Online program will see experts and thought leaders give their take on environmental sustainability
Esko is pleased to announce a new program of informative and exciting virtual events focusing on a megatrend in the packaging industry – environmental sustainability.
“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, Esko Director of Marketing, Industry Relations & Strategy. “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,” said Jan.
“During this new series of virtual events, sustainability experts, thought leaders, and representatives from across the packaging industry will give their take on how businesses can successfully turn the sustainability dial.”
The first event, on 18 October, will examine sustainable packaging trends expected in the coming decade. “We’ll analyze the major drivers and trends anticipated to impact the development of sustainable packaging through to 2032,” said Jan. “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.”
