The metal (aluminum) cans segment is expected to witness sluggish growth in the next five years, due to the slow growth performance being experienced by the beer and carbonated soft drinks markets. The market share of glass bottles in the non-alcoholic beverage containers market is estimated to shrink in value share, owing to the increased adaptation of plastic bottles by end users.
