for flexible packaging is projected to grow exponentially over the forecast period. This shift towards flexible packaging is expected to significantly influence the global containerboard market dynamics.
