Rigid Bulk Packaging
US Industry Study with Forecasts for 2018 & 2023
Gains will be driven in part by expanded use of larger, higher value reusable bulk containers
that are more cost effective than smaller bulk containers with shorter service lives.
US demand to rise 4%
annually through 2018
Demand for rigid bulk packaging is
projected to increase 4.0 percent per
year to $7.3 billion in 2018. A resurgence
in manufacturing output and construction
activity will fuel rebounds in the production of chemicals and plastic materials,
which will support heightened demand
for related rigid bulk packaging. Additionally, gains will be driven by expanded
use of larger, higher value reusable
containers that are more cost effective
than smaller containers with shorter
service lives. Advances for these larger
containers will be moderated by competition from flexible intermediate bulk
containers (FIBCs) in some applications.
Prospects will also benefit from trends
that are increasing the competitiveness
of the manufacturing sector in the US,
including insourcing (also called reshoring or onshoring) and rising production of
shale oil and gas. These factors will
moderate the outsourcing of production
that has restricted growth for manufacturing in recent decades.
RIBCs, material handling
containers to lead gains
Rigid intermediate bulk containers
(RIBCs) and material handling containers are expected to see the fastest
growth through 2018. Beyond a brighter
economic picture, advances for these
containers will be driven by cost benefits
over smaller or single-trip containers
arising from factors such as greater
reusability, and storage and handling

efficiency. Demand for RIBCs and
material handling containers will also be
boosted by increased emphasis among
users of these containers on sustainability and closed-loop supply chains. Plastic
drums will post above average gains
based on cost and performance advantages over fibre and steel drums.
Nonetheless, advances will be held back
by competition from RIBCs as well as
the entrenched position of steel and fibre
drums in certain applications. Drums, the
largest rigid bulk packaging product type
in value terms in 2013, will register
improved growth from the recessionimpacted 2008-2013 period but increases will trail the overall market as a result
of further losses to alternative formats,
especially larger capacity types.

Page Pails
Chemicals, drugs to be
fastest growing markets
Chemicals and pharmaceuticals generate more than half of demand in the
dominant nondurables market, and will
experience the fastest gains. Growth will
be fueled by a rebound in chemical
output combined with the healthcare
needs of an aging US population and
continuing innovations in drug development. Growth in the food and beverage
market will be helped by population
increases, improved consumer spending
levels, and favorable prospects for value
added food types such as prepared and
assembled products, which tend to
contain bulk ingredients shipped in rigid
and flexible bulk packaging.

into various bulk packaging applications and gain ground against smaller
bulk containers (e.g., steel and plastic drums). Gains for plastic body
RIBCs will reflect the inherent advantages of these containers, including
extended reusability; improved space utilization; ease of handling, loading, filling, and dispensing; and design features that improve drainage
or facilitate loading and unloading. Preventing faster growth will be
drawbacks of higher costs associated with tracking, cleaning, and reuse
of RIBCs.

Plastic body RIBCs are made from rigid plastic, mainly HDPE, and
can be either freestanding or have a tubular steel outer cage to withstand
stacking loads. The latter, which is the most common plastic RIBC
format, utilizes a blow molded plastic container. Advances in large-part
blow molding processes have enabled the production of blow molded
RIBCs of 275 gallons and larger. Blow molding can offer advantages
related to more complex manufacturing requirements, such as the use of
different resins in a multilayer container.

All-plastic RIBCs include units made via rotational molding and
injection molding. Rotational molded containers, which are thicker and US RIGID BULK PACKAGING MARKET SHARE
($6.0 billion, 2013)
more impact resistant than blow molded RIBCs, do not utilize a metal
cage. These containers are also more likely to serve as storage containers rather than shipping containers. Injection molded RIBCs resemble
material handling containers and are often made by material handling

IBC North America specializes in the manufacture and sale of
blow molded, composite, rigid intermediate bulk containers (RIBCs)
for the handling and storage of dry and liquid products. The privately
held company also makes underground and aboveground storage tanks
and process/mixing tanks. In addition, IBC North America has an
RIBC reconditioning and plastic business called Clean Tide Container
(Robertsdale, Alabama).
The Company participates in the US rigid bulk packaging industry
through the manufacture of PASSPORT and IBC GREEN RIBCs,
which are both designed to ship and handle a variety of hazardous and
nonhazardous bulk liquids. PASSPORT RIBCs consist of fluted blow
molded high density polyethylene (HDPE) bottles encased in square tubular metal cages. The fluted design of the HDPE bottles allows them
to nest into the tubular frame, adding extra capacity to each PASSPORT
RIBC. IBC North America manufactures the metal cage component of
PASSPORT RIBCs via a patented four-point welding process at each
joint. These RIBCs are available attached to galvanized steel, heattreated wood, or blow molded HDPE pallets. The Company produces

Corrugated & Paperboard Boxes
US corrugated and paperboard box demand will rise
2.6 percent per year to $39.4 billion in 2018. Corrugated and solid fiber boxes will remain the largest
and fastest growing product segment. The food and
beverage market will remain dominant, based in part
on more value-added boxes such as display ready
and moisture-resistant types. This study analyzes
the $34.7 billion US corrugated and paperboard box
industry, with forecasts for 2018 and 2023 by material, product and market. The study also evaluates
company market shares and profiles industry players.
