ABOUT PROPAK VIETNAM 2023

 

The 16th International Processing, Packaging Exhibition for Vietnam - ProPak Vietnam 2023 will officially take place from November 08th - 10th, 2023 at Saigon Exhibition & Convention Center (SECC), District 7, HCMC.

 

The world is producing twice as much plastic waste as two decades ago, with the bulk of it ending up in landfill, incinerated or leaking into the environment, and only 9% successfully recycled, according to a new OECD report (2022). A growing world population has increased the demand for plastic packaging; therefore, this problem will only further intensify. The world’s plastic production is expected to double in capacity by 2040. This could lead to a doubling of plastic waste and a tripling of plastic leakage to the ocean by 2040 (The Pew Charitable Trusts, 2020).

 

Today, we are at the beginning of a change in the packaging industry: Increased consumer awareness, higher demand for sustainable packaging solutions, newly established policies around the globe, and a growing number of large Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) companies committing to change their packaging for the better. This requires technical innovation and an increased utilization of new renewable resources.
