In the rapidly evolving world of plastics packaging, the focus on circular economy and sustainability is more important than ever. This is especially true in the Latin American region, where the 21st LAPET series - Circular Plastics Packaging LATAM event is set to take place on December 3-4, 2025.
Hosted by EB Publishing, a platform that specialises in publishing news, events, jobs, and thought leadership, this event promises to be a hub of innovation and discussion for the plastics packaging industry. The theme of the event, circular economy and sustainability, is a reflection of the current industry trends emphasised by ANIPAC and other Latin American plastics organisations.
Key topics for the event include accelerating the transition towards plastic circularity, recycling innovations, sustainable plastic sourcing, and industry growth challenges and opportunities driven by sustainability goals. Waste management companies and advancements in chemical recycling will also be a part of the event.
The event will also delve into infrastructure development for close-loop recycling of flexible packaging, innovations in barrier coatings, sustainable ink, and laminating adhesives for recyclable flexible packaging, and growth trends and design guidelines for flexible packaging.
Retailers and brand-owners will discuss their sustainable packaging trends and strategies, while alternative materials/solutions to circularity, including compostable, biodegradable, and recyclable options, will also be explored.
