World demand for caps and closures is projected to rise 5.3 percent per year
to $46 billion in 2016. In volume terms, demand will grow 4.1 percent annually
to 1.9 trillion units. Value gains will be supported by raw material price
increases and greater use of value-added closures such as dispensing,
child-resistant, and tamper-evident types. Unit advances will be driven by the
continued popularity of single-serving bottles in the beverage market and
further inroads by plastic containers into closureless packaging segments such
as metal cans. Other factors contributing to rising demand include growth in
global manufacturing output, increased consumer spending on packaged goods
worldwide, and the use of closures on popular container types such as gabletop
cartons, aseptic cartons, and spouted stand-up pouches.
Beverages to remain largest cap & closure market
The beverage segment will remain by far the single largest cap and closure
market. Gains will be supported by the continued popularity of single-serving
beverages and the widening presence of plastic bottles in markets once
dominated by glass bottles and metal cans. However, preventing faster gains
will be the maturity of several large beverage applications such as beer and
carbonated soft drinks. Also moderating demand growth will be continued
competition from closureless packaging options, such as aluminum beverage
cans, peelable lidding, and pouches. Furthermore, a significant deceleration
in bottled water growth due to environmental concerns will also moderate cap
and closure prospects, as will the commodity nature of most beverage closures.
Opportunities in the food market will benefit from demand for dispensing and
other valueadded closures such as non-drip flip top pourer caps, boosted by
convenience advantages.
Plastic caps & closures will post fastest growth
In terms of materials, plastic will continue to account for the largest share
of cap and closure demand and will also see the fastest increases. The global
cap and closure industry is directly affected by container demand trends and
changes in the container mix resulting from competition among various
packaging media. Plastic containers, which typically use plastic closures,
will continue to gain market share at the expense of metal, paperboard, and
glass packaging due to their cost advantages, shatter resistance,
resealability, and graphics capabilities, as well as improved resin and
processing technologies resulting in enhanced barrier properties, heat
resistance, and design flexibility.
Demand for metal caps and closures will exhibit below average growth, as they
continue to lose market share to plastic closures. Furthermore, demand for
metal crown caps, which are often used with glass bottles, will be restrained
by weak gains in glass packaging. The heavier weight of glass containers and
their risk of breakage will continue to limit gains -- especially in export
markets -- due to high shipping costs. Among other closure types, elastomer
and rubber stopper demand will register strong gains, driven by widespread use
with plastic vials and large volume parenteral packaging in the
pharmaceutical, medical diagnostic, and other health care markets. Cork demand
will see sluggish growth, due to stiff competition from relatively less
expensive synthetic corks and aluminum screw caps in the wine market.

Press Release
World Demand for Caps & Closures to Reach $46 Billion in 2016
February 20th, 2013
Global Information Inc. would like to present a new market research report, "World Caps & Closures to 2016" by The Freedonia Group.
World demand for caps and closures is projected to rise 5.3 percent per year to $46 billion in 2016 . Value gains will be supported by raw material price increases and greater use of value-added closures such as dispensing, child-resistant, and tamper-evident types. Unit advances will be driven by the continued popularity of single-serving bottles in the beverage market and further inroads by plastic containers into closureless packaging segments such as metal cans.
The beverage segment will remain by far the single largest cap and closure market . Gains will be supported by the continued popularity of single-serving beverages and the widening presence of plastic bottles in markets once dominated by metal cans. Preventing faster gains will be the maturity of several large beverage applications such as beer and carbonated soft drinks. Competition from closureless packaging options, such as aluminum beverage cans, peelable lidding, and pouches, will continue. A significant deceleration in bottled water growth due to environmental concerns will also moderate cap and closure prospects.
In terms of materials, plastic will continue to account for the largest share of cap and closure demand and will also see the fastest increases . Demand for metal caps and closures will see below average growth, as they continue to lose market share to plastic closures. Among other closure types, elastomer and rubber stopper demand will register strong gains, driven by widespread use with plastic vials and large volume parenteral packaging in the pharmaceutical, medical diagnostic, and other health care markets.
Overall, the most rapid increases in cap and closure demand will occur in the worlds developing regions . The Asia/Pacific region (especially developing Asian countries) will post fast gains and remain the biggest market due to its large food and beverage industries. The highest growth rates are expected in India and China, with Indonesia, Brazil, Russia, and Mexico also expected to see robust advances. In contrast, market maturity in developed countries (as well as market saturation in bedrock applications such as bottled beer, water, and carbonated soft drinks) will moderate overall growth.
