Global packaging sacks market by construction sector

The construction industry has highest share in use of packaging sacks because of packaging of construction materials such as sand, cement while making roads, ports, buildings, and other construction activities. However, the growth rate is slow, posting a below average CAGR of 1.86%. This is because of slow construction activities due to the global economic slowdown of 2009.

“Although with a slow growth rate, the construction sector has picked up from 2014 and there will be positive growth over the next four years. Emerging markets will be responsible for most of the growth in this sector,” says Sharan Raj, a lead analyst at Technavio for research on packaging.

The report has estimated that emerging market construction sector will grow at a rate of more than 3.3% during the forecast period. This is much lower than the growth rate of more than 7% in last one decade. Developed economies are also expected to show a positive growth rate of more than 2%, which is much better than negative growth rate which prevailed after 2009.

Despite moderate growth rate by the chemical and fertilizer sector, the market share of packaging sacks is expected to decline from 23.98% to 23.53%, posting a slow growth rate of 1.73%. Main reason for the use of rigid industrial packaging like drums, intermediate bulk container (IBC) in chemical, and fertilizer sector. Packaging sacks are mainly used for lower volumes fertilizer and chemical products.

Consumption from these regions is expected to grow at rate of 4% during the forecast period. China has highest share of chemical sales globally.

Global packaging sacks market by horticulture sector
