Intercontinental Trade of Industrial Products to Boost Demand for Fiber Drums
Growth in demand for fiber drums is expected to result from expanding intercontinental trade. This is likely to boost the demand for shipping and packaging industry, consequently raising the uptake of fiber drums as packaging solution.
Vendors in the fiber drums market have consistently worked on improvement in product design and value creation for end user. Since, global trade of industrial products has also increased three fold during the past decade, it necessitated industries such as bio-chemical manufacturers, food grade ingredient manufacturers, and pharmaceutical companies etc. to use fiber drums to reduce their carbon footprint.
Demand is also anticipated to be driven by widened use of large, layered fiber drums which ensures increased performance and are also economic in terms of drums made with materials such as metal and plastic. The adequate sealing of these drums with metal makes them an ideal choice for shipping across rough seas. The increasing performance of lightweight bulk containers such as these drums has strengthened the scope of their usage.
“The challenges associated with recyclability of fiber drums is building infrastructure to manage increased recycling and segregation of substrates such as closure lids or polyethylene lining to prevent leakages. Ensuring these steps before recycling the fiber drums would ensure that they never end up in a landfill or dump. This involves strengthening and developing more advanced recycling technologies. One-time investment in recycling is expected to result in a long-term benefit for vendors in the fiber drums market,” says an FMI analyst.
Impact of COVID-19 on Fiber Drums Market
The COVID-19 pandemic undoubtedly has led to massive disruptions in the market with shortage of raw material, fractured supply chains. The packaging industry highly depends on related industries for its sales and revenues. Thus, with every other industry taking a hit, the fiber drums market is also seen a decline in sales in Q1-Q2 2020.
Fiber drums manufacturers, will need to adapt with the global pandemic, which is forcing manufacturers to look for contingency plans and understand the vulnerabilities associated with the supply chain. This might result in reducing dependencies on any one country and increasing preference for domestic players for the need of raw materials. In the long run this could also boost local economies, create jobs, and reduce cost of raw materials.
The fiber drums market is largely dependent on demand from end use industries such as chemical Industry, food & agro-allied industry, pharmaceutical industry, building & construction industry and others. In the coming days, as supply chains restore, demand for food & agro allied and pharmaceutical industries will witness a high demand owing to food security issues and increasing number of patients with COVID-19 and otherwise.
These two types of demands are projected to drive the fiber drums market as shipping these on urgent basis will be national priority. Ensuring pharmaceuticals and food reaches the end user in a non-contaminated and intact manner will play a critical role in the deciding the success of this market.
