Industry Report Store Blogs: Future of Packaging: Flexible or Ecological?

Interpack, the processing and packaging trade fair is taking place in Düsseldorf, Germany from 8-14^th May 2014, where 2,700 exhibitors from more than 60 countries will present their latest ideas, innovative concepts and technological visions for the future of packaging.

Bosch's complete solutions for processing, primary and secondary packaging are available as modular lines as well as seamless systems and fulfill numerous packaging needs," says Martin Tanner, director business development and marketing, product division confectionery and food, Bosch Packaging Technology.

Flexible packaging is a huge trend for the future of the packaging industry, but it faces opposition from ecologically sustainable packaging innovations. Interpack has its own forum for special themes for the future called Innovationparc Packaging where exhibitors meet to discuss creative and visionary ideas based on ecological, social and economic themes. This year’s theme is SAVE FOOD, with an aim to develop sustainable packaging concepts with the specific goal of reducing food loss around the globe. Stakeholders in the packaging and food industry will be pitching ideas about how new packaging designs and methods could reduce some of the 1.3 billion tons of food waste every year. This year’s theme is a particular reflection on the industry trend towards more sustainable and ecological packaging. They are recognising the growing consumer trend for reducing ecological impact on the world, and the packaging industry absolutely must reflect this trend in their designs for the future or risk losing out to competitors.
