To comply with new regulatory actions as well as to satisfy their own customers, brand owners are passing new requirements on to their packaging partners. “This is where true partnerships with customers can make a huge difference,” Meytal says. “K1’s brand owner customers proactively discuss their long-term plans so that K1 can provide input and be prepared.” Meytal goes on to say that the packaging printers, best positioned to serve the expanded market, will satisfy brands’

You have to give them credit for doing their homework and executing meaningful initiatives,” Meytal says.
