Siegwerk’s new dry pet food bag consists of solvent-based coatings to protect product, while ensuring circularity. 

This is the latest of several moves the pet wellness company has taken to advance its environmental and social initiatives.

In order to meet these targets, all changes must be in progress this year. 

NaturPak Pet and IPM Foods have merged to offer NaturPak customers enhanced co-manufacturing, co-packing, R&D and Tetra Recart services. 

The combined companies will create sustainable packaging solutions using both film- and fiber-based materials.

Consumers between the ages of 18 to 34 are more willing to sacrifice cost and convenience for more eco-friendly packaging.

In the pet food industry, corporate responsibility has evolved beyond sustainability — it encompasses employee, community and pet programs.

Mintel’s Lynn Dornblaser highlighted trends in personalization, naturalization and sustainability shaking up the industry.

The event covered emerging trends, sustainability, packaging, trade, ingredients and more in the industry.

This latest expansion represents a $10 million investment by the company.
