The journey towards sustainable packaging is fraught with challenges, especially for UK and European fibre-based manufacturers striving to replace plastic components. Legislative pressures like the Plastic Packaging Tax (PPT), Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), and the upcoming Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) are reshaping the packaging landscape.

Design teams are under immense pressure to innovate, to create packaging solutions that comply with new regulations AND meet the evolving demands of brand owners, retailers and consumers. The push for cost-effective, eco-friendly alternatives is real, and the pressure is growing for consumer demands to be met.

At NOA, we understand these complexities. Our new initiative with setting up “User Groups” is dedicated to providing hands-on, practical assistance to fibre-based manufacturers. We offer real-life experiences, share actual examples where we see pioneering inroads being achieved, offer insights into the latest materials and technologies, and present tangible connections across the entire supply chain to support packaging developments. Our goal is to support you in developing packaging solutions that are sustainable, compliant, and commercially viable.

If you’re navigating the challenges of plastic substitution and want to find practical support, get in touch with us. Let’s collaborate to drive innovation and sustainability in packaging.
