The future is now in part six of unPaCKed’s six-part sustainability sit-down with Packaging World editors Anne Marie Mohan and Matt Reynolds. Bioplastics reads like an oxymoron, but the revolutionary new materials from renewable resources versus petroleum are indeed here to stay. Mohan and Reynolds cover sustainability and packaging materials daily and examine how sugar cane, corn, and even wood chips now find their way into packaging materials in lieu of traditional plastics.
