European flexible packaging market

According to a new report by PCI Films Consulting, growth in Europe’s flexible packaging market was broadly maintained at 1.4% in 2014. Principal factors are the stabilising demand in France, Italy and Spain following previous declines, a sharply slowing Russian market and decline in Ukraine, together with continuing lack of inflationary pressures.
The market continues to be dominated by Germany, France and the UK, which together account for nearly 50% of demand in the region. However, markets in Eastern Europe are steadily increasing their share of the total. In 2014, the number of companies producing consumer flexible packages was over 700 (PCI News Item, 15 June 2015).
