Unwrapping the future of eco-designed packaging 1 of 2
Here we are, at the start of life returning to something more recognisable and yet everything has changed. The way we work, the way we socialise, and the way we shop have all been challenged, altered or at least reappraised.
But what does this mean for packaging? And more specifically, what does the future of eco-designed packaging look like now?
The latest podcast in our PaperTalks series explores these questions with the expert help of our very own Stefan Pryor and Tricia Hartmann who are joined by Evelio Mattos from Package Design Unboxd, Charlotte Keesing from Walpole British Luxury and Kirsty Taylor from Lakes Distillery.
