Adhesives and Sustainable Packaging Webinar - On-Demand
On Demand Webinars
Sustainability is an ever-increasing demand in many areas of the adhesive industry. This webinar will explore sustainability’s impacts on and future needs for adhesives used in packaging, particularly pressure-sensitive adhesives, from tapes for sealing and securing products and packaging to labels for branding, identification, and shipping. Covering developments in both adhesive technologies and in tape and label construction, we will review market opportunities, trends, and the technology developments needed to address them and propel the industry toward new sustainable solutions.
Learning Objectives:
- Understanding the current state of recyclability and sustainability in pressure-sensitive adhesives for packaging
- Challenges in advancing the technology
- Goals and directions for the future – What could be possible? What are the targets?
- Examples of best practices today
Agenda:
- Overview of where tapes and labels are used in packaging today
- What makes today’s technology not sustaiable (which elements are better than others)
- What is the ideal goal, and what are the challenges to get there?
- Examples of steps so far and their results
