Functional Fiber-Based Materials & Packaging 2024
As global industries shift away from fossil-based plastics, the search for functional and sustainable alternatives has never been more critical.
PRAGUE, CZECH REPUBLIC, October 14, 2024 /EINPresswire / -- CMT's Functional Fiber-Based Materials & Packaging 2024 conference, taking place from October 21-23, 2024, in Prague, Czech Republic, is set to push the boundaries of innovation, showcasing cutting-edge solutions that will shape the future of sustainable packaging.
Industry professionals, innovators, and key stakeholders in the packaging sector will converge to explore, understand, and collaborate on the transformative potential of fiber-based packaging solutions. The conference is poised to address crucial questions facing the sector today: How can businesses adapt to evolving regulations? How can plastic-free alternatives be developed without sacrificing functionality and recyclability? What role will fiber-based packaging play in the fast-changing landscape?
With the EU's Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) and Single-Use Plastics Directive (SUPD) setting new standards for packaging sustainability, the pressure on manufacturers and brands to innovate is immense. The Functional Fiber-Based Materials & Packaging 2024 conference is designed to provide practical solutions, legislative updates, and technological advancements that will allow attendees to stay ahead of the regulatory curve and act towards greener packaging practices.
Key focused discussions include :
.Deep Dive into PPWR & SUPD: Get clarity on the latest updates to the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation and Single-Use Plastics Directive . Understand their implications, especially with the upcoming plastic tax and Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) mandates, and how these policies will shape the future of packaging.
.Navigating Legislative Impacts: Discover which packaging materials will thrive under the new regulations, and which will struggle to meet the evolving standards. Attendees will gain an edge in adapting their production strategies to emerging demands.
.Innovation in Fiber-Based Packaging: Explore opportunities for developing plastic-free packaging that retains high functionality. Learn about current technologies that offer solutions in barrier performance, recyclability, and material efficiency. Hear from leading experts on how companies can transition from rigid plastic formats to fiber-based alternatives .
.Conversion Technologies: Practical discussions on the conversion technologies that bridge the transition from high-barrier rigid plastics to sustainable fiber-based options. How can businesses utilize these innovations to stay competitive in a changing market?
