Sustainable packaging at Packaging Innovations 2020

Sustainable packaging was the hot topic at Packaging Innovations 2020. Cambrian Packaging joined over 300 of the industry’s leading suppliers at the event last week at the Birmingham NEC and showcased Ecycle™, its sustainable packaging range of recycled plastic bottles and jerry cans. Innovative ways to lower packaging’s carbon impact formed the lead topic, diving deep into sustainable packaging – with an emphasis on the fact that plastic is not the source of the threat to the planet. Kevin Vyse, Head of Technology at Rapid Action Packaging UK and ex Circular Economy Expert at M&S, said: “We are acting quickly, but we are not looking at the facts. It is carbon that is killing the planet, not packaging. As we create new solutions to replace plastic, we are actually releasing more carbon into the atmosphere than ever before. “The reason we are in such as mess is that we are reacting to opinion which is leading us down the wrong paths. We have to keep looking for new ways of thinking and challenging the ways we do things currently to make sure they are right.” Cambrian’s approach to sustainable packaging At Cambrian Packaging, we couldn’t agree more. That’s why we developed Ecycle™, which is sustainable packaging made from 90% recycled plastic and in turn, fully recyclable. Lloyd Harvey, Sales Executive at Cambrian Packaging, said: “Ecycle™ is a truly innovative material and offers brands the opportunity to carry a special message to consumers.” For more information about sustainable packaging options, call our sales team on 01686 611 360.
