In this interview, Flexible Packaging discusses emerging issues around food waste and packaging with Claire Koelsch Sand, owner and CEO at Packaging Technology and Research. Topics include food waste packaging trends, film materials and how the circular economy tidal wave intersects with flexible packaging’s mission of extending shelf-life.
As more consumer demands and regulations are placed on consumer packaged goods companies (CPG), food packaging has to extend shelf-life, present new consumer experiences and reduce food waste while at a very low price per unit.
