f we truly are what we eat, Canada’s health czars are adamant to turn Canadians into a very unadventurous humdrum bunch of grain-fed creatures consuming an assortment of plain ‘good for you’ plants, legumes and nuts that, according to the new Canada’s Food Guide, are the missing link to our collective health and well-being.

Look, no one is denying that Canada has its share of serious dietrelated health issues such as obesity, diabetes, heart disease and other nasty ailments related to overeating and lack of sufficient exercise, but if the revamped 2019 Food Guide is intended to be an inspirational rallying cry for Canadians to embrace a new wave of alternative proteins and other meat and dairy substitutes, one has to wonder about the point of the whole exercise.

Considering the Canada Food Guide was last updated back in 2017, it’s hard to take issue with the fact that Health Canada has belatedly made the time to bring Canadians up to speed on healthy eating, but the resounding ‘meh’ execution of this well-intended initiative leaves a rather hollow feeling inside.

In all fairness, it is just too much work to get excited about the rather bland, if varied, offering of finger-sized tidbits depicted on Health Canada’s pictogram of what a well-balanced meal should look like. (See Graphic) Whatever little loose bits of meat and fish you

can spot in the upper-right corner of the plate are dwarfed by the heaps of beans, nuts and chickpeas, while the suggested serving of carbs directly below resembles something closer to birdseed feed than a reasonable facsimile of a proper side-dish.

For its part, the left side of the plate is a medley of mostly fresh-cut chunks of sliced fruit and veggies that, despite providing a few splashes of color to the graphic, look like they should be served as salad garnishes rather than a substantive source of nourishment.

But it’s really what the new Food Guide doesn’t show on its graphic plate—cheese, milk, a broader meat variety—that makes it such a joyless buzzkill.

If this ensemble were actually a graphic package design for a brand, the product would never stand a chance on a store-shelf!

Demonizing meat and dairy products is not a new phenomenon, but in the last few years it has become more fashionable, as evidenced by the latest global scare campaigns linking meat production and consumption directly to global warming, no less, on account of fairly stretched factual evidence.

Like everyone else, vegetarians and animal welfare activists are all entitled to their opinions, but politicizing those opinions under the guise of public health policy is something Health Canada should have no part of.

Unfortunately, the latest Canada Food Guide appears to imply too much pandering to the meatfree crowd to suggest that sound science was the one true driving force guiding its development and execution. And that’s a pity for all of us.

CANADIAN HEMP PROCESSOR PLANTING THE SEEDS OF SUPERFOOD INNOVATION Despite being one of the modern society’s most wrongly maligned plants, industrial help was actually one the world’s first plants to be spun into usable fabric by early humans 10,000 years ago, and today can be refined into a plethora of useful commercial products such as paper, textiles, clothing, biodegradable plastics, paint, animal feeds, insulation, biofuel and food.

And thanks to a hearty new line of hemp-based granola mix developed by Manitoba Harvest Hemp Foods, mainstream Canadian consumers can enjoy the natural

‘superfood’ goodness of shelled hemp seeds as part of a healthy breakfast or nourishing one-the-go snacking.

Packaged in elegant resealable standup pouches designed by Austin, Tex.based graphic design agency PTMK, the 283-gram packs of Hemp Yeah! Honey & Oats, Hemp Yeah! Blueberry and Hemp Yeah! Dark Chocolate granola blends offer a crunchy, chewy and tasty snack densely packed with protein and nutrients, including: • Ten grams of plant-based, non-soy protein with 10 grams

of sugar or less; A healthy helping of Omega 3, Omega 6, iron, zinc, fiber, magnesium and other essential nutrients in a 55-gram serving.

• High-quality, organic, non-GMO ingredients like shelled hemp seeds, quinoa, chia and natural sweeteners.

According to company founder Mike Fata, the hemp seed is an overlooked “nutritional powerhouse” that contains twice the protein, 10 times the amino acids, 25 per cent more Omega 3 and Omega 6, and 70 per cent more iron than chia or flax seed per 30-gram serving.

Although hemp comes from the same Cannabis Stevia plant species as its more notorious distant cousin marijuana, it contains only negligible traces of the psychoactive ingredient THC (less than 0.003 per cent), so there is no chance whatsoever of getting high from the product.

According to Fata, a long-time user of different hemp products for health and nutritional reasons, Manitoba Harvest is the world’s largest manufacturer to grow, make and sell its own lone of hemp food products.

