With open panels, fireside chats and roundtables, content is designed to dig into granular issues—from the economics of sustainable innovation to the logistics of effective recycling.

Sessions will cover carbon‑footprint measurement, supply‑chain complexity, decoration and ink impacts, and policy updates like Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR).

Why the summit comes at a crucial time

As the packaging sector scrambles to meet tougher environmental targets, this summit offers a rare chance for cross‑sector dialogue. Manufacturers, recyclers (such as RECOUP), brand owners, designers and government bodies like DEFRA will convene.

With an intimate format capped at around 200 attendees last year, the event encourages candid discussion and direct networking, allowing participants to exchange ideas on real‑world challenges and solutions in sustainable packaging.
