Packaging is one of the largest end-use sectors for plastics. Because part costs for the individual pack are low and the polymers used account for a high share of the overall calculation, price movements feed through more directly here than in other areas.
For packaging, standard plastics and selected secondary materials are particularly relevant. They are used in films, bags, cups, bottles, tubs, trays, closures, and protective packaging.
