Market Share of Paper Packaging Industry

The paper packaging market is fragmented with several players like International Paper, Mondi, Smurfit Kappa, WestRock Company, and more. The companies are innovating and entering into strategic partnerships to retain their market share. Companies constantly innovate with technology and redesign their packaging to get better performance, improve marketability, and enhance sustainability.

• In February 2024, Mondi Group expanded the production of its innovative range of paper-based EcoWicketBags as part of the rising need for sustainable home and personal care (HPC) packaging, specifically for diapers and feminine hygiene products. By expanding the production of EcoWicketBags at its Szada (Hungary) plant, Mondi further leverages the Group's integrated value chain, from in-house paper production to coating and converting.
• In January 2024, WestRock announced plans to construct a new corrugated box plant in Pleasant Prairie, Wisconsin, to fulfill customers' growing needs. This investment is expected to position the company to increase production capabilities and enhance its cost profile in Great Lakes. The construction is slated to cost approximately USD 140 million.
