Dow Chemical Company’s Packaging and Specialty Plastics (P&SP) business has opened new pack studios centre in Singapore, to help develop innovative packaging.

Known as Pack Studios Singapore, the new centre will allow customers to deliver faster and more efficient commercialisation of new and enhanced packaging.

Pack Studios Singapore features a collaboration room to support solution-based thinking, and laboratory facilities equipped with tools for material development as well as film fabrication and testing equipment to validate packaging application.

"We believe that this new Pack Studios will set the stage for greater innovation and collaboration."

P&SP’s pack studios centres intend to boost packaging application projects through a global network of laboratories, technical experts and testing equipment.

The newly opened Pack Studios Singapore is the second centre in the Asia Pacific region after Shanghai, China, and the sixth location worldwide.
