The forecasted sold production of folding cartons, boxes, and cases of non-corrugated paper or paperboard in the UK indicates a consistent decline from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 546.48 million kilograms in 2024 and dropping to 501.73 million kilograms by 2028, the industry is projected to witness a year-on-year decrease in volume. This steady reduction reflects a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) negatively impacting the sector over this five-year span.
Future trends to watch for include the impact of digitalization and sustainability practices, as consumer and regulatory push towards eco-friendly packaging could influence production methods and material choices, potentially altering the decline trajectory.