“At Manitoba Harvest we take a seedto-shelf approach,” he states.

“We are pat of an entire process that includes working with Canadian farmers on what hemp seeds get planted, to controlling how the products are manufactured, packaged and distributed in store.

“By manufacturing the highestquality hemp foods, we aim to educate consumers on the nutritional and environmental benefits of hemp.”

Providing one-year product shelf-life, the Hemp Yeah! pouches incorporate a sturdy, user-friend PTC “press-toclose” releasable closures to keep the product fresh after opening.

“The resealable closure is important to us because it maintains our product freshness and integrity,” Fata states.

“Since more than 10 per cent of our product is hemp, and since we don’t use any preservatives, it’s important that we limit the amount of oxygen that goes into the bag to maintain the freshness.”

Fata notes he is very happy with PTMK designers for creating outstanding package design that incorporates a generous see-through window in the front panel of the pouch to let consumers examine the product up-close, along with the “different bright, bold colors that tell what flavor the product is to evaluate.”

Adds Fata: “Our consumer will also appreciate seeing the ingredients highlighted on the back panel to show why ingredients were chosen and what nutritional value they brought.”

NOTES & QUOTES n Montreal-headquartered packaging machinery manufacturer Paxiom Group Inc. has formed a strategic partnership with an established Italian machine-builder ValTara, whereby ValTara will focus on further product development of Paxiom’s proprietary SleekWrapper brand of f lowwrapping machinery, along with other end-of-line container handling and automatic case-loading systems. Operating out of a new, wholly-owned 20,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Schio, Italy, ValTara has already completed several key local strategic acquisitions that it says will further complement Paxiom’s already robust product line, while also providing Paxiom with a strategic operating base for expanding its business growth in the European, Russian, Middle Eastern and African markets. nToshiharu Kageyama, mechanical engineer at the research-and-development department of Japanese packaging machinery manufacturer Ishida Co., Ltd., has been awarded the 62nd Kyoto Inventors Award for the innovative new oval-shaped 18-head multihead weigher that Kageyama invented to overcome some traditional limitations in the operation of high-speed vertical form–fill-seal (VFFS) packaging machinery. (See Picture) According to Heat and Control, Inc., which is the exclusive distributor of

Ishida industrial weighing, packaging and inspection systems across North America and Latin America, as well as Australia and New Zealand, the new multihead weigher provides highly accurate and consistent weighing on high-speed VFFS machines to support the bagmaking process executed by these machines at exceptionally high speeds—performing up to 280 weight measurements per minute. Patented in Japan, the new technology has already been installed at more than 350 snack-food, baked-goods and vegetable processing plants worldwide. “I am honored to receive this historical award, it is a great pleasure that the product created from my ideas are satisfying customers needs throughout the world,” says Kageyama, who is currently involved in the development of next-generation Ishida multihead weigh scales that will incorporate artificial intelligence (AI) technology for even higher performance levels. nMP Solutions (JMP), London, Ont.-based industrial automation systems integrator, has completed the acquisition of Alfacon Solutions, manufacturer o custom-built material handling solutions operating in Milton, Ont., for the last 35 years. According to JMP, Alfacon’s existing customer base will significantly benefit from the infusion of JMP’s extensive expertise in the fields of robotics, AGVs (automated guided vehicles), control systems and MES (manu-

facturing execution system) technologies. “I could not be more thrilled to have our team become part of JMP Solutions,” says John Murdoch, Alfacon’s former chief executive officer now serving as managing director of JMP’s Material Handling Division.

“We can now offer our customers improved execution capabilities, long-term stability, broader turnkey solutions, more control system f lexibility and better system-wide implementation, coupled with worldclass project management capabilities to reduce project risk and improve returns for our customers.” nChesterfield, Mo.-based Pretium Packaging has won two high-profile international Worldstar awards of the World Packaging Organisation (WPO) for its new SureHandle polyethylene terephthalate (PET) container featuring an integrated handle.

Using proprietary OneBottle technology developed

by Houston, Tex.-based Practically Impossible Labs, the SureHandle container—currently available in 64-ounce and two-liter sizes—was recognized as a true “on-of-a-kind” bottle because it comes out of the injection mold with the handle already in place, integrated into the sidewall. According to Pretium, “This new technology creates new possibilities for many products—including beverages, foods and household and industrial chemicals—that could benefit from a monolayer PET container with an ergonomic handle-ware solution.”

