Smart nanocomposites based on PLA and ZnO push bioplastics closer to real-world performance, offering strength, thermal stability, and sustainability in one simple film.

Inventory management stands at the core of operational excellence in the polymer packaging industry.

Forward-thinking brands are discovering that embracing unconventional, quirky, and deliberately flawed designs creates profound resonance with younger consumers.

The UK’s Extended Producer Responsibility scheme reshapes packaging design and recycling. Businesses now face new rules, fees, and sustainability standards.

Bioplastics often carry a reputation for disrupting recycling systems, yet a recent European Bioplastics study presents a different perspective.

Researchers developed a biodegradable composite by integrating calcium carbonate (CC) into poly(1,8-octanediol-co-citrate) (POC).

Packaging design is undergoing a fundamental transformation as artificial intelligence reshapes not only our tools but also the creative process itself.

EVA is a copolymer that combines the flexibility of rubber with the processability of thermoplastics.

Researchers at ANTEC® 2025 showed that foamed multilayer blown films can achieve densities compatible with mechanical sorting systems while maintaining essential packaging performance.

Frequent out-of-stock (OOS) situations disrupt operations, leading to revenue losses, production delays, and customer dissatisfaction.
