Market Sector
Industrial Packaging
Our coverage of industrial packaging focuses on corrugated boxes and containerboard. Containerboard and corrugated boxes are closely correlated with industrial output of non-durable goods and retail sales, requiring a combination of in-depth macroeconomic analysis and board market fundamentals to gauge future conditions and price dynamics.
Numera provides detailed analysis and projections for all key global markets and grades of the corrugated and containerboard sectors. A subscription to our corrugated and containerboard coverage offers access to:
Short and long-term forecasts
We provide a combination of high frequency short-term forecasts and lower frequency, highly detailed long-term forecasts for corrugated and containerboard covering all key sector variables by grade category, including shipments, capacity, trade and operating rates to keep clients updated on latest market developments.
Detailed capacity project lists
Clients also have access to an exhaustive global capacity project list detailing, for every project, the country concerned, the exact location, the company involved, the grades produced, the capacity change and the effective start-up or closure date. Each entry also includes other relevant comments pertaining to the project.
Recovered Fibre detail
Corrugated and containerboard subscribers can also elect to receive access to our coverage of the recovered fibre markets, including reports and databases delivering key intelligence on consumption, trade flows and pricing for Old Corrugated Containers (OCC).
Unbiased price and cost reporting
Unlike traditional survey-based price reporting agencies, Numera publishes unbiased containerboard price estimates. They are derived through dynamic modelling of border transactions, specifically intended for use in forecasting and benchmarking applications. Our prices also allow for proper accounting of spot transactions, discounts and rebates as well as monitoring effective pass-through of announced price changes. Get in touch for a list of published prices or to discuss customized price reporting needs.

In addition to regular reporting and access to our online platform, clients also benefit from easy access to analyst support to meet their needs. Our analysts can help interpret the data, automate regular queries, and deliver critical insights on any corner of the market, from semi-chemical medium to coated liner.
Numera also operates primary data collection programs in key markets to provide high-frequency, granular data and analysis when trade associations are unwilling or unable to do so directly. Read more about this initiative in Latin America.
