In the dynamic world of retail, where decisions shape customer experiences, there's a strategy that outshines the rest: multipacking. It's not just a cost-saving maneuver; it's a game-changer that can redefine your store's success. If your shelves are not stocked with carefully curated multipacks, or your CPG brand is not offering multipacks, you might be missing the golden ticket to customer satisfaction and business growth.

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

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.

Sure, you may recognize our reusable handles on the six-pack 12-oz regular or the quad-pack 16-oz craft beer found in grocery stores, dock sales, and even in build-your-own beer coolers. 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.

Today, packaging trends have shifted considerably, as consumers are rethinking their packaging choices, re-evaluating their purchasing habits and educating themselves on sustainable practices. Similarly, producers are accommodating consumers’ preferences into their products by investing in advanced technologies, working with different materials and techniques and setting ambitious environmental targets. Brands, distributors, and retailers are increasingly becoming more selective with the type of packaging solution they choose.

In the aftermath of COVID-19, it’s not just public health that’s on everyone’s mind. In businesses all over the world, supply chain issues are turning once-smoothly running systems into logistical nightmares.