The Power of Performance... means that our vast experience and expertise is

concentrated in the areas that directly offer the most value to our customers.

FIRST GLANCE XPERT OPINION

Generating 900W of X-Ray power, the new Xpert Heavy Duty (HD) X-ray inspection system from Thermo Fisher Scientific is designed to enable food manufacturers to obtain easy detection of a wide range of physical contaminants in large packages and dense, heavy products like cheese blocks, cases of spice, and boxes

containing various meat products.

Distributed in Canada by MD Packaging Inc., it features a large aperture width and height to accommodate big cases, boxes, bags and trays. Morover, the Xpert HD system incorporates a trapezoidal, top-down 770-mm-wide X-Ray beam at the belt, which narrows to 525-mm-wide at the 300-mm aperture height, as well as an enhanced mechanical design to stand up to daily washdowns and a water-cooled ceramic X-ray tube for long service life.

Delivering high penetration of food products in difficult applications to support the highest level of food safety, the Xpert HD offers: • Three inspection widths to optimize price and system size; • External water chiller for cooling the X-Ray tube; • The same easy-to-use software available on all Thermo Fisher Scientific Xpert conveyor models.

CAUGHT ON CAMERA The new FHV7 series smart camera from Omron Automation Americas features an all-new multicolor light and a high-resolution image sensor for advanced vision inspections on high-mix production lines. Designed to address the inspection needs of manufacturers running different products in different colors, shapes and sizes on a single production line, the FHV7 series smart camera’s multicolor light and an autofocus lens enables it to respond flexibly to any changes in the color and size of objects to be inspected. This eliminates the need for multiple cameras or manual lens adjustments, while ensuring compatibility with wideranging inspection criteria on lines producing many different types of products in varying quantities.

According to Omron, the system’s high-speed image compression algorithm compresses data at double the typical speed—enabling for all image data to be saved while simultaneously inspecting a second image to facilitate complete traceability. Some of the new smart camera’s other notable value-added features include: • Autofocus lens that covers a focal distance between 59-mm and 2,000-mm, so that even when differently sized products are running on the line, the focal range can be easily changed by altering parameters rather than moving the camera; • Modular structure that allows the user to freely combine the lens and lighting variants available for use with the camera; • Dual-core CPU that provides the fastest image processing speed among smart cameras (four times faster than the previous generation), according to Omron.

FIRST GLANCE (CCMS) from Agr International, Inc. is designed to provide operators with a one-stop, single operation testing station for measuring tin oxide coatings applied to a container during the production process. In order to achieve maximum precision on finish and body measurements, the CCMS incorporates dedicated measurement heads for each of the finish and body regions. According to the company, one head is optimized to operate with the precision necessary for the limited area of the finish region, while the second head is configured for body measurements where larger areas and heavier coatings are typically encountered. The advanced electronics of the system, in conjunction with dedicated measurement heads for finish and body, make it possible to precisely identify the presence of very small amounts of coating in the finish region while measuring heavier coating levels applied to the body of the container—all in one operation. The CCMS device is designed for fully automated operation, whereby the positioning of measurement heads— including vertical height location, container rotation and capture of measurement data—is performed in a single progression, without the need for operator intervention during the testing sequence.

cing them to complete the tray. Any missed syringes fall into a soft discharge bin to be manually re-introduced into the robotic tray-loading cell. At the discharge point, the third FANUC robot uses a hybrid vacuum/gripper EOAT to rotate a tray and stack it on the next tray that follows, after which it then picks both trays and places them on a discharge conveyor for downstream inspection and cartoning.

ESS Technologies

SURE TO PLEASE Designed for the specialty beverage markets, the new 64-ounce SureHandle polyethylene terephthalate (PET) container from Pretium Packaging features an integrated handle for user-friendly handling,

along with shatter-resistant construction and full recyclability.

Inspired by the ‘growler’ glass containers used in the craft brewing industry, the SureHandle jug weighs only 84 grams and costs a fraction of the original glass version, while providing an ideal vessel for larger quantities of beverages—from beer to juice and ice-brewed coffee—that are either consumed over time or by multiple people at home gatherings.

Agr International, Inc.

