Sustainable Packaging Becoming Essential With the majority of global consumers already recy- cling, demand for environmentally-friendly packaging will increase further in response to heightened public- ity around plastics ending up in the ocean, according to GlobalData, a leading data and analytics company. According to GlobalData’s third-quarter 2016 global consumer survey, 65 percent of consumers globally always or mostly recycle product packaging and 53 percent always or mostly avoid excessively packaged grocery products. “Consumers are highly sensitive to the environmen- tal implications of packaging formats,” said Peter Hays, Consumer Analyst at GlobalData.“While the im- plications of product formulation have long been a focus of consumers, it is becoming clear that the packaging waste produced by everyday purchases also has a detrimental effect on the environment.” Exhibit Sales Now Open For ICE USA 2019 ICE USA, the International Converting Exhibition, has opened exhibit space sales for the next show scheduled for April 9-11, 2019 in Louisville, Kentucky.
