The study involved four major activities in estimating the current packaging market size. The exhaustive secondary research was done to collect information on the market, peer market, and parent market. The next step was to validate these findings, assumptions, and sizing with industry experts across the value chain through primary research. Both top-down and bottom-up approaches were employed to estimate the complete market size. After that, the market breakdown and data triangulation methodologies were used to estimate the market size of segments and subsegments.
Secondary Research
In the secondary research process, various sources were referred to for identifying and collecting information for this study. The secondary sources included annual reports, press releases & investor presentations of companies; white papers; certified publications; news sources, articles from recognized authors; authenticated directories; and databases. Secondary research was mainly conducted to obtain key information about the supply chain of the industry, the monetary chain of the market, the total market players, market classification and segmentation according to industry trends to the bottom-most level, regional markets, and key developments from both the market- and technology-oriented perspectives.
Primary Research
In the primary research process, various primary sources from both the supply sides and demand sides were interviewed to obtain qualitative and quantitative information for this report. The primary sources from the supply side included industry experts, such as marketing directors, consultants, managers, and related key executives from major companies and organizations operating in the market.
