the company towards integrating pollable information into printed physical objects.

Bawa Singh, Executive Vice President for Alpha Assembly Solutions, gave an informative account on tailor-made printed electronics and how they can value-add to the current packaging sector. With solutions built around the packaging itself, this technology should be implemented at the product design stage— fast becoming the key enabler to smart packaging.

Corey Wilson, Vice President for Business Development at EVERTHNG, highlighted the importance of supply chain traceability and digital rewards for customer loyalty when they are making purchase decisions. In using a consistent digital activation language, brands can create active digital identities for themselves through complete supply chains, to meet the requirements of GS1 and to inspire customer confidence.

Tim Hadsel-Mares, Regional Director in Asia for Switzerlandbased ScanTrust, contributed to existing discussion with smart packaging and cloud-based solutions to fulfil increasing customer concern for goods’ production information, sustainability, and authenticity. Importantly, he introduced the room to the concept of “the Internet of packaging”—where an ecosystem is created through a communication channel among the physical good, brand, and consumer.

Apiwat Thongprasert, Senior Business Development Manager from Silicon Craft Technologies, spoke of Near Field Communication (NFC) tags—which had been predominantly enabled for Android devices, and for most Apple ones. Along similar lines, he also touched upon applying intelligent packaging to after-purchase customer engagement to achieve brand sustainability—the core objective running through the minds of many business owners.

t the AIPIA Conference 2018 in the morning of 14 June, themed “Active & Intelligent Packaging Technologies for Smart Printing & Packaging for the Digital Age”, experts in the field contributed their insights into the vast opportunities for businesses to leverage technologies to win both shares in increasingly competitive markets and customers’ attention.

The rapid rise in technology standards has significantly influenced the way suppliers and consumers purchase. Amidst this tech-heavy environment, businesses are required to do the most to keep up—reimagining packaging is one way to do so. Within the next years, Active & Intelligent Packaging (A&IP) is expected to be the most disruptive development for industries in decades. As the Active & Intelligent Packaging Industry Association (AIPIA) aptly describes: “The old ‘3P’s of Protect, Preserve and Promote will be supplemented by factors such as Trace, Authenticate, Inform, Add Value, Secure and Reduce Waste”.

According to Grand View Research, the smart packaging market size is forecasted to reach US$26.7 billion by 2024 and growing at CAGR 10.6 percent between 2016 to 2024. Against this backdrop, implementing technologies can push packaging to an unprecedented level across the complete value chain—packaging will transcend the role of a conventional container or wrapper, and will serve to further food safety, security and marketing functions.

In the opening address delivered by Andrew Manly, Communications Director from AIPIA, the reason behind the growing trend of A&IP in Asia Pacific as the region becomes a global hub for manufacturing activities—along with the spike in consumer culture—finds resonance at ProPak Asia this year.

Suparat Chotikultanachai, Thailand’s Country Manager for HP Inc. Limited, shared with attendees the latest developments from

2 Pavilion Highlights The Show Daily team visited several country pavilions to find out:

What are you hoping to achieve at ProPak Asia this year?

Tanja Schoniger, Senior Manager of Business Development Beviale Family (CB11): As trade show organisers in the beverage industry, our aim is to invite interested parties to visit our shows as an exhibitor or visitor. For example, our newest show, based in Bangalore, India, will cover the whole spectrum of beverage production and marketing in beer, wine and spirits. It is due to attract 2,500 visitors from 4th to 5th July 2018. The show will be held in partnership with the German Brewing Technology Institute ( VLB) and host engaging conferences.”

David Harrison, Group Exhibition Manager of Processing And Packaging Machinery Association (PPMA), UK (AU45):

Jorge Izquierdo, Packaging Machiner y Manufacturers Institute (PMMI), AX22: ProPak has been a great show that provides the right customers for our business with a reach beyond Thailand into the Asia Pacific region within a single location, thus making our investment much more effective and efficient. Our aim this year is to grow PMMI’s and our members’—North American manufacturers and suppliers of technology— presence in the region, with a highlight to improve automation by taking advantage of Industry 4.0 technologies that can work with current equipment in operations and existing production lines.”

region. This year, the Bavarian Pavilion is represented by 10 companies with some having an existing presence in Thailand.”

Adrien Calatayud, Project Manager of Agrotech, representing Business France (BP27): The objective at ProPak this year is to meet buyers from various regions and countries—this event provides a good platform to do so. We put a lot of effort into inviting the right people and organising B2B meetings at the French Pavilion.”

