Foundation For Packaging Education Hosts Fundraiser The Foundation for Packaging Education held its inaugural fundraising event November 8-10 at The Sanctuary resort on Kiawah Island, South Carolina. Nearly 80 attendees came together to celebrate and support industry education for those already employed in the paper-based converting industries. The event began with an evening reception and the following morning golfers played the Osprey Point course on Kiawah while others went on an excursion of nearby Charleston, South Carolina. A reception and dinner capped off the day with Foundation for Packaging Education Chairman Jay Carman making remarks. He reminded everyone of the mission of the Foun- dation, to ensure the longevity and ongoing devel- opment of education and training programs for those already working in the industry. Education and training are vital to employee retention and employee satisfaction. The funds raised brought the raised and pledged amount of the Foundation to nearly $3 million.

Self-Heating Food Packaging Market Grows The self-heating food packaging market is poised to grow by $1.51 billion from 2021 to 2026 at a Compound Annual Growth Rate of 4.6 percent during the forecast period, according to a report published in October by Technavio. The primary drivers of the segment’s growth are affordable pric- es and prompt delivery. The report provides a detailed analysis of emerg- ing market trends, regional outlook, competitive landscape, and a comprehensive analysis of differ- ent market segments. During the projected period, the offline segment’s market share increase of self-heating food packag- ing would be significant. Supermarkets and hyper- markets, retail outlets, and wholesalers make up the offline distribution route. In 2021, the offline distribution channel segment comprised a majority in this market. During the forecast period, APAC will account for 35 percent of market growth; the self-heating food packaging market in the region is dominated by China, Japan, and India. This region’s market will expand more quickly than those in other areas.
