Euromonitor analyst uncovers key beverage packaging trends

New drinking occasions, smoking bans, and the popularity of RTD tea in Asia are among the trends driving beverage packaging innovation discussed with Euromonitor analyst Karine Dussimon.

At Emballage in Paris last month, BeverageDaily.com caught up with Dussimon to talk about the biggest trends affecting the beverage packaging industry.

Among the topics covered were the recreation of the bar experience at home, the re-launch of RTD alcohol pre-mixes and the drive to create new drinking occasions with new packs like the single serve plastic wine bottle.

Dussimon also discussed which packaging materials and packing types are enjoying the greatest levels of growth in global markets.
