YOUR BOX FORMING PARTNER
While organizations without a significant digital presence may be feeling the pressure, there is one sector who is enjoying the current online shopping boom: cardboard and paper packaging.
E-commerce packaging is skyrocketing, according to a recent report by Smithers Pira. The global packaging consumption of online stores in 2020 was 40% more than the year before. In 2020 the market has reached a worth of $51.7 billion from which corrugated cardboard packaging has a share of $41.6 making e- commerce one of the most important markets for packaging companies and suppliers.
Besides the restriction of physical shopping and the convenience of online shopping, there are other reasons for the success of cardboard: its sustainability and consumer preference for environmentally friendly packaging.
Consumers today demand more sustainable packaging from fashion brands when making online purchases, according to a new study. This study, which spoke to consumers in the UK, Germany, Ireland, The Netherlands, also found that since the beginning of corona pandemic 41% of the online shoppers have become more environmentally conscious, with 35% stating that they will not buy from a retailer who has not got sustainable packaging.
To sum it all up, consumers prefer cardboard packaging because it is a sustainable solution.
