In relation to the packaging materials used by
industries, the largest participation, in 2010, was from
the Paper & board segment (31%), Plastics (21%)
and Flexibles (19%). For 2015 it is estimated that the
Plastics and Flexibles segments will show higher growth
rates (

Compared to the world market, the Paper & board
segment’s share in Brazil is lower (

higher proportions for the Plastics (27%), Flexibles
(22%) and Metals (19%) segments.
The definition of the materials showed on Tables
1.5 and 1.6 are:
• Paper & board:
paperboard, corrugated board and
liquid packaging board
• Plastics:
rigid plastic
• Flexibles:
Laminates, wrapping, membranes, bags,
flow pack, stand up pouches, shrink film, stretch
film among other films.
• Others:
Wooden boxes, pallets and woven textile bags.
The largest share of these regions’ sales is
from the Food (51%) and Beverage (18%) sectors.
Pharmaceutical Products, Personal Hygiene and
Cosmetics are the markets that may show the highest
growth rates, between 2010 and 2016 (
Table 1.4
),
although a lower participation on the total sales (6% and
5%, respectively).
