What it does
Submit your packaging portfolio with volumes and current prices. The Index Simulation models the cost impact of specified commodity price movements across your entire portfolio, breaking out impact by format and supplier, and calculating total P&L exposure under each scenario.
Example use case
A CFO stress-tests the packaging budget. The simulation models: Base (zero change), OCC +15% (plus £186,000), energy crisis (plus £312,000 across corrugated, glass, paper), and PP resin -10% (minus £94,000 on flexible and labels). Board receives a risk matrix with mitigation actions.
Frequently asked questions
What commodity movements can I model?
Any PackIndex L1 or L3 movement — by percentage or absolute value. You specify the scenario.
Can I model multiple simultaneous movements?
Yes — the simulation handles correlated scenarios like energy up 30% AND OCC up 20% simultaneously.
Is the output board-ready?
Yes — a formatted cost bridge table with scenario P&L impact, ready to paste into a presentation.
