Shoe Packaging Industry Overview
The shoe packaging market is semi-consolidated and comprises a few global and regional players, such as PackQueen and Packman Packaging Private Limited. Players like Smurfit Kappa, MARBER SRL, and DS Smith are vying for attention in this contested space. This market is characterized by low product differentiation, growing levels of product penetration, and high levels of competition.
- October 2023 - DS Smith unveiled its 'R8' center, designed to expedite the research and development of innovative packaging solutions. The center aims to address the industry's significant challenges and foster collaboration among DS Smith, its customers, and partners.
- July 2023 - Ales Grey, a prominent shoe brand, collaborated with material innovators Sway to introduce an eco-friendly solution. Their creation features compostable and bio-based components. This innovative packaging, derived from seaweed, completely reimagines the traditional shoebox. It is designed to minimize material usage and weight. The shoes are shielded during shipping by a 100% biobased film that rapidly decomposes, eliminating the need for additional packaging.
