The report focuses on the US paperboard packaging market. The report covers market size in terms of value & volume and segmentation of overall paperboard packaging industry on the basis of organized and unorganized sector, by types of products, by grades, by virgin or recycled paperboard, by Applications, by types of papers used, by regions and by E-commerce and offline clients. The potential and future outlook for paperboard packaging has also been discussed in the publication. The report provides detailed analysis of major players, their strategies, and porters five forces model, Trends & Developments and major issues and challenges with the US paperboard packaging industry in the US. The report also serves as a benchmark for existing players and every new player who wish to capitalize the market potential and investors who are looking forward to venture into the paperboard packaging industry in the US.


The overall global packaging industry has been valued at USD 600 billion in 2015 of which the Paperboard Packaging products constituted 42%. The benefits and multiple usages in all the sectors had driven the market of paper board packaging globally. The expanding E-commerce industry, FMCG industry and retail industry had also fueled the demand of paperboard packaging in the world. Additionally, due to rising environmental concerns the government has been encouraging the use of paperboard packaging products which had created the huge potential for the paperboard manufacturers over the past few years.
The paper packaging industry caters the needs of many sectors in the economy such as Food & Beverages, Automobile, Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG), Pharmaceuticals, Durable goods, Tobacco and many more. Rising retail sector in US and robust growth in the e-commerce industry from past five years had driven the market of paperboard packaging industry in the country. In a country like the US where the purchasing power of the people is high as compared to other countries, goods are usually sold in luxurious packaging material which contributes significantly towards the rising demand for paper packaging products in the country.
Ban on usage of non-renewable resources for packaging in the country had increased the demand of renewable resources. Moreover, paper board packaging can be scored, folded, curved and custom die-cut in countless ways. In several states of the US, the plastic bags are banned during the period of 2012-2015. Recently the California state of the US had passed a law of prohibition of plastic bags usage in 2014 and it was implemented from July, 2015. Rise in concern for environmental issues in the country had forced many companies to use renewable raw materials for making packaging boxes. This had triggered the market of paperboard packaging in the country. Paperboard can be re-used again for making different materials.
According to the research report, the paper board packaging market will record revenue of USD 66 Billion by 2020 due to more players entering the market, expansion of e-commerce sector in the country, increasing demand of personal care & health care products, rising retail and consumer goods industry.
“Increasing demand of paperboard packaging in the country had increased its production in the country. The leading and the emerging countries should regularly upgrade their manufacturing plants to increase the manufacturing capacity of the plant. The companies should also establish their own recycled mills and should focus on manufacturing innovative products in the paperboard packaging industry in the country. Due to the increase in demand of raw materials required to make the paperboard packaging products, the companies should form strategic partnerships with the suppliers of the raw materials in the US” according to the Research Analyst, Ken Research .

Innovation Trends and Opportunities in Suncare; Exploring the key consumer behavior and innovation trends impacting suncare
Single user price: $1,495
Concerns over sun damage are highest in regions with warmer climes
4


Sun damage is of significant concern to today’s consumers
On a global level, just under one third of consumers say that they are concerned about sun damage. If this is broken down regionally, the highest levels of concern are seen in the Middle East and Africa, followed by Latin America, and Asia Pacific. This is unsurprising given that the climate of these regions makes the need for effective sun protection much higher. In contrast, regions with cooler climes, such as Europe, have the lowest levels of concern globally. Despite this, high awareness of the impact of sun damage on the skin, particularly in today’s informed society, is creating a favorable environment for this category.
Sunburn features slightly lower levels of concern on a global level which can be attributed to this issue often being associated with specific occasions, such as being on the holiday. On a regional scale this attitude is replicated with one exception being Latin America where concerns over sunburn are slightly higher than that of sun damage.
IT Services Global Industry Guide_2016
Single user price: $1,495
Global IT Services: Market Overview
The global IT services market is made up of a mixture of booming markets such as China and India and markets with low growth or stagnation such as Japan and Spain. Stable moderate growth has been the overall trend in recent years and the market is expected to slowly accelerate into strong growth over the forecast period to 2020.
The industry is fragmented despite the presence of large, international incumbents (e.g. IBM, HP, Fujitsu and Accenture). These larger players drive the widespread adoption of more advanced service offerings. The export-led nature of many IT services in developing countries has allowed skilled workforces to build up and given firms the opportunity to begin to place more focus on domestic markets.
The global IT services industry had total revenues of $724.9bn in 2015, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.2% between 2011 and 2015. In comparison, the Asia-Pacific and US industries grew with CAGRs of 4.1% and 3.1% respectively, over the same period, to reach respective values of $199.9bn and $257.6bn in 2015.
The application services segment was the industry's most lucrative in 2015, with total revenues of $321.0bn, equivalent to 44.3% of the industry's overall value. The infrastructure services segment contributed revenues of $261.8bn in 2015, equating to 36.1% of the industry's aggregate value.
Cloud computing systems are expected to achieve dynamic growth over the next few years as buyers expand the use of data centers and advanced analytics in order to manage the vast amounts of data being produced in the connected world. The positive impact of this transition on the IT services market could be balanced by a decline in outsourcing & processing services as many more tasks become automated through the use of artificial intelligence-based algorithms.
The performance of the industry is forecast to accelerate, with an anticipated CAGR of 4.9% for the five-year period 2015 - 2020, which is expected to drive the industry to a value of $922.4bn by the end of 2020. Comparatively, the Asia-Pacific and US industries will grow with CAGRs of 6.5% and 3.5% respectively, over the same period, to reach respective values of $274.4bn and $306.6bn in 2020.
Future of the Indonesian Defense Industry - Market Attractiveness, Competitive Landscape and Forecasts to 2021
Single user price: $1,250
The Indonesian defense market, which values US$6.97 billion in 2016, is expected to grow at a CAGR of 11.13% during the forecast period, to value US$11.94 billion by 2021. The economy has been growing at an average rate of 7.9% over the forecast period, and this has fuelled defense expenditure in the country. Furthermore, the growth in defense spending is also driven by the need to modernize the Indonesian Armed Forces under the Strategic Plan 2024. With most of its military equipment and platforms belonging to the Soviet-era, the Ministry of Defence (MoD) is currently investing to replace aging hardware and upgrade existing equipment. Furthermore, Indonesia is focusing on developing its indigenous military industrial base in order to reduce its dependency on foreign suppliers. Moreover, with increasing tensions in the South China Sea and territorial disputes with South-Asian nations, Indonesia is investing in protecting its coasts and deploying forces on the Natuna Islands. Asan archipelago in Southeast Asia, which consists of 17,000 islands, the country is prone to natural disasters and is enhancing its military readiness for disaster relief operations and humanitarian assistance. The country’s defense budget is expected to be capped at an average of 0.89% of GDP over the forecast period.
The Indonesian MoD is expected to increase its capital expenditure from US$2 billion in 2016 to US$3.3 billion in 2021, in an effort to modernize its armed forces and support existing projects. Various procurements, which have led to an increase in the capital budget allocation, include the Sukhoi Su-30MK2s aircraft, Su-27 SKM, and Su-35 fighters, AS565 Panther anti-submarine warfare (ASW) helicopters, hang Bogo-class tactical submarines, two landing ship tanks (LSTs), AH-64 Apache Longbow gunship helicopters, and German Leopard tanks. Over the forecast period, the country is expected to invest in infrastructure construction, multi-role aircraft, naval vessels such as submarines and frigates, cyber security, border security, unmanned aerial vehicles, radar systems, and computer network defense capabilities, which will drive the growth in its capital expenditure.

