Market Share of North America Stick Packaging Industry
The North America stick packaging market comprises several global and regional players vying for attention in a contested market space. The industry is highly fragmented, comprising market incumbents such as Amcor Plc, Constantia Flexibles Group GmbH, Fres-Co System Inc, IBR Packaging, HWR Packaging LLC, and several regional packaging firms.
- November 2023 - Amcor announced signing an MOU with one of the largest sustainable polyethylene manufacturers, NOVA Chemicals Corp., for procuring RPE (Recycled Polyethylene) to produce flexible packaging films. One of Amcor’s key initiatives to promote packaging circularity is increasing the use of RPE in flexible packaging. NOVA Chemicals is looking to grow its recycling operations in North America in the next few years to meet its industry-leading goal of achieving a 30% market share of total sales of polyethylene (PE) from products containing recycled materials.
- April 2023 - Fres-Co System USA Inc. has launched a sustainability-driven approach exemplified by submitting and certifying its recyclable coffee package in the NextRex Recycling program, which stands as a critical growth strategy for the company. The certification of its gusseted retail coffee package, coupled with the innovative degassing valve, highlights Fres-co’s commitment to eco-friendly practices and establishes it as the first single-source flexible packaging provider with ultra-high barrier packaging and a near-zero oxygen transmission rate certified in the program.
