The paper deliberates two concepts; the first is in using data to understand our world, which, by the way, is becoming increasingly important as a science from which we can derive trends to create models and forecasts. The second is our human footprint, an increasingly valid means to justify implementing circular systems into our economy and everyday lives.
Amcor is leading the way in the multivitamin category with the development and launch of the segment’s first PET container made from 100% post-consumer recycled content (PCR) resin.
SONGWON has developed a new, “design for circularity” approach that allows plastic to be recycled without loss of stability.

The new RFID and NFC tags are non-etched, paper-based transponder inlays that reduce the traditional use of PET-based substrates and by-products.
A new technology developed by BlakBear in partnership with TPG Rewards lets consumers know how much shelf life is left in every packaged food, even before they purchase it,
“Concerns around food hygiene due to Covid-19 could increase plastic packaging intensity, undoing some of the early progress made by companies,”
With the new SEAclic Boxes for fish and other fresh foods, the protective packaging specialist is launching a range of transport solutions with a focus on environmentally conscious and user-friendly design.
The members of EUROPEN, the European Organisation for Packaging and the Environment, are doing their utmost to maintain the necessary supply of food and hygiene products as well as medicines to citizens throughout Europe during the COVID-19 pandemic. To guarantee the continued uninterrupted flow of (packaged) goods, the Commission needs to recognise packaging and its raw materials as essential and to open the designated priority lanes, the “green lanes” for their intra-EU transport.
Research has shown that consumers support sustainable packaging for fairly sincere reasons. Consumers genuinely care, and they’re expecting more from brands.
US-based Aptar Food and Beverage, a part of AptarGroup, has unveiled an anti-pathogenic packaging solution to protect fresh cut produce.
