Mondi will use its expertise in paper-based and flexible plastic packaging to enhance its product design and thereby achieve 100% reusable, recyclable or compostable plastic packaging by 2025. Through the Global Commitment, Mondi has said it will boost the use of recycled content in its products to ensure a minimum of 25% of post-consumer waste is incorporated across all its plastic packaging by 2025. Peter Oswald, CEO, Mondi said: “We are all well aware of the challenge facing our oceans and landfills as a result of poor waste management.

One of the main problems of high delivery charges and too big packaging is, that, although it is mainly calculated by the weight of the product, there is always a lot of wasted “air” in the package. The Slimbox Machine creates a perfectly sized package for whatever to send. Users can connect to the machine via a free app, measure their product, and send the dimensions of the product directly to the machine. It can also cut out holders for products like bottles or use remaining cardboard pieces as an extra filling for fragile goods.

The PET jars from RPC PET Power ideally demonstrate the appropriateness of plastic for ice cream packaging. Their light weight and unbreakability ensure safe and easy handling while their excellent clarity effectively showcases the delicious ice creams. The practical design of the jars now offers the potential for them to be reused for many different purposes, further increasing their appeal among consumers.

The LDS 2cc ECOM dispensing pump has patented technology, which meets ISTA-6 e-commerce packaging specifications. Rieke’s highly qualified engineers have incorporated a range of innovative features, including a plug seal feature to ensure no leakage, enabling it to withstand the challenges of frequent handling and movement during packing, transportation and delivery. The LDS 2cc ECOM also targets to reduce merchandise damage during shipping, which would provide a savings to the e-commerce market channel.
