Glass Returns to Growth: The Outlook in Food and Beverages

The glass packaging industry has suffered losses from the economic downturn and constraints placed on consumer spending. The performances in 2010 and 2011, however, provide reasons for optimism, as, despite the threats from competing packs, especially from within the soft drinks industry, expansion potential exists in the core end-uses of beer, wine and spirits, with emerging regions proving particularly fruitful. Polarisation and wellness present opportunities for value-added glass to exploit.
