Rigid Bulk Packaging

Growth in the US rigid bulk packaging market will total 3.3% annually through 2020 in value terms. Gains will be driven by the adoption of high value reusable systems and a good outlook for the chemicals and durable goods markets. Advances will be mitigated somewhat by competition from flexible alternatives and the durability of many containers in this market, which slows replacement demand.

Rigid bulk packaging products include:

• Pails
