Mainetti's Mike Jones on Sustainable Packaging and Supply Chains

Innova Market Insights has announced its Top Packaging Trends 2026, with “Substantiated Sustainability” taking top spot. Driven by stricter regulations, the trend highlights the need for verified environmental claims. Fiber-based and other sustainable packaging solutions must be supported by credible data, as consumers show a willingness to pay more for substantiated sustainability benefits. #sustainablepackaging #packaginginnovation #sustainability #ppwr Read the full product innovation here 👉 https://lnkd.in/ePq4XaYN

Sometimes the simplest changes can make the biggest difference. By taking a closer look at our packaging design, we identified opportunities to streamline materials, improve efficiency, and incorporate recycled packaging without compromising product quality or usability. The numbers shown here demonstrate how seemingly small improvements can create a meaningful impact when applied consistently across thousands of products. At Mediplus, sustainability isn't a one-off initiative—it's an ongoing commitment to reviewing our processes, embracing continuous improvement, and making practical changes that help reduce our environmental footprint. Through thoughtful design and responsible material choices, we're taking positive steps towards a more sustainable future. ♻️ #Sustainability #SustainablePackaging #PackagingInnovation #PlasticReduction #SustainableBusiness #Mediplus

PCR (post-consumer recycled) is a cornerstone in powering the move towards a circular economy. ♻️ Instead of the traditional "take-make-dispose" model, a circular economy ensures materials stay in use for as long as possible. Check out IPG's PCR Solutions flyer: https://hubs.la/Q04pLSn80 #PostConsumerRecycled #Sustainability #SustainablePackaging #IPGLife

Whether your priority is advancing the circular economy or reducing virgin plastic consumption, the right solution depends on your operational strategy and sustainability goals. Choose our PCR solution to maximize recycled content, or our flagship G7 for exceptional performance with reduced virgin material usage.

🌍📦 Live from CONVERGE 2026 | Vienna International Centre The Circular Industrial Resource Efficiency Unit of the UNIDO Division of Circular Economy and Green Industry is pleased to participate in CONVERGE 2026: Packaging Sustainability Forum, taking place from 14–16 July 2026 at the Vienna International Centre in Vienna, Austria. ♻️ As governments and industries accelerate the transition towards more circular and sustainable packaging systems, CONVERGE 2026 provides a timely platform to shape the policies, technologies and partnerships needed to transform global packaging value chains. This year's programme explores how Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) and other emerging policy frameworks are accelerating innovation in packaging design, materials, circular business models and resource recovery. Discussions will also showcase practical solutions to reduce food loss and waste, improve resource efficiency and strengthen resilient circular packaging systems across global markets. 🌱 Through its Circular Economy and Green Industry Division, UNIDO supports governments and industries in advancing resource efficiency, circular value chains, eco-industrial development and sustainable production, helping businesses improve competitiveness while reducing environmental impacts. Through technical cooperation, policy advisory services, innovation and strategic partnerships, the Circular Industrial Resource Efficiency Unit helps countries redesign packaging systems that keep materials in use for longer, reduce waste and pollution, strengthen industrial resilience and create new economic opportunities. 🤝 We look forward to engaging with policymakers, industry leaders, innovators and partners throughout the forum to accelerate practical solutions for the future of sustainable packaging. 📍 Vienna International Centre 🗓 14–16 July 2026 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gHvhjwbd ; https://lnkd.in/exHaARGZ #UNIDO #CircularEconomy #GreenIndustry #ResourceEfficiency #CONVERGE2026 #sustainablepackaging #PlasticPollution #WasteRecovery #CircularValueChains #InclusiveRecycling UNIDO Food Business
