Today is World Packaging Day. 🌍

The World Packaging Organisation picked this date on purpose — it's the day WPO itself was founded, and now it marks something bigger: a moment to recognise what packaging actually does for the world, rather than what it's usually blamed for.

The idea behind it is simple. Packaging keeps food safe and edible longer. It makes trade and logistics possible at a global scale. It protects products, supports local businesses, and increasingly, it's where some of the most interesting sustainability innovation is happening. It supports sustainability, economic development, food protection, innovation, and quality of life — and most people never think about any of that until it's missing.

WPO is uniquely placed to lead something like this. As the only global body representing the entire packaging value chain, they're bringing together industry, academia, policymakers and the public to build awareness around four themes: health and accessibility, food waste reduction, economic growth, and sustainability. ♻️

This first edition is really the starting point — 2026 is about building momentum, with the full global campaign taking shape from here.

So today feels like a good day to say it plainly: packaging isn't the problem people often assume it is. Most of the time, it's the solution.

Sealing a tray usually means heat. Securikett just found a way around that. ♻️

The Austrian company has developed a label system that closes trays and cups securely without any heat-sealing step at all. Instead, the closure happens through the label itself — applied automatically with standard labeling or dispensing equipment.

What makes it interesting is how much is packed into one label. Structured adhesive coatings, built-in VOID technology for tamper evidence, precise silicone coating, custom die-cutting — all working together so the label does several jobs at once. It shows if a package has been opened, and it can include functional details like ventilation holes or viewing windows, directly built into the design.

Vanessa Mitterer-Kling, Head of Research and Development at Securikett, explains that they combined multiple technologies so they work together within a single label. Tamper-evident solutions aren't new — they've been used in cash transport for years — but bringing that same level of security to tray and cup packaging, without the heat and without the added complexity, is new.

It's a good example of where packaging innovation is actually happening right now: not always in flashy new materials, but in rethinking how existing processes can be simplified.

🍫 The most advanced machine in the world is worthless without the people to run it.

That was the standout message from our conversation with Andreas Kratzer, Head of Consumer Foods at Bühler, on the stand at interpack 2026.

🍪 From biscuits and wafers to bar lines and moulding solutions, Bühler starts every conversation with the end product, the food itself, and works backwards to the technology.

🎓 Why Future Skills Tops The List

Of interpack's three hot topics, Andreas was clear about which matters most to Bühler: future skills. Because no matter how sophisticated the equipment, without skilled operators and talent to run it, the assets sit idle. He emphasized: "All the assets are of no value if there are no operators, no talent in the future to run the equipment efficiently. That's why we focus on people — from apprenticeships to customer training. That's what makes all the assets come alive."

⭐️A Wish for The Next Five Years

Walking the halls of interpack 2026, Andreas saw electric solutions everywhere — and issued a clear call to the industry. Suppliers like Bühler have the electrical, sustainable technology ready to go.

His hope? That markets and customers follow suit and invest in them, so the industry can build a genuinely sustainable future together.

The technology is here. Now it's about the people to run it — and the will to adopt it. 🙌

🏭 "If you want to see the real thing — a real factory, real value — that's Multivac."

We had the pleasure of speaking with Christian Traumann, CEO of the Multivac Group and long-time interpack figure — former President, current Vice President of the show — at interpack 2026.

Few people have a broader view of this industry. Multivac does wall-to-wall: cutting, processing and final packaging across both food and medical. And at interpack, their stand ran live — connecting machines, supplying and collecting data and helping customers analyse their production challenges in real time.

📊 What's Driving the Market

Christian Traumann put it clearly: customers are facing cost, environmental and sustainability pressures driven by new European legislation, alongside a growing shortage of labour and engineering capacity. The result? They increasingly want complete, end-to-end solutions — the exact requirements may differ, but the underlying need is the same.
He emphasized:

"There's a sustainability question, a cost question, efficiency and future-proofing. You don't buy machines for five years only. That's what customers are weighing up today."

🔭 The Next Five Years

Multivac's honest take on the challenge ahead: new market entrants and price pressure. The task for established players is to answer a simple question — how do you deliver the best value at the lowest cost, without compromising on the sustainability, efficiency and longevity that customers now demand?

And will Multivac be back at interpack in three, six, nine years? "Yes, definitely."

We already look forward to meeting you again at interpack 2029! 🙌

🧇 A firework of innovation — 127 years of wafer expertise on show at interpack 2026.

