The packaging manufacturers supply their products for the packaging of various products across end-use industry verticals, such as pharmaceuticals, food & beverages, and electronics, to name a few. Due to the restrictions imposed on manufacturing industries and the slowdown in economic activities, the packaging industry reported a significant downfall in its revenues globally.
