UK Corrugated Board Packaging Industry Overview
The United Kingdom corrugated board packaging market is fragmented owing to the presence of many players with new solutions in the country. Also, several global players are expanding their presence by expanding their operations in the United Kingdom. The market players are also forming strategic partnerships and collaborations to boost their market presence and gain maximum market traction. For instance,
- In October 2022, a 30% share in CorrBoard UK Ltd, a privately held corrugated sheet company in North Lincolnshire, United Kingdom, was purchased by VPK Packaging Group NV (VPK). CorrBoard UK would be fully supported by the Rigid Containers Ltd, a VPK company that converts 340 Million mĀ² corrugated material annually in the United Kingdom and Ireland.
- In May 2022, Smurfit Kappa acquired cardboard box company Atlas Packaging an independent corrugated packaging provider that has a significant domestic presence having production capacity ranging from 500 to 1000 units.
