VALLEY COTTAGE, New York, January 20, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

Future Market Insights' research on the global protective packaging market predicts promising growth for flexible protective packaging 

In 2015, the global sales of protective packaging products exceeded 14 million tons in volume, with flexible products accounting for two-third of these revenues. The demand for flexible protective packaging products is expected to dominate the global market throughout the forecast period. The growth of global e-commerce industry is playing an instrumental role in consumption of flexible protective packaging products. Almost every other product sold online requires a protective wrapping that can cover various types of surfaces and object shapes. Integration of void fill and wrapping processes for packaging operations in the e-commerce business will continue to prompt higher sales of flexible protective packaging products. On the other hand, the combined market share of rigid and foam products in the global protective packaging market is likely to be lesser than 35% through 2026.
