  • Packaging continued to register positive performance in India during 2016. Growth was driven by the recovering economy and falling inflation.
  • Various new packaging formats were launched during the year, though not all were successful, as consumers remained price-conscious and continued to seek value for money. This increased demand for bulk packs, multipacks and smaller packaging, and discounting remained prevalent.
  • Beauty and personal care packaging were influenced by the need for convenience.
