FRESH-CUT RESEARCH
As Nielsen estimates 73% of global
millennials are willing to pay extra
for sustainable offerings, there are
benefits to proactively implementing
sustainable packaging solutions.
Flexible pouches not only reduce
the amount of materials used when
compared to rigid clam shell containers
but, with the introduction of monomaterial
films and closures, can now
be created to be fully recyclable or
sustainable. This, combined with
programs such as How2Recycle,
educate and enable consumers to select
sustainable packaging and dispose of it
in an environmentally conscious way.
Simultaneously, converters are
mak ing
s t r ides
towards more
sustainable facilities and operations.
An excellent example is Sev-Rend
High Performing Packaging, an
innovative packaging manufacturer
based in Collinsville, Illinois, that
implemented a water-based production
process that not only creates highquality,
custom graphics but also
emits no volatile organic compounds,
CUTTING EDGE
commonly known as VOCs. This helps
reduce the organization's carbon
footprint and allows them to support
brands working to meet their own
sustainability goals.
Moving toward a flexible future
As research from Smithers Pira
EnhancedAd.qxp_Layout 1 2/15/19 3:03 PM Page 1
predicts total sales for flexible
packaging worldwide to reach $228
billion in 2019 and grow at an annual
average rate of 3.3% through 2024,
produce processors and retailers must
take advantage of flexible packaging
formats and provide greater value to
consumers. By meeting consumers
wants and needs now, produce brands
are securing their place in physical and
online shopping carts in the future.
