Esko will conduct a new online program of informative virtual events that will see experts and thought leaders focus on a megatrend in the packaging industry, environmental sustainability.
During the new series of virtual events, representatives from across the packaging industry will present their take on how businesses can successfully turn the sustainability dial.
“We all know that amidst political volatility and economic uncertainty, brands and their packaging suppliers are also facing increasing pressure to demonstrate their environmental sustainability credentials,” said Jan De Roeck, director of marketing, industry relations and strategy at Esko.
“As a result of global public concern, and depending on the market a business operates in, having sustainable operations has rapidly evolved from being a nice-to-do strategy to a must-do critical demand.
“These drivers of change – responding to consumer demands and accelerating their own sustainability commitments – require the industry to deliver a wholesale shift in packaging design, development and production.”
The first event on 19 October will examine sustainable packaging trends expected in the coming decade.
“We’ll analyse the major drivers and trends anticipated to impact the development of sustainable packaging through to 2032,” added De Roeck.
“This will be followed by further events, looking at everything from best practice and how to integrate sustainability with other industry influences, through to real-world case studies showing how technological innovation has resulted in profitable solutions that also achieve environmental goals.
“Esko is excited to host this series to give its customers insights they can act on.”
