Study Provides Flexible Packaging Market Assessment Respondents to the 2019 Flexible Packaging Market Assessment, a new report from PMMI Business Intel- ligence, said that although most have not used nano- technology, 83 percent of respondents have heard of it, and 32 percent of manufacturers are interested in learning more about it and its benefits. Nanotechnology, the study and use of structures be- tween 1 nanometer (nm) and 100 nanometers in size, can potentially be used to increase the shelf life of foods,minimize spoilage, repair tears in packaging, and alert the consumer about the safety of product. Food packaging and monitoring are a major focus of food industry related nanotechnology research right now. While nanotechnologies remain a distant prospect to influence food packaging materials or equipment, several respondents say nanotechnology has huge po- tential, even though it is still some years out and is most likely being used in lab applications rather than commercially. Some respondents claim that there may be slight hesitation in introducing this to the market because it will make consumers question the quality of freshness of products. Growth Of Pouches Another more certain flexible packaging development will be the growth of pouch use in the coming years. Standup pouch use will continue to grow, and new emerging processing technologies such as HPP (High Pressure Processing) will open new categories for flex- ible packaging.These growth areas will create opportu- nities for small to mid-sized companies to tap into the market and compete with legacy brands on the shelf. AICC, The Independent Packaging Association, brought 12 packaging professionals together to tour Pacific Southwest Container and attend back-to-back seminars held June 4-5 and June 6-7 in Modesto, Cali- fornia. Both seminars were led by Dr. Scott Ellis, Ed.D., Principal,WorkingWell LLC. These two Seminars — Production Leadership: Next Level Supervision of People & Process and Produc- tion Measurement: Benchmarking & Buy-in — were about engaging and equipping employees.The course- work focused on converting the willing to the willing and capable.Attendees, with the support of Ellis, also strategized about converting the unwilling and capa- ble, like change resistant long-term employees, back to engaged employees.