MOVING THE NEEDLES Incorporating three FANUC LR Mate 200iD robots with custom-designed end-of-arm tooling (EOAT) for gentle handling of fragile, pre-filled glass syringes, the new robotic tray-loading system from ESS Technologies is designed to automate the loading fivecount thermoformed trays at rates of up to 25 trays per minute. After the operator manually loads thermoformed trays into dual-powered, high-capacity tray magazines, the syringes enter the starwheel infeed via an infeed track that connects to the syringe filling equipment at a rate of 125 syringes per minute. At this point, the starwheel picks syringes and lays them in carriers on the infeed conveyor. From there, the first FANUC robot uses vacuum EOAT to pick a tray and, with the help of line tracking, places it on the lugged tray transport conveyor. A second robot, also equipped with line tracking, will then pick five syringes from the syringe infeed conveyor, load three in the tray, and rotate the remaining two syringes 180 degrees before pla-

CLUTCHING AT STRAWS With plastic drinking straws recently emerging as a serious contributor to the world’s growing marine pollution crisis, progressive companies like Stora Enso and Sulapac are quickly off to the races to develop an eco-friendly solution that will still allow consumers to enjoy the sheer convenience of this vitally handy utensil.

Demonstrated at the recent Slush 2018 global exhibition for technology startups in Helsinki, Finland, the new range of sustainable drinking straws are made from a specialty biocomposite material— comprising wood and natural binders—that can be recycled via industrial composting and will also biodegrade in marine environments.

In May of 2018, the two Finnish companies signed a joint development agreement that allows Stora Enso, one of Europe’s leading forest product groups, to license Sulapac’s innovative materials and technology, which drew highly positive feedback from over 20,000 visitors to Slush 2018.

“This is an important step for Stora Enso and it showcases our long-term commitment to gradually replacing fossil-based materials with renewable solutions,” says Annica Bresky, executive vice-president for the company’s Consumer Board Division.

“Our collaboration with Sulapac is a great example of what we can achieve through partnership in terms of driving innovation to create sustainable solutions within the bioeconomy,” states Bresky, noting the company is making plans to commence production of the renewable straws on industrial scale in the near future.

“Eco-awareness is a strong driver for consumer demand, and our customers want help in replacing non-renewable materials,” adds Hannu Kasurinen, senior vice-president for Stora Enso’s liquid packaging and carton board products.

“Different biocomposite solutions, such as renewable caps and closures and straws, will be add-ons and a complement to our own consumer board portfolio, while bringing additional value to our customers.”

Noting that Sulapac’s material works well with most existing extrusion lines, Kasurinen says Stora Enso expects the renewable straws to be available commercially in the second quarter of 2019.

“This straw has the potential to be a true game-changer,” says Sulapac’s founder and chief executive officer Suvi Haimi. “Being recyclable, microplastic-free and marine-biodegradable straw, this is the world’s most sustainable straw that can be produced on an industrial scale to provide an alternative to the billions of plastic straws are produced, used and discarded every week.”

Canadian folding-carton producer moves into the higher gear of production capacity and product quality with a new plant and state-of-the-art package converting machinery

M

s. Carol Jiang, president and founder of Beneco Packaging and subsidiary company SoOPAK.com, has come a long way since a pair of $2 chairs from a yard sale became her first assets when starting her business back in 2004.

And while such extreme penny-pinching may no longer be required, Jiang’s knack for fiscal discipline and cost control has enabled her paperboard converting business to achieve many impressive milestones over the years.

By any measure, the startup of Beneco’s second manufacturing facility just over a years in Toronto’s east-end is a just reward for a hardworking ‘lean’ manufacturing enterprise operating in one of the packaging industry’s most fiercely competitive market segments.

Coming online in early January of 2018, the new 43,000-square-foot plant in the city’s suburb of Scarborough is a confident statement of the company’s intent to continue scaling new heights in the Canadian folding-carton industry.

Equipped with some state-of-the-art printing press and converting equipment manufactured by the famed leading German printing press technologies experts Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG, the new Beneco plant is a testament to Jiang’s indomitable entrepreneurial spirit and sharp business acumen.

COVER STORY Along with Beneco’s original 45,000-square-foot plant in Mississauga, Ont., the company now employs 60 full-time staff over a two-shift, six-days-a-week schedule at the two locations— producing a diverse range of high-quality folding cartons for clients in a multitude of industries, with a strong focus on the food-andbeverage sector.

