Logistics

U.S. packaging industry (2009)

Source: U.S. Census Bureau data & Flexible Packaging Association estimates

The market is overwhelmed by various packaging alternatives

Key requirements for packaging

  • Easy to manufacture & cost efficient

Economy

  • Easy to open, hold & close
  • Inform consumers about the product

Usability

  • Contain, Inform, Protect, Transport &

Display Basics

Flexible packaging has gradually replaced conventional ones Conventional Flexible

Flexibility and functionality at competitive cost for producer and affordable price for consumer is key driver of flexible packaging trend at present

What is the BEST one?

Flexible packaging provides many consumer conveniences including extended shelf life, easy storage, microwaveability & resealability

Recent structural changes of packaging industry: Catalyst for BO film demand

FLEXIBLE PACKAGING (FP)

Resource Recovery Sustainability Advantages Light Weighting

FP reduces waste, energy consumption & greenhouse gas emission FP waste can be reproduced into new FP FP waste may be used as feedstock to produce gaseous & liquid fuel

The lightweight package produces “less waste at the first place” Examples of light weighting between 2005 -2011:

  • Barrier enhancement: resulted in 50% less material for the same barrier
  • Material toughness: layers reduced up to 50%
  • Coextrusion technologies: enable weight reduction of up to 33%
  • Equipment innovation: allows some film thickness to be reduced to 50%

Beverage packaging example Glass bottle & metal cap Plastic PET bottle & cap Aluminum can Stand-up flexible pouch Product weight (g) 236 236 236 199 Packaging weight (g) 198.4 22.7 11.3 5.7 Product-to-Packaging Ratio 1:1 10:1 21:1 35:1 Packaging weight per 100 g product (g) 83.9 9.6 4.7 2.8 MSW/1 landfill per 100 g product (g) 54.5 6.0 2.4 2.8 Energy consumption (MJ/8 oz) 3.36 3.00 0.99 0.45 Emissions (Kg Co2e/8 oz) 0.29 0.18 0.08 0.02 1 2 3 4

Advantages of FP over alternative packaging

Remark: /1 MSW stands for municipal solid waste Source: FPA (Flexible Packaging Association) Case Studies

  • The flexible beverage pouch consumes ½ the amount of energy compared

to the closet alternative

  • The flexible beverage pouch generates ¾ less emission than the closet

alternative

  • The flexible beverage pouch uses less space in shipping than other

alternatives, reducing transportation emission while saving costs

  • CAGR (1998 – 2017) of 7.5% for BOPET
  • BOPET production capacity was increased drastically during 2011-2015, especially in China

and India causing serious global oversupply of BOPET film

  • As investment in new machines was slow down since 2015, and the consumption growth of

BOPET film is growing rapidly, the excess capacity has been mostly absorbed by the demand.

  • As a result, the Spread between BOPET film and PET resin is improving recently indicating

a good sign for BOPET market recovery.

  • Since 2016, the demand of BOPA film in China was increased by 15% PA while BOPA

production capacity expansion was not fast enough to serve the sudden change in demand, causing the spike in the spread to abnormal level.

  • Moving to end of 2016, BOPA film was under shortage especially in China, bumping the

price up 25% in fourth quarter and the trend continued until mid of 2017 when the market started becoming more stable.

  • New BOPA production capacity will be coming out in 2018 making more balance between

market demand and supply causing spread came down to more reasonable and realistic level, but still much higher than average spread in the last 5 years (approx. USD 600- 700/MT).