Corinna Waritschlager, representative of the Bavarian Pavilion:

Daniel Schibur, Sales Manager, TheegartenPactec, representing the Confectionery Pavilion (AZ31):

On behalf of the Bavarian Ministry of Economic Affairs, Energy and Technology and in partnership with the German Engineering Federation, we bring small and medium-sized Bavarian companies to the show. With definite interest for the Southeast Asian market, these Bavarian companies—some joining ProPak Asia for the first time—can increase their access to the

We have a strong customer base in the region and as such, we think it’s important to establish a new hub—this hub is not for the company but for our customers who are interested in finding our products and suppliers in one place. There isn’t an exhibition in Asia that only focuses on confectionery, as there is in Europe, so we use shows like ProPak Asia to establish a base within Asia.”

For 15 years, PPMA has been participating in ProPak Asia (PPKA); PPKA is one of the popular shows in which PPMA participates—with a history of developing a good number of leads and inquiries. In recent years, there has been increased participation in the UK Pavilion. As a trade association, PPMA leverages PPKA to introduce companies to the region, to source local agents and distributors, and to strengthen companies’ ability for after-sales support. Over the years, there have been about 45 UK companies which have participated but have since developed to acquire local representatives in the regional markets.”

Shen Huizhen, Manager of International Relations for the Association of Small and Medium Enterprises (ASME), Singapore (BE25): Participating in ProPak Asia for the seventh year, ASME has seen an increase in exhibiting companies.

These companies have broadened their customer base not just in Thailand, but from the wider Asian region. Among them, some have rejoined PPKA after 3-4 years with the Asia Pacific markets picking up rapidly. Working with the Singapore Food Manufacturers’ Association, ASME is bringing in more industry participants for PPKA. Being the industry’s largest show in the region, PPKA is an ideal and focused platform for networking even among Singapore companies who have not met each other in Singapore.”

Have You Heard Of The New Plastics Economy?

I

f your business is seeking to reimagine the way in which it uses plastic, The New Plastics Economy movement by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation provides sound key principles that can be used as goals to achieve over a set period of time. The movement uses the theory of a circular economy to “rethink and redesign the future of plastics, starting with packaging”.

Globally, the use of plastics has created negative externalities that cannot be rectified with fragmented anti-plastic movements. Despite the efforts made by various organisations and associations, plastic is still the go-to material for many packaging companies. The movement posits that the reason for this is the lack of a unified voice that captures the degradative value of plastic.

As a result, the New Plastics Economy Initiative aims to streamline the information that manufacturers receive about the impact of plastic on the environment. The initiative also aims to create a joint sense of direction for the circular economy, in order to “spark a wave of innovation and to move the plastics value chain into a positive spiral of value capture, stronger economics, and better environmental outcomes”.

*Statistics taken from the Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s report on The New Plastics Economy.

Did you know?

About 95 percent of plastic packaging material value, or USD 80–120 billion annually, is lost to the economy after a short first-use cycle.

APSOL: Transferring Machine Knowledge And Learning To Clients (AN21/AN31) A

PSOL is an Italian company that specialises in secondary packaging equipment—in particular, case packaging machines and palletising equipment.

They cater solutions to the food industry as well as chemical and pharma industries. The Show Daily team speaks to Markus Busselli, Director of APSOL, about the company’s journey.

Busselli: “Last year, together with our partner, Clearpack, we supplied 2 complete lines to a large spirit manufacturer in Thailand. With this new line, our client was able to fill up to 300 bottles per minute. We also supplied palletising equipment, case packing and a centralised robotic palletising cell for the 2 lines.

Our local Thai service engineers were trained in our headquarters in Italy to ensure that they have the capability to cater to our clients in Thailand. The local

team is now in-charge of the entire process of not only transferring the machines to our clients’ operations but also their machine knowledge.

Sometimes, even when our clients are setting up a new plant, new and existing staff need to be trained on how to operate the machinery we provide. As such, we provide a guided hands-on training session for personnel so that our clients can use our machinery optimally.

Traditionally, Thailand is one of APSOL’s most important markets—we have been established here for almost 20 years. Our objective at ProPak Asia this year is to consolidate our reach in the market, meet our clients and follow-up on existing projects.”

