The Global Corrugated Boxes Market Size is valued at 65.18 billion in 2023 and is predicted to reach 91.54 billion by the year 2031 at a 4.37% CAGR during the forecast period for 2024-2031.
Corrugated boxes are disposable containers made by joining three layers of corrugated cardboard sheets together. They are lightweight, flexible, biodegradable, recyclable, and cost-effective, and they aid in the protection of fragile objects during transportation. They remain intact when exposed to unfavorable conditions such as moisture and abrupt temperature changes. Furthermore, they help to reduce the danger of microbial contamination and extend the shelf life of items. As a result, corrugated boxes are widely used in a variety of industries for effective product packaging. Furthermore, increased R&D initiatives to update and improve the chemical resistance, dimensional stability, and other qualities of corrugated boxes are broadening their applications.
However, people were not permitted to leave their homes during the lockdown in all countries, but due to an increase in consumer goods consumption, demand for e-commerce products has skyrocketed, resulting in an increased need for corrugated packaging as home delivery was the only option left for the people. The rise in online grocery stores, personal hygiene and home cleaning products, and baby supplies with home delivery services has raised the demand for corrugated packaging in all nations throughout the epidemic.
The corrugated boxes market is segmented based on material, printing ink, printing technology, type, and end-use. Based on material, the market is segmented as liner board, medium, and others. The printing ink segment includes water-based ink, UV-curable ink, holt melt-based inks, and solvent-based inks. By printing technology, the market is segmented into flexography, lithography, and digital printing. The type segment includes slotted boxes, telescope boxes, rigid boxes, and folder boxes. The end-use industry segment includes food & beverages, electronic goods, home & personal care, chemicals, textile, glassware & ceramics, paper products, and others.
The liner board category is expected to hold a major share of the global corrugated boxes market in 2024. Due to its great strength and moisture resistance, it is utilized as an outer and intermediate ply in corrugated boxes. They are primarily used to produce high-quality color-printed corrugated boxes for the food and beverage industries, home and personal care, and other industries.
The slotted box segment is projected to grow at a rapid rate in the global corrugated boxes market. They are often constructed from a single piece of corrugated board that has been swapped, glued, and taped. The slotted box is a well-designed product that produces less waste during the manufacturing process. It is great for shipping a wide range of items, such as mugs, cups, and books.
Asia Pacific corrugated boxes market is expected to register the highest market share in terms of revenue in the near future. The existence of densely populated nations like China and India, as well as increasing urbanization and spending power, will assist the growth of the packaging business in the Asia Pacific and, therefore, corrugated boards. Increasing environmental consciousness and the need for greener packaging solutions in the region will propel the market forward. Furthermore, government moves in nations such as India to restrict plastic-based packaging would shift the focus to paper packaging. Foreign Direct Investments (FDIs) and investments in a variety of packaging projects in Asian countries are expected to rise rapidly. Furthermore, economic and industrial advancements in Europe would establish a solid foundation for corrugated board demand growth in the region throughout the projection period.

InsightAce Analytic follows a standard and comprehensive market research methodology focused on offering the most accurate and precise market insights. The methods followed for all our market research studies include three significant steps – primary research, secondary research, and data modeling and analysis - to derive the current market size and forecast it over the forecast period. In this study, these three steps were used iteratively to generate valid data points (minimum deviation), which were cross-validated through multiple approaches mentioned below in the data modeling section.
Through secondary research methods, information on the market under study, its peer, and the parent market was collected. This information was then entered into data models. The resulted data points and insights were then validated by primary participants.
Based on additional insights from these primary participants, more directional efforts were put into doing secondary research and optimize data models. This process was repeated till all data models used in the study produced similar results (with minimum deviation). This way, this iterative process was able to generate the most accurate market numbers and qualitative insights.
Secondary research
The secondary research sources that are typically mentioned to include, but are not limited to:
The paid sources for secondary research like Factiva, OneSource, Hoovers, and Statista
Primary Research:
Primary research involves telephonic interviews, e-mail interactions, as well as face-to-face interviews for each market, category, segment, and subsegment across geographies
The contributors who typically take part in such a course include, but are not limited to:
Data Modeling and Analysis:
In the iterative process (mentioned above), data models received inputs from primary as well as secondary sources. But analysts working on these models were the key. They used their extensive knowledge and experience about industry and topic to make changes and fine-tuning these models as per the product/service under study.
The standard data models used while studying this market were the top-down and bottom-up approaches and the company shares analysis model. However, other methods were also used along with these – which were specific to the industry and product/service under study.
