PACK EXPO Sustainability breakfast

Join us on Tuesday, October 20th from 7:30 am-9:00 am in Room W-194A at McCormick Place.

Start your morning with the In-Mold Decorating Association and a panel of industry professionals to talk about the legislative landscape and what brands, molders and printers need to think about as the regulatory environment focuses in on plastics recycling.

  • How should companies prepare for a US (and global) landscape in which regulations and targets are shifting?
  • What are brands prioritizing when developing packaging programs?
  • How can label printers and molders partner with brands to innovate in packaging while still complying with recommendations for sustainability and recyclability?
  • Where does in-mold labeling fit in?
