How Will The Introduction Of Smart Ribcs Influence Sales?
Smart RIBC containers comprise of radio frequency identification (RFID) microchips placed inside the central plank to collect information in real-time. It offers a solution for product tracking, asset tracking, and inventory management. In the coming years, the need for smart RIBCs is anticipated to increase as the supply chain becomes more automated.
The inclusion of RFID in RIBC also helps to prevent the use of damaged containers and identify the operational life of containers. Owing to these benefits most of the end users are gradually adopting smart RIBCs over the traditional one. Against this backdrop, sales are projected to increase year-over-year by 5.3% between 2021 to 2022.
How Is The Agrochemicals Industry Boosting Sales Of RIBC?
The chemical sector’s favorable outlook is projected to boost the global RIBC market. Rapid expansion of the food & beverage sector in North America is resulting in growing usage of safe agrochemicals for crop development and growth. These industries are using RIBCs for effective packaging and transportation, which in turn is providing impetus to sales.
Rigid IBCs are increasingly being used to transport hazardous and valuable chemicals without leakage. They can also be easily reinforced, preventing the escape of gases. When transporting hazardous substances, the United Nations (UN) has established severe standards that are in place worldwide. It is critical to use safe and long-lasting packaging. As a result, demand for single-use IBCs is expected to rise.
