Beverages

Disposable or reusable? This is the existential question when it comes to sustainable beverage packaging. Bottling companies differentiate their beverages with a wide range of containers in various materials and shapes.

Disposable or reusable continues to be the sixty-four-thousand-dollar question when beverage manufacturers are deciding on their packaging strategy. Single-use plastic containers as well as drink cartons and cans are criticised for a lack of sustainability but are continuing to evolve thanks to innovative material approaches, recycling options, and logistical improvements. As the most traditional type of container whose reusability is backed by significant expertise, glass continues to capture the biggest share of the market.

The beverage market is saturated. In all market segments, therefore, mixed drinks and packaging innovations are more in demand than ever. Consequently, the exhibitors at FACHPACK show how today’s packaging can reflect key concepts like intrinsic value, health, sustainability and individuality. The design and technologies behind cans or bottle labels also play a crucial role in the logistical processes of the entire supply chain. The exhibitors at FACHPACK will present their latest approaches for minimizing CO2 consumption and effectively implementing the current EU regulations on reducing plastics from 2025.
