The paper packaging consultancy NOA, explores the key dynamic trends in its “Strategic European Corrugated Report 2025 (SECG’25)
The European corrugated packaging sector is navigating a perfect storm of change: shifting retail behaviours, relentless pressure on sustainability, and rising volatility across supply chains. But amid the noise, one question stands out:
Where is it all heading?
NOA’s new Multi-Client report — SECG’25 — sets out to answer that question in detail. This isn’t just another snapshot of today’s market. It’s a full-scale map of where the industry is moving, what’s influencing it, and which companies are likely to come out ahead over the next five years.
Over the past six months, NOA has gathered insight from across the sector — not just from packaging manufacturers, but from the retailers, brand owners, and logistics partners who are driving packaging demand at scale. We’ve explored which pack formats are gaining ground in today’s turbulent economy, where plastic substitution is accelerating, and which end-use markets are emerging as the real growth zones.
The result is a report that offers more than just numbers. It’s a lens into the decision-making of those shaping tomorrow’s corrugated industry.
From construction types and flute profiles to print trends and volume forecasts, SECG’25 provides a detailed, market-by-market view of what’s next. But the heart of the report lies in its strategic guidance — showing not only how demand is shifting, but why it’s happening, and what packaging businesses can do to respond.
If you’ve ever asked yourself, Are we aligned with where the industry is going? — this report will give you the confidence to answer, and to act.
Whether you’re responsible for business development, innovation, operations, or investment planning, NOA’s Multi-Client report delivers the clarity needed to make better decisions, faster.
This is the most up-to-date and comprehensive analysis of the European corrugated market available today — and it’s tailored for those who want to look forward, not back.
The next five years are coming fast. Let’s make sure you’re ready.
