👀 Quand l'emballage inspire une consommation plus durable… À l'occasion d”ALL4PACK EMBALLAGE PARIS 2024, l'epda (european brand & packaging design association) interviendra dans une conférence sur le rôle des emballages dans une consommation plus responsable. 💡 Selon notre enquête réalisée avec OpinionWay, 87% des Français font désormais le lien entre suremballage et protection de l'environnement.

Leading the way to Sustainable Design: Workshop Insights & Next Steps Earlier this month we kicked off the first part of our EPDA Sustainable Design Principles workshop, and we're delighted to announce that the second part will take place on 6 December!
