This presentation looks at the stages of package testing. With the critical roll-out of vaccines, it is inevitable that society will look for newer, better and more efficient ways to distribute doses. That requires new package designs. New designs require initial package validation (Helium), ongoing package testing during stability (requires non-destructive testing) and then production. Different technologies and solutions are targeted for specific stages of pharmaceuticals development. This presentation outlines container closure integrity solutions based on this approach.
E-commerce continues to grow rapidly. While it provides a safe and convenient option for businesses and consumers, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, evolving needs are driving the need for massive innovation to meet new challenges. One area where this is occurring is cold chain packaging, and the need for sustainable insulation, among other things, for perishable e-commerce shipments. This presentation examines e-commerce and the cold chain packaging landscape and options, and more.
In this webinar, learn about the new opportunities for reusable packaging growth and what that means for manufacturers, distributors, and retailers. Hear from Loop General Manager Clem Schmid about how reusable packaging can shift from a niche product to mainstream and lessons learned in scaling to date.
The world is demanding more of packaging: it needs to be sustainable, cost-effective and developed faster than ever. But poor specification data management is holding packaging teams and their companies back. By digitizing your specifications, you can unleash the power of data and analytics to inform packaging design and distribution—and move faster than ever. In this webinar, you’ll learn how leading companies are using specification management best practices to:
Brian Johnston takes a deeper dive into a number of key topics from his current book “Packaging Notes from the Design Desk.”
Questions about how to address sustainability continue to arise more frequently for brands, particularly when it comes to finding the most sustainable packaging solutions. But the answers are not often clear cut or "one size fits all," as they're impacted by localized concerns such as consumer behavior, government regulations, and retailer guidelines. Sustainability challenges are global in nature, and thereby require brands to apply global knowledge and expertise as a method of creating localized solutions.
The Recycling Partnership, the nation’s leading nonprofit solving for circularity, provides an introduction to the circular economy in the US for packaging and understand how companies, communities, and governments are critical action agents to achieve this transition. Learn about their work with the packaging value chain as they collaborate, make grants, and innovate to provide solutions for companies at all stages of their sustainability journeys. This presentation includes real-world examples of on-the-ground action bringing the Pathway to Circularity to life through material coalitions, a free strategy development tool called Plastic IQ, and discover why the role as a packaging professional is crucial to embedding the principles of a circular economy into your work and company.
The future of packaging is rapidly changing, and packaging professionals must stay ahead of the curve. This webinar will provide valuable insights into the opportunities and challenges shaping packaging over the next decade. With this knowledge, you will have the tools and information to plan for the future and make the most of the upcoming changes.
This webinar addresses four topics involved in studying the effects of time, temperature and vibration on closure torque integrity: operation and requirements of performance testing facilities, standard procedures and demonstrated best practices, test results from select plastic and glass bottle/closure assemblies and present a case study in the development of an industry standard glass 4L bottle and copolymer closure assembly.