We met Marcel Fackert, CEO of Hebenstreit, on the stand at interpack 2026. Founded in 1898, the company remains a leading innovator in wafer and snack baking — and this year, they came ready to impress: showcasing their new BAK wafer baking system with five patents already in place.

🌏 One Global Show - Many Local Needs

For Marcel, the value of interpack is the chance to meet customers from every region and understand what each market truly needs. Product development varies enormously by country and there's no substitute for those conversations happening face to face.

He emphasized: "Cost efficiency is everywhere — you have to make your products more efficient for customers. On the other hand, there's energy efficiency. We have gas, we have electricity, but hydrogen is also coming up. Maybe not directly, but in the next years."

🔭The Next Five Years - Protein, Gluten-Free & Beyond

Hebenstreit's outlook for the industry points towards new product frontiers — protein-based options, gluten-free wafers and other innovative snacks. The philosophy is simple: spot the trends, understand what's coming, then build the machines to make it happen.

From 1898 to hydrogen-ready baking, Hebenstreit is proof that heritage and innovation aren't opposites — they're partners. 🙌

🐟 Tuna in a carton? Tetra Pak just reinvented a category that hasn't changed in generations.

In a shelf-stable tuna market defined by the round can for as long as anyone can remember, Tetra Pak — in collaboration with Spanish seafood leader Jealsa — has unveiled the industry's first carton packaging for shelf-stable tuna.

Packaged in Tetra Recart®, it launched in Sweden last month and is now rolling out to producers and brands worldwide.

📊Why it Matters

🌍 85% lower carbon footprint than steel cans, 83% lower than glass jars
♻️ Up to 71% FSC™-certified paper from responsibly managed forests
📉 21,000 tonnes less CO₂ per 1 million cans, at scale

And with the global shelf-stable tuna market projected to grow 12% to 12.4 billion units by 2030, the timing couldn't be sharper.

💬 Tatiana Liceti, EVP Packaging Solutions at Tetra Pak emphazises the new opportunity for producers to stand out: "This is true packaging innovation in a category that has looked the same for generations. We are giving producers a new way to stand out on shelf, support cost-competitive production and modernise with a paper-based alternative to cans."

Which other established product has room for new innovation?

🌍 10 billion people by 2050. They’ll all need to eat, drink and stay healthy.

At interpack 2026, VDMA’s Richard Clemens laid out why packaging & processing might just be one of the most future-proof industries on the planet. A growing global population and rising urbanization mean more processed food, more medicine, more demand — everywhere. 📈

His advice for staying ahead? Customer-centricity, AI as standard, a serious focus on future skills — and never stop learning from competitors across Asia, Africa and South America. 🤖🎓

The takeaway: people will always need to eat and drink. The question is who builds the technology to make it happen. 🙌

⚖️ From Today on Every Packaging Design Decision is also a Compliance Decision 🏛️

The EU's Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) has reached a pivotal moment. In force since February 2025, most of its obligations become applicable this month — and the ripple effects reach straight into how packaging is developed, what it's made of and how it's designed.

The core question has shifted. It's no longer only "does this package do its job?" It's now equally "is it recyclable, does it contain enough recycled content and is it material-efficient?"

In our latest magazine article we talk about the changes and shifts, the impactful regulations comes with.

🔑 What's Changing - in short.

♻️ Design for Recycling — materials, labels, colours, adhesives and closures all now influence recyclability. Small details can make or break it.

🔄 Reusability targets — from 2030, defined reuse and refill goals across transport packaging, e-commerce and food service, with QR-based digital identifiers.

🧴 Mono-materials rising — fewer materials mean easier recycling, though high-barrier applications still pose challenges.

📊 Recycled content mandates — post-consumer recyclates become essential, often requiring adapted designs and processes.

⚖️ Lightweighting — less material helps, but only if protection and recyclability aren't compromised.

🤝 The Biggest Shift? Collaboration.

Packaging developers no longer make material decisions in isolation. Procurement, production, quality management and regulatory specialists all now sit at the same table — and increasingly, so do material suppliers and brand owners across the entire value chain.

🍫 Ever wondered how those spiky truffles get their signature look?

At interpack 2026, Sollich showed us the magic behind the machine.

Raw filling drops into the hopper, glides through a chocolate bath in the enrober, then rolls into that perfectly spiky finish — the exact look you spot in the praline shop. ✨

What a chocolatier once did by hand, a machine now does with precision, at scale. And that’s the bigger story of packaging & processing: the craft you love, engineered to reach millions. 🌍

Behind every treat on the shelf, there’s a process worth celebrating. 🙌
