Sustainable packaging - what is it and how can you navigate to using it?

Food and drink businesses face unique packaging challenges, like preserving product freshness and safety while minimising waste and carbon footprint. 

In this webinar, Josh Pitman, Priory Direct, will show how sustainable packaging can align with these priorities by using materials that are recyclable, efficient, and safe for the environment. 

Learn strategies to reduce excess packaging, avoid shipped "air," and embrace materials suited to the circular economy.

Sustainable packaging isn't a one-size-fits-all solution but a step-by-step process. Food and drink businesses can start small, focusing on materials, reusability, and waste reduction to improve their environmental impact.
