Flexible Packaging

Nanotechnology offers techniques for degrading plastics that help address pollution issues caused by improper disposal.

Despite its benefits, multilayer plastic packaging faces complexities in recycling; innovation is key to a sustainable, circular economy solution.

Reducing the excess headspace in flexible packaging allows companies to diminish the demand for virgin plastics and decrease the volume of plastic introduced into the market.

Sustainability certifications like The International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC) PLUS can enhance brand reputation and open up new markets.

Minimizing the utilization of virgin plastic in business-to-business (B2B) plastic packaging represents a crucial stride toward tackling pollution. This strategy, advocated by The Consumer Goods Forum’s Golden Design Rules, has the potential to yield substantial environmental and economic advantages.

Corporate solutions are crucial in driving the development of innovative technologies and practices that address key challenges in recycling.

Stone packaging primarily consists of plastic mixed with calcium carbonate. The specific proportions of these components can vary depending on the intended application.

The Holy Grail 2.0 initiative led by the AIM-European Brands Association and powered by Digimarc is transforming the recycling landscape through innovative technology.

The plastics industry stands at a critical juncture, shaped by an increasing array of regulations aimed at mitigating environmental impact, particularly concerning single-use plastics.

Digital packaging emerges as a revolutionary player in transforming how consumers interact with products. Traditional packaging, primarily focused on protection and basic marketing, is evolving rapidly.

Brands and package designers are developing seaweed-based packaging as an alternative to single-use plastics. Companies such as PlantSea Ltd., Notpla Ltd., Sway Innovation and Loliware Inc. are all active in the space.

GreenMantra Technologies diverts thousands of tons of plastic from landfills, dumps, and the ocean. They leverage molecular recycling to produce sustainable additives from plastic waste.
