What are the current trends in beer and beverage packaging? What will be next? Further, who drives the marked changes and customer demand? These are some of the questions, that will be discussed on the 2nd VLB Packaging Conference (VPC), taking place from August 30 to September 1, 2022, online at our VLB Virtual Campus – just 2 weeks before the drinktec (12 to 16 September in Munich). Thus, brand owners, brewers and suppliers are invited to get in touch virtually at our conference before meeting face-to-face at the trade fair in Munich.
In three live sessions, following topics will be presented and discussed:
- Session 1: Sustainable packaging solutions for beverages / Returnable systems
- Session 2: Close loop application for packaging materials (rPET, caps, foils etc.)
- Session 3: Efficiency for filling beer and beverages (cans, vegan glue, KPIs etc.)
The (fee-based) live program runs from Tuesday, August 30, until Thursday, September 1. The access to the event platform and to all its content is available from Monday, August 29, 2022, 14:00 (CEST) until Monday, September 5, 2022, 24:00 (CEST).
The event is organized by VLB Berlin and sponsored by Krones and DS Smith.
