16 Mar 2020 --- Food packaging plays a “high” and “critical” role in achieving a sustainable food supply chain, according to 100 percent of participants in an online survey in the recent roundtable webinar, “Food Packaging vs Waste – Moving Towards a Circular Economy.” The table discussion, organized by the Advanced Services Group at Aston University, UK, and sponsored by Ishida Europe, found that 45 percent feel they are “not informed” or have a “low knowledge level” of packaging, its recyclability and the shelf-life of the food they buy. This webinar took place as the symbiotic responsibility of food waste and packaging sustainability for both consumers and companies alike is increasingly coming to the fore.
