Europe’s biggest trade show for Natural and Organic products will take place on April 3rd and 4th (2022), and GEPACK will be showcasing the eco-friendly PET packaging solutions that are aligned with the highest sustainability expectations. The rising sustainability awareness has been contributing to remarkable changes in retail market over the past years. The customer has now a more holistic understanding of the interaction chains between its private consumption and the collateral effects on both local sphere and global environment. GEPACK’s strategic vision has been shaped by a strong commitment to positively impact people, our community, and the society at large. The long-term investment in shifting our energy consumption towards solar geothermic energy as made us an international case study in green energy production applied to the polymer industry, as nowadays we rely on 2.2GW/year to provide us clean energy.
As customer’s exposure to the environmental predicament increases, more expressive will become the demands towards a more safe and eco-friendly approach. Particularly regarding product categories that are in direct contact with our bodies and our living spaces, such as food, hygiene and cleaning products that are intrinsically part of our daily life.
Natural and Organic products fair is a hub for different stakeholders and experts that actively contribute to further promote natural products and knowledge for sustainability. The same values and practices have always been at the core of GEPACK’s commitment to sustainability for over 20years and our customer base is very supportive of our efforts. From the start, our strategic vision has been to exclusively manufacture PET packaging, recognizing the tremendous potential of this versatile polymer. GEPACK has specialized in creating a true alternative to glass, and therefore contributing to manufacture and developing creative packaging solutions that require a fraction of the energy applied to glass production. The merits attributed to PET packaging go beyond its lower environmental footprint when compared to other non-polymer alternatives, as PET packaging solutions are 100% recyclable and currently the most recycled polymer-based material in the world. Recycled PET can be re-introduced in the production chain and be used to manufacture packaging again, avoiding unnecessary waste, which is something more and more desirable within our client roster.
Our commitment to innovate and create smart packaging led us to specialize in developing exclusive custom-made packaging solutions, that would include a technical drawing within 24hours, and once approved the final mold would be complete within 3 to 4 weeks. Innovative projects that we develop with our valued customers result in improved reusable packaging concepts, such as the implementation of modern and efficient PET water jugs that can be refilled at a local supermarket. This example illustrates what GEPACK proudly hopes to share at the Natural and Organic fair, while connecting to like-minded food and cosmetic producers that are looking for affordable and food contact safe packaging with barrier properties.
Our team is looking forward to meeting you at our GEPACK stand to further disseminate not only the advantages of PET packaging, but particularly how it can be the smart packaging option for your product line.
