Overview
As we move from the global tumult caused by Covid 19 to the global tumult being caused by the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the global packaging sector has proven resilient and vibrant while continuing to consolidate across substrates. What happened in 2021 and, most importantly, what is happening in 2022 and beyond with rising input prices, labour shortage, inflation, growing ESG requirements and rising interest rates is top of mind. We’ll provide our perspective on the ever-evolving environment and what it might mean for you.
