Foam & Lightweight Solutions
Reducing weight, minimizing costs, meeting the expectations of consumers and other stakeholders; in today’s world OEMs and brand owners are designing packaging to use as little material as possible. Packaging has a crucial role to play, particularly in helping to reduce waste and in protecting goods for consumers while complying with ever more stringent regulations that are put in place to increase food and consumer safety.