Government Subsidies to Further Boost Power Tiller Demand in India: Ken Research

A major portion of the demand for Power tillers in India come from Southern and Eastern part of the country which signifies the trend of large amount of Paddy crop cultivation. With the power capacity of 5.5HP to 13 HP the average cost of the power tillers in India is recorded at INR 95,000. For small farmers who are not capable of buying tillers for such high cost, they look for the option of custom hiring where the machines are available for hiring at certain cost for a certain period.  Custom hiring is a viable option for farmers however in recent past with Government initiatives to support farming by allowing subsidy in agriculture equipments, sales for farming equipments have witnessed a rise.

In 2012, Tamil Nadu state government decided to provide subsidy to the farmers to purchase Agriculture Equipments which was ranging from 25-25% supported by under the National Agricultural Development Programme (NADP). The subsidy was mainly allotted for harvesting machines, weeding machines, power sprayers, threshing equipment, mini-tractors, power tillers and small farm equipment. This has further helped tiller manufacturers to gain market share and forecast market growth by 15% in 2017.

The government subsidies further supported the market growth of power tillers which differ as per the scheme launched by the state government.  The north-eastern state of Assam also announced allocation of 20 power tillers on a 75% discount to each assembly constituency during its annual budget for the year FY’2010. Orissa is considered to be the largest power tiller market in the country and account for one fourth of the power tillers sold in India.

Due to low cost, Chinese power tillers have gained popularity and expected to showcase positive growth trend in Indian agriculture equipment market forecast.

Rising Influence of e-commerce on Retail Sector of Thailand: Ken Research

·         There are many retailers who have launched their own mobile applications either for marketing purposes, promoting products or directly communicating with consumers

Ken Research announced latest report on, “The Future of Retailing in Thailand to 2020; Comprehensive data overview of the market, with retail sales value and forecasts to 2020” which discusses detailed analysis of retail sector and the leading players. It also provides information about the Thailand retail sector value chain. The report sheds light on how the existing players can use this information to gain the competitive edge in the market. Additionally, major trends and drivers have also been covered, describing the market penetration and future potential of the industry. The report enables the reader to interpret future outlook on how the market will shape up by the end of this decade.

Its retail market has developed quickly to match with the changing lifestyles of consumers which are increasingly influenced by the internet. There has been a wider use of credit and debit cards facilitating online payments due to which, the number of credit and debit cards in circulation increased by about 22 million to 67 million in 2014. There is a need for the government to implement the short- and long-term measures because mid-to-low-income consumers who rely on agricultural income still have low purchasing power and they need stimulus from the government through Village Funds. This shuts the sale of non-durable goods which has seen virtually no growth. According to TRA, average growth was 8 per cent annually from 2002-2012 and during 2012-2014; sales contracted 3 per cent a year and continued to shrink. According to the statistics, the government focuses more on infrastructure and exports than on economic and consumption stimulus. The government regulations are stringent like foreign investor in the retail or wholesale sector is required to obtain a Foreign Business License from the Director General of the Commercial Registration Department of the Ministry of Commerce, and gain approval from the Foreign Business Committee.

The major contributors of growth in retail industry of Thailand are surging government expenditure and investment, low crude oil price and inflation increasing purchasing power and growth in the tourism sector. Specialist retailers were the gigantic channel group of total retail sales in 2015 and will continue to command the market in 2020. During 2015-2020, online channel is set to grow swiftly while food and drinks specialists channel is set to be the largest in terms of retail sales.
