Nearly half of the CPGs interviewed for “Packaging Sustainability: A Changing Landscape 2020” are working to reduce their overall carbon footprint, focusing on reducing water, gas, and electric. Package design and primary packaging lines are other areas of focus, but secondary packaging lines are also under scrutiny to become more efficient. CPGs are expecting to purchase new equipment such as robotic case packers and palletizers, case erectors, cartoners, palletizers and de-palletizers, and automatic case packers.
