The past year has seen both turmoil and opportunity in the arena of paper-based food packaging and serviceware.
The anti-plastic sentiment that first took hold in Europe has gained considerable momentum in the U.S. While this presents an opportunity for paper-based food packaging, so also has the scramble to legislate against the oil and grease resistant coatings (so-called PFASs) used on paper as well as many other goods caused concern amongst paper- and fiber-based packaging manufacturers.
Join us at Focal Point 2019 to work through these challenges and opportunities as well as hear brand perspectives.
- Learn about new and innovative fluorine-free barrier coatings technologies intended to replace PFAs.
- Hear about the successes and challenges in implementing the collection and recovery of fiber from poly-coated beverage containers, and aseptic and gable top cartons.
- Gain insights and perspectives on Kwik Trip's vertical integration model.
- Understand the approaches McDonald's are taking to reduce their packaging and serviceware burden.
