bags
metal cans
pouches
folding cartons
other packaging such as bottles and jars, and tub and cups.
Both primary and secondary rigid packaging are included in this report in cases where
the secondary packaging is typically used beyond the point of sale. For example,
secondary containers such as folding cartons for multipacks of pet food products are
included, while corrugated shipping boxes and merchandise display boxes are not. Also
excluded are containers for packaging pet beverages, health supplements, and pet
supplies. Other pet food packaging such as film wrap, trays, clamshells, baskets, pet
food storage containers, pails, and separately sold ends and closures are also
excluded from the scope of this report.
Semi-moist pet food, a small category sometimes classified separately by pet food
manufacturers, is included in the pet treats segment for the purposes of this report.
Total demand is also segmented by application as follows:
dry food
wet food
pet treats
chilled and frozen pet food.
To illustrate historical trends, total demand is provided in an annual series from 2003 to
2013; the various segments are reported at five-year intervals for 2008 and 2013.
Forecasts are developed via the identification and analysis of pertinent statistical
relationships and other historical trends/events as well as their expected
progression/impact over the forecast period. Changes in quantities between reported
years of a given total or segment are typically provided in terms of five-year compound
annual growth rates (CAGRs). For the sake of brevity, forecasts are generally stated in
smoothed CAGR-based descriptions to the forecast year, such as demand is projected
to rise 3.2% annually through 2018. The result of any particular year over that period,
however, may exhibit volatility and depart from a smoothed, long-term trend, as
historical data typically illustrate.
Key macroeconomic indicators are also provided at five-year intervals with CAGRs for
the years corresponding to other reported figures. Other various topics, including
profiles of pertinent leading suppliers, are covered in this report. A full outline of report
items by page is available in the Table of Contents.
