Packaging demand is driven by COVID-19 Pandemic
Our FutureBridge analysts continue to monitor the impact COVID-19 will have both short- and long-term in the Food & Nutrition Industry. In the Packaging Innovation trend, we have identified a boost in both flexible and rigid packaging due to increased online deliveries and consumer demand. For example, revenue in the UK online delivery segment is up 11.5% in 2020 YTD versus the comparable period last year. Additionally, as consumers place increased attention on packaging’s possible ability to protect from the virus, better barrier properties such as Aptar’s active packaging solution, InvisiShield, is expected to gain from these events.
