Topic 1: Trends in Sustainable Packaging in SE

GlobalData has identified the top themes influencing the packaging industry as: the impact of the market, the environment and technology. These themes can be further categorised under several trends that need to be understood in order to weigh the need for sustainability with the other competing demands on the producer. These trends include: shrinkflation, winning-at-shelf, regulations for environmental change, material evolution and tech enablers for smart supply chains.

This presentation will take a closer look at the trends within these themes in order to identify the outlook and appetite for sustainability in packaging in SE Asia.
