PTS: Symposium on Innovative Packaging

This year PTS is organising the symposium on May 20 and 21 together with COST Action FP1003 “Impact of renewable materials in packaging for sustainability – development of renewable fibre and bio-based materials for new packaging applications”.

The PTS Symposium was installed in 2005 and has regularly attracted the attention of attendees both from industry and university. This cooperation provides the unique opportunity for the audience to learn about most recent research results from European research institutes as well as practical applications evaluated from an industrial point of view.

The symposium focusses on paper-based packaging materials and will cover recent developments in manufacturing, design and functionalization of packages. The potentials of fiber based packages are illustrated in all steps of product development: starting with the selection of appropriate raw materials, the application of innovative processes to design new and functional materials and ending with their conversion to powerful packages e.g. via electronic printing.
