Webinar on product inspection for contract packers

Mettler-Toledo Product Inspection is hosting a free online seminar for co-packers on Wednesday 6 October 2021 at 1230 and 1830 hrs (IST).

Co-hosted with BRCGS, featuring John Figgins, Senior Technical manager from the BRCGS; Ian Robertshaw, Global Key Account manager, and Adam Green, Market manager both from Mettler-Toledo Product Inspection.

The seminar explores product inspection technology and its importance in improving food safety and supply chain compliance for co-packers.

It will cover record-keeping and audits; developing the right culture and mindset for machine maintenance and testing standards; automation of quality checks; and flexibility and ease of use of product inspection technology such as metal detection, X-ray inspection, and checkweighing.

This interactive seminar will also include a Q&A to address specific queries you may have in respect of product inspection for co-packers.

Webinar on physical contamination

‘6 Steps to preventing physical contamination’ is an online seminar co-hosted by experts from BRCGS and Mettler-Toledo Product Inspection on Thursday, 7 October 2021 at 1230 and 1830 hrs (IST).

The topics to be explored include the latest BRCGS Foreign Body Detection Best Practice Guidelines; tips and tricks to help you pass your next food safety audit; how physical contamination occurs and steps you can take to prevent it from reaching consumers; practical guidance on using metal detection and X-ray inspection systems effectively; digitalization trends in food production; and insights from food manufacturers who have installed both technologies on their production lines.

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.

In an admittedly fragmented and textured terrain, this is the right time to plan your participation and marketing support communication – in our impactful and highly targeted business platform.
