Fach­Pack 2019: Envi­ron­men­tal­ly-Friend­ly Pre­mi­um Packaging

Spe­cial Exhi­bi­tion on Envi­ron­men­tal­ly-Friend­ly Pre­mi­um Packaging

Dur­ing Fach­Pack 2019, Nürn­bergMesse and bay­ern design will present the spe­cial show Envi­ron­men­tal­ly-Friend­ly Pack­ag­ing in the Pre­mi­um Sec­tor in hall 8. The exhi­bi­tion will illus­trate how pack­ag­ing design enables sus­tain­able pack­ag­ing design through con­cep­tion, real­iza­tion and oth­er dif­fer­ent approaches.

The pack­ag­ing indus­try is devel­op­ing, thanks to the pub­lic inter­ests, inno­v­a­tive ideas and con­cepts for pack­ag­ing, demon­strat­ing new oppor­tu­ni­ties and ways to accom­mo­date the trend and the dynam­ics of sus­tain­able pack­ag­ing. This cre­ates new for­ward-look­ing and cre­ative designs that inspire visitors.

The exhibits are divid­ed into five cat­e­gories, which pro­vide an overview of dif­fer­ent approach­es to Envi­ron­men­tal­ly-Friend­ly Pack­ag­ing in the Pre­mi­um Sec­tor. They aim to show how a suc­cess­ful brand iden­ti­ty, first-rate design and sus­tain­able pack­ag­ing can help to achieve har­mo­ny. The curat­ed exhi­bi­tion will fol­low these five guid­ing themes:

• Recy­cling packaging
• Resource-sav­ing materials
• Reusable pack­ag­ing and systems
• (New) envi­ron­men­tal­ly-friend­ly processes
• Design as added value

The pre­sent­ed inno­va­tions describe new trends and impuls­es from the pack­ag­ing indus­try and are divid­ed into the areas mate­r­i­al, val­ue, process­es and idea creator.

Recy­cling packaging:
Pack­ag­ing is entire­ly or part­ly made of raw mate­ri­als. Recy­cled mate­ri­als have pre­vi­ous­ly been declared as waste, and now gain a new ben­e­fit through a sus­tain­able processing.

Resource-sav­ing materials:
World­wide the use of nat­ur­al, pro­gres­sive­ly and scarce resources increas­es con­stant­ly. The raw mate­r­i­al extrac­tion goes over the pro­cess­ing, towards the design of the prod­ucts, trade and con­sump­tion. As well as the re-use or the dis­pos­al of raw mate­ri­als are all influ­enced by design and thought­ful packaging.

Reusable pack­ag­ing and systems:
The prin­ci­ple of reusing has been applied for thou­sands of years and it remains expand­able. It plays an essen­tial role in the pack­ag­ing indus­try and opens new mar­kets. The dif­fer­ent exhibits show prob­lems as well as the design diver­si­ty of reusable pack­ag­ing and systems.

(New) envi­ron­men­tal­ly-friend­ly processes:
Pack­ag­ing can be a mar­ket­ing tool, deliv­er infor­ma­tion, pro­tect, act as a trans­porta­tion agent, attract atten­tion and sup­port an over­all con­cept. Also here inno­v­a­tive con­cepts for design are find­ing ways to enter the market.

Design as added val­ue: Design cre­ates added value!
