Is beneficial, safe & healthy for individuals and communities throughout its life cycle; . Meets market criteria for both performance and cost; . Is sourced, manufactured, transported, and recycled using renewable energy; . Optimizes the use of renewable or recycled source materials; .

THE STATE OF THE FOLDING CARTON & CORRUGATED MARKETS FIVE PACKAGING AND DESIGN TRENDS FOR 2020 TODAY’S SPONSOR: POWERED BY: WELCOME Welcome to this special publication for attendees of the 2020 PRINTING United Digital Experience. In June, PRINTING United announced the decision to transition from an in-person event in Atlanta, Ga. to a comprehensive digital platform. The PRINTING United Digital Ex- perience, taking place Oct. 26 – Nov. 12, o ers attendees three weeks of live, guided programming, educational sessions, and panel discussions with the experts; along with access to a complete online exhibitor showcase featuring information about the newest industry technology, case studies, whitepapers, the chance to speak with exhibitor repre- sentatives, and more. Today is Day Eight of this 14-day event. Focused on the package printing market — spe- cifi cally the folding carton and corrugated segments — attendees have a packed sched- ule of content and product demos (see the detailed agenda on page 4). According to the Digital Printing for Folding Carton Converting study by PRINTING United Alliance and Keypoint Intelligence, the folding carton segment represents about $18 billion in annual print value in the U.S. and Canada. The Fibre Box Association reports that the U.S. corrugated packaging market represents about $35.2 billion in annual print value. For both of these markets, however, it is estimated that 99% of the products are printed via analog technologies. There is a signifi cant amount of opportunity for digital printing going forward.

Each year, we ask questions about various aspects of general packaging sustainability. Some questions are the same every year to give us a historical picture of where the industry is—and where it is shifting. But each year we also add new questions around the hot topics du jour. This year, we focused on plastic packaging sustainability because it has captured so much attention around the world from consumers, organizations and governments today. In this detailed report, we’ll first provide some context by talking about the current climate of plastic packaging.

  • Circularity for Plastic Packaging
    Sustainable Packaging Systems Circularity design guide for plastic packaging Introduction Contents Packaging protects and preserves food and consumer goods products and gives a platform to inform the consumer about the product. Specifically, plastic packaging provides product durability, flexibility in design, hygiene and safety properties and can extend shelf life. However, following rising public concern about the rise in plastic waste, inconsistencies with collection and recycling facilities in the UK, and the increase of marine pollution, consumers are asking retailers and brands to minimise use and dependency on plastic. Whether you’re a senior technologist on a mission, an operations manager responding to client demands or a buyer with targets, this IGD guide will: • Talk you through the key sustainable design principles • Give you a 5 step design approach • Provide supporting insights and action points 2 SUSTAINABLE SUSTAINABLE 3 PACKAGING PACKAGING SYSTEMS SYSTEMS Understanding circularity Moving to a circular economy and the waste hierarchy Resources The plastics life cycle currently follows a predominantly The Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s Circular Economy Butterfly linear model that follows the path of raw material extraction, Diagram gives a useful structure to adopt circularity within Minimise Manufacture manufacture, product design and moulding, product use and sustainable design focused on: then disposal.
