• Alcoholic drinks packaging is expected to register 1% total volume CAGR. Glass bottles will lose unit shares to metal cans but see a 1% CAGR.
  • Soft drink packaging is expected to have a CAGR of 3%, reaching 43.2 billion units in 2021.  
  • Liquid cartons should remain the most dynamic packaging types, with an expected CAGR of 4% to 2021. This should be driven by sales of 100% juice, coconut and other plant waters, and RTD tea. Brick liquid cartons will register the most positive performance, but shaped and gable-top versions are expected to emerge and consolidate.  Wine also drives growth in shaped liquid cartons and metal packaging, both expected to grow at 8% and 12% CAGR respectively.
  • Glass bottles should see a CAGR of 5%, leveraged by sales of 100% juice and premium still bottled water (particularly for foodservice).