Case Study: Signature Snacks Optimises Production With Solutions Supplied By Hastamat (AY31) A

fter meeting at a food industry exhibition in the Middle East, Hastamat and Emirates-based snack manufacturer, Signature Snacks, embarked on a process to optimise manufacturing operations using Hastamat’s machinery expertise.

Nizar Rajoub, CEO of Signature Snacks, comments on the service and machinery he received from Hastamat: “Hastamat’s innovative engineering delivered a solution to every one of our demands… [their] machines work efficiently, just like the entire team behind them. They didn’t simply sell products but worked hand-in-hand with us to make a success of the project and achieve the very best in performance.”

CEO Rajoub also commended the team for their clear communication and quick decision-making. Marco Hinter of Hastamat is delighted by this praise: “We modified our existing machine platforms to meet Signature Snacks’ specific requirements. The various parties involved have since built up a close and trusting relationship.”

Dr Nathdanai Harnkarnsujarit Of Kasetsart University: Thai Flavours Are Advanced But Packaging Needs Work

I

n his opening remarks at the ASEAN-JAPAN Relationship Building Meeting at ProPak Asia, Dr Nathdanai, Lecturer at the Department of Packaging and Materials Technology at Kasetsart University, shared his insights on the local packaging industry. Firstly, he noted that most SME companies are being started by the younger generation, primarily business owners from 25 to 40 years of age. These companies can produce high quality and good food products; however, their knowledge of packaging still needs to be improved to experience success in the market. Packaging-related knowledge (e.g. packaging machine, packaging materials and packaging design) is important for industrial development.

Dr Nathdanai notes that although packaged Thai food is still as tasty as ever, manufacturers’ ability to package these products in order to preserve the taste is not something that packaging manufacturers possess. As such, he is calling for more research in this field in order to increase the shelf-life and improve the presentation of packaged Thai food.

Did you know?

The Thai government has projects to support and develop newborn SMEs. Packaging technology has improved dynamically so the knowledge has to be strongly transferred to the Thai food industry.

11 Rethinking Secondary Packaging Through Sustainability sustainability practices and goals. Using some of these Constructive Collaborations as benchmarks, it can become a baseline towards While revolutionising shipping solutions in the bid to creating an environmentally-conscious culture in the reduce environmental impacts, it would be helpful organisation, which can result in surprising innovation to study the success stories from other businesses in this aspect. which Propak have implemented—or even met—their Asia Show Daily, 152 x 251 mm, Contiform 3 Pro, CC-en36-AZ025 05/18

I

n the secondary packaging segment, waste that results is growing at a startling rate without a foreseeable ending, with majority of the packaging materials being used only once and then trashed.

However, in recent times, solutions have continually been developed to ensure that packaging supplies and products are composed of materials that do not sit in landfills for years—or worse.

Being responsible plastic users includes paying attention to finer details, such as the oft-overlooked difference between “recyclable” and “recycled”. The world of sustainable packaging can be confusing, and terminology can also be innocently (or otherwise) misleading. As a rule, the higher the recycled content, the better, regardless of paperboard or plastics.

Currently, as long as manufacturers do not specify a guaranteed minimum of recycled content, it is safe to consider that the manufacturer might not be providing consistently green solutions. Therefore, customers have every right to question dubious sustainability claims.

Optimising Shipping Solutions A crucial factor to significantly lower the carbon footprint in the secondary packaging aspect lies in the size, shape and design of packaging solutions.

Accurate design, tests, and validation of tailor-made shipping solutions can greatly reduce the amount of materials used without compromising on protection and handling ease.

Another method is through the optimisation of the supply chain. While materials and production of shipping crates prove important, a reduction in the amount of time that products are in transport—for example, by changing routes or using alternative transportation methods—can save money and reduce the carbon impact overall. A revision of the entire shipping process can give hints as to where changes can be implemented.

However, in the redesign and implementation of any changes, it is essential that shipping products and methods be put to the test, with proven capacity to withstand abuses which they may experience. This is to ensure that along with the lowering of environmental impact, overall costs can also be reduced without the loss of quality—for example, damages are not incurred on products during the process.

Yet, undoubtedly, secondary packaging materials still have to be manufactured and a major impact on the environment is the use of energy and the creation of more manufacturing by-products.

Most direct among these solutions towards sustainability is the minimisation of waste. By evaluating the entire supply chain, it is possible to detect any avoidable wastage. One example is the possibility of replacing some disposable packaging with reusable ones. Reusable solutions are especially well-catered for fixed distribution points, for example.
