Weighing Up the Competition

This industry supplies downstream industries with pallets and containers to store and transport these consumer and industrial goods. Containers weight and volume is expected to decline over this period as slow boats and ships will be replaced by high speed transoceanic vessels and airplanes in intercontinental freight. This means lighter weight materials, such as plastic, fiberglass and paperboard are likely to offer substantial competition to this industry.
