499: The latest innovations in sustainable packaging
Packaging has a huge role to play in making the global food system more sustainable. The materials we use to transport, store and market our food are a key part of the conversation when it comes to increasing sustainability in the sector. There is a demand for more responsible food packaging solutions across the value chain as pressure mounts from both regulators and consumers. But, the move towards more sustainable packaging is not always an easy, or straight forward, one. In this episode of the Food Matters Live Podcast, recorded live at our Sustainable Food Forum held in London in September 2023, we look at some of the innovations helping the industry on that journey. Our panel discusses how the industry is collaborating to create a sustainable packaging system, new eco-friendly materials and innovative packaging technologies, and the relationship between sustainable food packaging and food formulation. Guests: Paul Collins, Vice President Sustainabilty, Huhtamäki Hoa Doan, Head of Impact, Notpla Paloma Lopez, Co-Founder and CEO, Future Fit Foods
