Ineos Styrolution, in styrenics, and Pal Packaging, manufacturer and distributor of food packaging and foodservice products, announced recently to partner on styrenics based sustainable food contact applications. Pal Packaging now incorporates the new mechanically recycled Styrolution PS Eco, a 100% recycled polystyrene, in new food packaging solutions.
Pal Packaging is a division of Greece based Palamidis SA corporation. They are an innovative and reliable supplier of packers, processors and supermarkets across Europe. After successful trials with the new recycled material provided by Ineos Styrolution, the company was impressed with the ease of processing and the quality of the final product.
Konstantinos Roumpos, Quality and R&D manager at Palamidis comments, “Ineos Styrolution made it a seamless transition for us to offer our customers a sustainable packaging solution. We are eager to go ahead with sustainable packaging solutions starting with poultry and mushroom packaging.”
Louie Mackee, Standard Business Project specialist at Ineos Styrolution adds, “At Ineos Styrolution, we are excited working with Pal Packaging. The company is committed to providing high-quality products and is dedicated to new sustainable solutions. In fact, our two companies share the same vision in terms of sustainability and innovation.”
The impact, resilience, and growth of responsible packaging in a wide region are daily chronicled by Packaging South Asia.
A multi-channel B2B publication and digital platform such as Packaging South Asia is always aware of the prospect of new beginnings and renewal. Its 16-year-old print monthly, based in New Delhi, India has
demonstrated its commitment to progress and growth. The Indian and Asian packaging industries have shown resilience in the face of ongoing challenges over the past three years.
As we present our publishing plan for 2023, India’s real GDP growth for the financial year ending 31 March 2023 will reach 6.3%. Packaging industry growth has exceeded GDP growth even when allowing for inflation in the past three years.
The capacity for flexible film manufacturing in India increased by 33% over the past three years. With orders in place, we expect another 33% capacity addition from 2023 to 2025. Capacities in monocartons, corrugation, aseptic liquid packaging, and labels have grown similarly. The numbers are positive for most of the economies in the region – our platform increasingly reaches and influences these.
Even given the disruptions of supply chains, raw material prices, and the challenge of responsible and sustainable packaging, packaging in all its creative forms and purposes has significant headroom to grow in India and Asia. Our context and coverage engulf the entire packaging supply chain – from concept to shelf and further – to waste collection and recycling. We target brand owners, product managers, raw material suppliers, packaging designers and converters, and recyclers.
