The #beverageindustry is at a pivotal juncture as it grapples with the dual demands of sustainability and consumer appeal. As environmental concerns mount and regulatory pressures intensify, beverage manufacturers are increasingly compelled to rethink their #packaging strategies. Traditional labels, often composed of non-recyclable materials and printed with environmentally harmful inks, contribute significantly to the industry's carbon footprint and waste management challenges.

Launch of new refillable cleaning wipes at major retailer A new refillable cleaning wipes brand, biom, has launched at Target as part of the US retailer’s initiative to introduce more sustainable products. Biom’s reusable dispenser comes in neutral colours and the biodegradable wipes are available in refill packs for around $7 (£5.51). These wipes, made without polyester or polypropylene, offer a convenient, clutter-free alternative to traditional brands. Since its 2021 launch, Biom has raised $4.5 million and seen a 149% increase in sales from 2022 to 2023. Target’s inclusion of Biom in approximately 600 stores and online reflects the growing demand for sustainable consumer products. Target’s sustainability efforts, such as the Target Zero and Target Clean labels, aim to reduce virgin plastic use in packaging by 20% from 2020 levels, although recent data indicates an 8% increase so far. This initiative aligns with Target’s goals to explore reuse and refill alternatives. Via ThePackHub Innovation Zone #packaging #packaginginnovation #sustainability

Introducing a collab of #wealthfromwaste plant-leather and add a RFiD THREADS® digital passport that can be slipped inside the product during manufacturing. Think handbags and accessories that are vegan plastic free plus the #dpp for authenticity and circularity. Global Circular Network digital product passport combined with STSCs plant leather that is an eco-friendly alternative to animal-based leather. This biodegradable-leather is a “lignocellulosic biomass” made from agricultural residues such as sawdust, rice straw, wheat straw, dried leaves, or any other plant. It is a patented technology and processes for producing a plastic-free, biodegradable, and recyclable bio-leather. Collectively offer a waste-to-wealth model, circular economy, and zero-waste processes along with the Certified information. Sellers can easily scan the product to see its authenticity. Each time it is read with a UHF commercial RFID reader new data is added to show its repairability, durability, longevity. Customers can scan the corresponding QR Code to also see all details plus learn ‘what to do when the relationship is over” or requires repair or to put into their compost for full biodegradability.

The challenge for disposable hygiene manufacturers is high: how to meet consumers’ demand for more sustainable products? As Euromonitor International shows, consumers’ commitment extends to actions such as minimizing plastic use and opting for recyclable or compostable packaging. So, it’s time for manufacturers to go greener on raw materials, also when it comes to packaging. Explore our green alternatives for packaging: from paper to 100% green polymers, our stacking and bagging solutions can support you on the way to sustainability. https://lnkd.in/d5k9ra4x #GDMSpA #Packaging #Sustainability

It can be very tempting to believe that factual explanation (“education”) will help people make more sustainable choices. Unfortunately most evidence indicates that this is a niche strategy. Behavioural science shows us that companies who make it easy for people to make the best choice, who shape the choice moment, and frame it well in the context of social cohesion with an upbeat tone are most successful in helping the largest number of people choose well. That can require collaboration with many or all the actors in a supply chain. Or expert advice on the trade off between material weight and material complexity. WRAP’s voluntary agreements like the The UK Plastics Pact and a dozen similar ones across the world can share know-how and bring everyone together in a strictly pre-competitive context for the best outcomes. The good news is that citizens across the world are willing, but expect stores and brands to lead with the best informed choices. Opportunities abound for circular innovation. Our teams are here to help. #IFplastics23 #behaviourchange #circulareconomy Ian Welsh Harriet Lamb Catherine David David Rogers

Also, a significant portion of this undegradable synthetic polymer is being used just once & then discarded. Thus, various F&B 🍽️🥤 brands strive for eco-friendly practices not only to reduce their carbon footprint but also to increase brand loyalty amongst eco-conscious consumers by leaning towards different types of recyclable and edible packaging solutions. 🌍📦 We are currently building an extensive knowledge base around the intricate details on this development which you'll not want to miss.

And that’s a wrap! Thank you RECOUP for inviting us to take part in the ‘Getting it Done’ panel discussion. It’s a conference I always look forward to as it offers one of the best opportunities to hear the most up-to-date information, challenges and perspectives on sustainability in our industry. It was really inspiring to hear about so many different success stories helping to create a circular economy for plastics: from local, council-led projects to prevent litter and waste, to brand new, state-of-the-art recycling facilities opening their doors. For us, the chance to promote our CleanFlake technology (designed to enable PET and coloured HDPE recycling) is always welcome, and I hope brand owners continue to adopt these innovations when designing/redesigning their packaging. Sometimes simple changes and bold decision making is all that’s needed to make a difference. Fantastic also to see so much interest in our Avery Dennison Smartrac RFID/NFC technology this time around, with data and smart packaging being highlighted as critical to the success of deposit return schemes, refill/reuse, as well as consumer engagement and education. #recoupconf23 #averydennion #labels #sustainability #sustainablepackaging #circulareconomy #Cleanflake #PETrecycling #washoffadhesives #RFID #NFC #intelligentlabels #Smartrac
