Description

This Frost & Sullivan study evaluates the global tertiary and eCommerce packaging market from 2021 to 2031, highlighting emerging trends, regional dynamics, competitive priorities, and growth opportunities. Tertiary packaging, the outermost layer safeguarding goods during transport and storage, has become increasingly critical as retail business channels expand and complex logistics heighten expectations for safe and efficient handling.

Along with tertiary packaging, this study explicitly covers last-mile eCommerce packaging, given its growing importance in online retail business fulfillment. The market is segmented by packaging materials, packaging formats, end-use industry verticals, and business fulfillment channels. Key materials examined include paper and paperboard, plastic, and wood. Geographically, the study covers 4 regions: the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia (MEASA), and Asia-Pacific (APAC).

Paper and paperboard-based packaging hold a dominant position in the global tertiary market due to their strength, stackability, recyclability, and design versatility. These materials balance protection and sustainability, making them the preferred choice for multi-touch logistics and high-volume shipments. APAC leads the market due to fast-growing eCommerce, robust retail demand, and a sizable consumer base, boosting the need for efficient tertiary and eCommerce packaging solutions.

The study analyzes the functioning of the interconnected ecosystem, identifies key growth drivers and challenges, evaluates the competitive landscape, and highlights top opportunities that have the potential to transform the market. The base year of study is 2024, and the forecast period is from 2025 to 2031.

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.
