The call for environmentally friendly, sustainable and safe packaging is becoming ever louder from markets, consumers and policymakers. The packaging industry began rethinking matters long before the Fridays for Future movement and numerous innovations have now reached market maturity. Packaging and speciality papers from Sappi, from the latest generation of barrier papers, are an important solution on our journey towards the future. They not only meet all industry requirements, but are also fully recyclable.

When, and at what stages of development, the packaging will also be made from 100% renewable materials, will be discussed on Sappi’s Blue Couch. Thomas Kratochwill, Vice President Sales & Marketing Packaging and Speciality Papers, and Director of Innovation Bernardo Semadeni will discuss an exciting range of subjects, from commitment to sustainable products and processes, to the strategic and technological direction of the company. The focus of the latest episode, which will be broadcast at 10 a.m. (CET) on 2 December, is on the fusion of sales and innovation as the key to success.
