Earth Day is one of our favorite days of the year here at PakTech. You probably already know why, but we’ll always say it loud and proud: We care about the environment. So much so, in fact, that everything we do – every product we design – is built with sustainability at the forefront of the process.

PakTech has announced its launch in Australia. At PakTech, we have always been driven by a vision of sustainability and innovation.

At PakTech, we design each and every one of our applicators to meet the needs of the businesses that benefit from them. From our largest and most complex machines to our smallest and most convenient, every detail is set in place with our clients in mind. That’s why we’re so proud to introduce the latest in our line of top-quality machines, the CCA MicroPak.

At PakTech, sustainability is not just a buzzword but is at the heart of everything we do. From sourcing eco-friendly material to the minimal but mighty design, we take serious steps to make sure our responsibility to the environment guides every business decision. And we are proud to say that this has been the core of our business since the very beginning, not just as a response to changing consumer expectations. We have achieved a lot since our beginnings in 1993 and we are proud to share our sustainability story with you.

With the rising awareness of the impact that our consumption patterns have on the environment, consumers are increasingly prioritising sustainable habits and purchasing decisions. As responsible packaging remains integral to consumer choice, Europe’s FMCG businesses and packaging suppliers must keep abreast of constantly evolving packaging sustainability expectations. Here, PakTech examines four key sustainability trends to further help businesses to make the most environmentally responsible choices when it comes to packaging and overall business operations.

You’ve probably found it easy to simply remove from the cans as it is to pop one of our handles on an empty can when you pack up from a picnic.

With the increasing prominence of online shopping, consumers have begun to realize something that businesses have known for a long time: a lot of packaging is wasted.

Today, governments, businesses and consumers look for ways to optimise waste management. Among different solutions, the waste hierarchy concept has become an essential tool to determine priorities for action to reduce and manage waste sustainably. Yet, this concept remains unknown to many.
