Pouches

Growth in the US pouches market will total 4.4% annually through 2020 in value terms. Gains will be fueled by the transition from rigid packaging formats such as folding cartons to pouches, particularly stand-up types. The use of value-added features, such as closures and dispensing spouts will also lead to value gains and adoption of pouches in new markets.

This report segments the pouch industry by Type and Market. Data is provided in million US dollars and billion units.

Pouch types include:

• Pillow

• Side-seal

• Stand-up

Pillow pouches will remain the largest of these through 2020. Fastest growth will be for stand-up pouches, driven by their ability to provide shelf distinction, space efficiency, and high visibility of the packaged contents.

Major markets include:

• Candy & Snacks

• Processed Foods

• Medical & Pharmaceutical

• Beverages

• Produce

• Meat, Poultry, & Seafood

• Consumer Products

• Pet Food

• Cheese

• Industrial

Candy and snacks was the leading outlet in 2015. The most rapid gains through 2020 are forecast for the industrial market, fueled by the cost advantages that often exist in the transition from rigid packaging to flexible formats for bulk shipping.

Most pouch users manufacture their pouches internally using form/fill/seal machinery. However, the use of pouches by smaller firms has led to gains in the market for premade pouches that are formed and bought from converters. Industry participants include Amcor, Bemis, Berry Plastics, Coveris, Hood Companies, Mondi, Printpack, ProAmpac, Sealed Air, and Sonoco Products.
