Packaging Reimagined: From Experiential Drinking to Integrated Household Products


Recycling is not enough. We must tackle plastic pollution by reimagining packaging and reinventing products. Companies must reduce the use of plastic in design while ensuring customers get the same or superior product benefits and experience. Here is how customisation in packaged drinks became the inspiration for truly sustainable packaging solutions.

Partnerships as Enabler to Drive Sustainable Innovation


In such a competitive-oriented worldwide reality we are called to reverse course of individualism and to embrace a common vision:

  • Identify new possibilities through actual challenges taking advantage of cooperation to encourage brand progress and sustainable innovations.
  • Circular economy as a multi functional and cross industries eco system. Classic customer-supplier relationship does not seam to be efficient anymore and new models with multiple companies involved via consortiums is required for closing the loop of the full circular economy.
  • Case studies of successful launches involving multiple partners in holistic product innovation propositions.

Rethinking Strategies in a Changing Packaging Sustainability Landscape

As public and regulatory pressures to cut back on packaging waste mount, many companies are rethinking their sustainability strategies to search for cleaner material alternatives that are easy to dispose of or recycle. Although plastic (packaging) waste is central to implementing these strategies, other waste categories, including paper, are also part of them. Additionally, the race to ‘net zero’ emissions has accelerated; bringing new dilemmas for brand owners and packaging producers. All of this is driving companies across the supply chain to look for new innovative solutions and rethink their strategies.

The Path to New Packaging Steel

Carbon reduced or even carbon free packaging materials are needed to limit climate change impact created from packaging. Packaging Steel, which has no imbedded carbon, will focus therefore on carbon reduction in steel making. We aim to develop a carbon neutral steel making process which will be achieved by a change from carbon-based to hydrogen based steel making. The presentation will provide a road-map of a 30% carbon-reduction within the next 10 years and with the ultimate goal of carbon neutral steel making in 2050.

Beside hydrogen-based steel making, circularity is the second pillar to reduce carbon emissions through an increase in recycled content in the coming years. The timeframe here is much nearer and this is already increasing. This requires, however, a further increase of our already successful material stewardship to make sure all packaging steel stays in the recycling loop and is reused over and over again, to make steel a permanent packaging material.

Labelling a New Category, Creative but Confusing!

  • Non-alcoholic spirits are accepted by all major players but it lacks a common definition and is thoroughly confusing for consumers.
  • Packaging one of the most powerful tools for brand but is labelling fair and does it guide or deceive?
  • The Gnista approach and belief in consumer above brand
  • Going forward, what to expect for years to come?

Deconstructing the Stories Behind Packaging: The Example of Eco-Flat Wine Bottles

To many, packaging is an afterthought - it's just the container holding the thing they really want. So how do we get people excited about packaging and its potential to be the force for positive change that we in the industry know it can be? The answer is simple and already successfully used in CPG - making an emotional connection through storytelling. In this case study session, Packamama, the multi award-winning start-up that offers packaging protecting Mother Earth, unpacks how they have managed to get the world talking about their eco-flat format by creating a compelling story about the wine industry's need for a better bottle.

Sustainability in the Beauty Industry - What We Are Doing and What You Can Do

Evolve Beauty’s mission has always been to make products that are healthier, greener and kinder to us and the planet and that help to push the boundaries of what is possible to help the beauty industry sustainably evolve. We want to go beyond sustainability to become a regenerative business, which gives back more to the environment than we take out. From the ingredients we source, the packaging we use, the waste that we create and our own wonderful team, we understand that what we do has an impact: both positive and negative.

We take the packaging of our products very seriously, 63% of our packaging contains some recycled content, up from 60% in 2020 and last year following our dump the pump campaign we saved over 2000 plastic pumps from landfill plus 100% of our glass packaging, plastic bottles and lids and paper cartons are recyclable.

To stay true to our ethos and be completely transparent, we publish an annual Impact Report which details our impact across 5 major areas: Carbon, Waste, Biodiversity, Clean Chemistry and Kind to All. With this information and knowledge we can guide others to also make steps to becoming more sustainable.

For this talk I will be focusing on the packaging aspect of our journey, how we got to where we are and the decisions we made along the way.

The Case of Reusing

 

  • For some experts the way the industry is changing materials to replace plastics are only moving the problem to many more sources
  • On the other hand changing patterns in consumers towards the multiple use of a container could create a solution based of quality
  • Cases and trends
