  • Innovative and premium packaging diminished along spending in all consumption categories. As such, manufacturers encouraged consumers to trade down to returnable PET and glass bottles in the beverages industry, while larger pack sizes emerged in packaged food, driven by a lower price per kg/litre.
  • To attract consumers with deteriorated income, companies launched plastic pouches with a price per kilogram/litre much lower than traditional packaging In beauty and personal care and home care, which afforded plastic pouches the most dynamic evolution in 2016.
