Description

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.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
