Establishments primarily engaged in manufacturing coated or laminated flexible materials made of combinations of paper, plastics film, metal foil, and similar materials (excluding textiles) for packaging purposes. These are made from purchased sheet materials or plastics resins and may be printed in the same establishment. Establishments primarily engaged in manufacturing coated or laminated paper for other purposes are classified in Industry 2672, including establishments manufacturing all gummed or pressure sensitive tape; those manufacturing unsupported plastics film are classified in Industry 3081; those manufacturing aluminum foil are classified in Industry 3497; and those manufacturing paper from pulp are classified in Industry 2621.
The industry designated by NAICS 2671, encompassing Packaging Paper and Plastics Film, Coated, and Laminated, is witnessing several qualitative trends shaped by sustainability initiatives and technological advancements. One prominent trend is the increasing demand for eco-friendly and biodegradable materials. Consumers and businesses alike are pushing for packaging solutions that minimize environmental impact, leading to the development of innovative products such as biodegradable films and paper-based laminates.
Another significant trend is the rise of smart packaging technologies. This includes the integration of QR codes, RFID tags, and other forms of digital interaction, which enhance supply chain transparency and improve the consumer experience. Additionally, advances in barrier properties are being made, enabling packaging to better protect contents from environmental factors such as moisture and oxygen.
Looking ahead, the near future forecasts include continued growth in the demand for sustainable packaging solutions, as regulatory pressures and consumer awareness drive innovation. Companies are anticipated to invest further in recycling technologies and materials science to meet these needs. Additionally, the adoption of automation and advanced manufacturing processes will likely increase efficiency and reduce costs, positioning the industry for robust growth and adaptation to rapidly evolving market requirements.
