    Packaging is inevitably part of products we buy and therefore play a major role in our day to day living

    Packaging is inevitably part of the products we buy and therefore plays a major role in our day to day lives. We have to take consumer needs and market fluctuation into consideration when incorporating packaging design strategy. Packaging design and development requires manufacturers to focus on design and functionality of packaging, quality assurance, legal and regulatory guidelines, logistics, marketing, graphics and sustainability issues. Manufacturers are encouraged to develop packaging which will contribute to achieving European Union’s Sustainable Development Strategy. This exclusive marcus evans conference will explore innovative packaging design and development, technologies, materials, processes, legal regulations, sustainability approaches, and packaging communication, all of which are lead to consumer and environmentally friendly packaging and labelling.
