NMG Lunchtime Seminar Series Focus on Packaging

 

You are invited to join us for our monthly virtual event where we will be focusing on Packaging

 

The interactive seminar will also provide the opportunity for Questions and Answers and we often hang around at the end for a fun and engaging panel session. 

You will hear from:

Angela Morris - Wool - a naturally sustainable smart fibre

  • Wool is an amazing, mind-blowing, natural fibre, supported by thousands if not millions of years of nature's R&D. Woolcool uses this natural, sustainable, technical smart fibre in packaging applications to keep food and pharmaceutical products at a safe temperature, which ultimately can help save lives.

Vinai Mistry - The definition of Natural Materials 

  • What do we assume when we hear the term Natural Material?
  • How the SUPD helps to define what is considered a plastic 
  • The challenge ahead, when considering replacing plastics in packaging
