Esko Plans Virtual Series On Packaging Sustainability Esko has announced a new program of virtual events focusing on a megatrend in the packaging industry — environmental sustainability. “We all know that amidst political volatility and economic uncertainty, brands and their packag- ing suppliers are also facing increasing pressure to demonstrate their environmental sustainability credentials,” said Jan De Roeck, Esko Director of Marketing, Industry Relations & Strategy. “As a re- sult of global public concern, and depending on the market a business operates in, having sustainable operations has rapidly evolved from being a ‘nice to do’ strategy to a ‘must do’ critical demand. “These drivers of change — responding to con- sumer demands, and accelerating their own sus- tainability commitments — require the industry to deliver a wholesale shift in packaging design, de- velopment, and production.” Sustaining Growth The first event, on October 18, will examine sustain- able packaging trends expected in the coming decade. The series comprises the following events: October 18, 4pm CET/10am ET: Sustainable Pack- aging Market Trends to 2032 . Analyze the major drivers and trends anticipated to impact the devel- opment of sustainable packaging through 2032. October 19, 4pm CET/10am ET: Understanding the Green Deal – A New Best Practice to Achieve your Sustainability Goals .
