This year's winner of the PKN Women in Packaging Design & Branding Visionary Award, Pippa Corry of philo & co, shares her wisdom on sustainability platform ecoporium by Ball & Doggett. PKN is the media partner for ecoporium.

Pippa Corry, in conversation with Zaidee Jackson, national business development manager at Ball & Doggett, describes philo & co’s process in supporting FMCG brands as they develop, manage and drive sustainability roadmaps.

The conversation covers how brands are adapting to new national packaging targets and takes a closer look at managing data integrity and its impact on reporting.

With fibre-based packaging solutions coming to the fore, the discussion also delves into defining the term pulpabilty, in the context of the recyclability of materials.

For any brands embarking on their sustainability journey, Corry provides essential advice for getting started.
