The global collapsible crate market is anticipated to rise at a steady 5% CAGR through the end of the forecast period (2020- 2030). Following the coronavirus outbreak, the demand for B2B, industrial, and luxury packaging, has slumped. This in turn will negatively impact the collapsible crate market. Also, border closure for people and non-essential goods are expected to restrict collapsible crate manufacturers and distributors.
However, these losses will be partially mitigated by the rise of e-commerce services and the demand for relevant packaging materials. The decline in oil prices has also benefited collapsible crate manufacturers by reducing the costs of petroleum-based raw materials. The market trajectory remains uncertain, and recovery is dependent on worldwide government responses to the economic impact of the pandemic.
“Manufacturers of collapsible crates can find substantial remunerative opportunities by targeting their products towards grocery, e-commerce, healthcare, and pharmaceutical packaging applications. Essential designation given to these end use verticals will help to minimize the slump in the industry in the coming months,” says the FACT.MR analyst.
