The "Global Beer Packaging Market 2017-2021" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global beer packaging market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.41% during the period 2017-2021.

One trend in the market is development of Green Fiber Bottle for beer packaging. At the World Economic Forum in Switzerland, in January 2015, Carlsberg announced an agreement to develop the world's first biodegradable wood-fiber bottle for beer packaging. This is a three-year project with packaging company ecoXpac, and the Innovation Fund Denmark and the Technical University of Denmark.

One driver in the market is increased consumption of beer. The global beer consumption was valued at 189.06 million kiloliters in 2016, marking a growth of up to 0.4% over the 2015 figures. China remained the largest beer-consuming country in the world, despite a decrease of 3.1% in 2016 when compared with the 2015 values. In 2016, South Korea witnessed an increase of 11.7% in beer consumption over the 2015 values due to the growing popularity of low-alcohol drinks among young adults.

Further, the report states that one challenge in the market is potential backward integration. The alcohol industry has been trying to consolidate in the recent years through vertical integration. This occurs when a company takes over new responsibility for added stages of the value chain. Backward integration involves producers taking control of their supply chain. This is relatively unusual in the alcohol industry. The potential backward integration can pose a major threat to the beer packaging market. This can cause an imbalance between the demand and supply for glass for use in beer packaging.
