Nestlé will shortly launch a new Smart Seas special-edition of its confectionery brand Smarties in Europe.It comes in paper packaging with a theme of marine animals, available in four different designs, according to a report in Industry Intel. By scanning the packaging’s QR code with a mobile phone consumers can bring marine animals to life via an augmented reality (AR) feature.

Tokyo – June 16, 2021 – Toppan Printing (Toppan) (TYO: 7911), a global leader in communication, security, packaging, décor materials, and electronics solutions has developed NFC1 labels combining high-quality metallic design with maintenance of the communication performance required of NFC tags.

Today, BOBST reveals several new solutions to support that vision, all built on the four cornerstones of Connectivity, Digitalization, Automation, and Sustainability, helping customers to deal with the packaging production transformation.

Tokyo – June 3, 2021 – Toppan Printing (Toppan) (TYO: 7911), a global leader in communication, security, packaging, décor materials, and electronics solutions, and Toppan Group company Toppan (Shanghai) Management will be showcasing their latest solutions at AIPIA Asia Summit 2021 (June 23), the international congress for smart packaging, and Luxe Pack Shanghai 2021 (July 7–8), the premier trade show for luxury packaging.

Load Stability Performance Testing of Unitized Packaged-Products for Transit Whitepaper
The stability of unitized loads provides challenges for many companies around the globe. The ISTA Standards Council authorized a workgroup to be formed with the objective to improve the industry’s ability to predict the effects of non-restrained events that occur on unit loads in a generalized supply chain.

The start-up company IonKraft has its roots at the IKV – Institute for Plastics Processing in Aachen, and transfers scientific findings on plasma coating to industrial production technology.

Despite facing a barrage of choices down every aisle, a trip to the supermarket is no harrowing journey for the modern consumer. Compared to the grand tapestry of human history, we are in the favorable position of being spoiled for choice rather than risking the purchase of spoiled food or beverages. The globalization of the supermarket – where “in season” has become a moot term – is a result of the drastic increase in product shelf life through the technological leaps-and-bounds of packaging.

The packaging is user friendly, the material kind to the environment, the machine powerful: the KHS Group’s Innopack Kisters CNP (Carton Nature Packer) processes can toppers made of cardboard at a rate of up to 108,000 cans per hour.

Toppan Printing (Toppan), a global leader in communication, security, packaging, décor materials, and electronics solutions, has launched a cloud-based ID authentication platform in China that uses unique IDs to link real-world products to the digital world. By fusing its ID device technology with NFC-enabled ID authentication system infrastructure from Selinko SA (Selinko), Toppan has established a cloud-based ID authentication platform in China that creates customer touchpoints and facilitates supply chain management through safe and secure authentication of unique IDs assigned to individual products.

The stability of unitized loads provides challenges for many companies around the globe. The ISTA Standards Council authorized a workgroup to be formed with the objective to improve the industry’s ability to predict the effects of non-restrained events that occur on unit loads in a generalized supply chain. To tackle this objective, the workgroup walked through research, discussions, and experiments to understand field inputs that create load stability issues and test methods that can be used to predict the effects of those inputs on shipping units.