“For a company that started with almost nothing, we have grown very well indeed,” Jiang told Canadian Packaging on a recent visit to the new Scarborough location.

“It has been about 15 years now, and having done well enough to grow the business by expanding from one to two manufacturing locations will enable us to increase our capacity dramatically,” Jiang states.

Having already won an impressive number of prestigious awards in the past— including the 2018 Best Custom Medical Product Packaging Award from Global Health & Pharma (GHP)—the company is currently working on obtaining the vaunted GFSI (Global Food Safety Initiative) food safety certification to grow its client base in the food industry.

As one of the relatively few independent folding carton manufacturers in the North American market, Beneco and its SoOPAK.com subsidiary—a strictly online service for small-batch and short-run production of specialty packaging such as food boxes, soap boxes, wedding gift boxes and other custom-printed packaging—must leverage flexibility and customer service as key competitive core strengths.

Based on the growing order volumes, they have been able to get it all down to a science so far.

“I have a lot of customers that come up to me and say, ‘I heard that you’re the only few companies with good delivery in town at this moment,’ so we do whatever we need to do to meet our customers delivery requirement,” Jiang says.

“If my customers need their order in a rush, and I can make sure that they always get their products on time—that’s called flexibility.

“We offer high-quality packaging solutions designed to meet your turn-around time and specific needs—while keeping our customers’ costs down.

“Whether our customers require a small text run for a limited market or a large national rollout we have the expertise you need to meet your unique packaging goals in a cost effective way,” adds Jiang, a firm believer in the merits of JIT (justin-time) approach to order fulfillment and inventory control.

Stressing that equipment should always be waiting for an order rather than an order waiting for equipment, the standard delivery time from Beneco Packaging and SoOPAK.com is around three weeks, but they also provide five- and ten-day delivery options.

Beneco’s printing and finishing services include structural and graphic design, prepress, offset printing, UV Printing, embossing, die cutting, window patching, folding, gluing and other services.

Jiang’s point is clearly demonstrated beyond doubt with the massive capital investment the company made in new Heidelberg equipment installed at the new Scarborough location, including: • a state-of-the-art Heidelberg Speedmaster CX 102-6+L printing press; • a Heidelberg MK Promatrix 106 CS die-cutter; • a Heidelberg MK Diana Easy folder gluer.

While Jiang says she evaluated other suppliers’ equipment, she was ultimately swayed by Heidelberg’s global reputation as a gold standard for printing and converting machinery, as well as the exceptional service and support offered by the company’s Heidelberg Canada subsidiary nearby in Mississauga.

“Heidelberg manufactures the best printing machines worldwide,” Jiang states, “and their Canadian team have been very professional in assessing and looking after our facility’s needs.

That’s why we chose Heidelberg.”

With lighting-fast printing speeds of 16,500 impressions per hour, the Heidelberg Speedmaster CX 102-6+L is equipped to handle both short runs with quick turnaround and longer-run work, while offering exceptionally short changeover and make-ready times.

With the Heidelberg Speedmaster CX 102-6+L renowned for its user-friendly interfaces—including a PressCenter XL 2 operating system with the Wallscreen XL—jobs are pre-defined as they are output from prepress, which helps to reduce time on job transfer and loading.

Once at the press, the job data concurrently activate a “job change” sequence which may include blanket and roller washes, automatic plate loading with AutoPlate Pro, and spectral color measurement with Prinect AxisControl.

Using top-quality printing inks supplied by Hubergroup Canada Ltd., the Speedmaster press excels at executing many special value-added finishes, flourishes and other special effects during the printing process, according to Jiang.

With ink supplied from Hubergroup Canada, the Heidelberg Speedmaster CX 102-6+L printing press can run six different colors with UV, gloss and matte capabilities.

Producing at speeds of 16,500 impressions per hour, longer runs are not an issue for the Heidelberg Speedmaster CX 102-6+L.

COVER STORY

Widely reknowned as being the finest die-cutting machine in North America, the Heidelberg MK Promatrix 106 CS die-cutter lives up to its reputation thanks to its fully-automated operations and interfaces.

The Heidelberg MK Promatrix 106 CS die-cutter has proven its incomparable need for speed, as it boasts an impressive output capacity of 8,000 sheets per hour.

Spicers Canada ULC, a leading supplier of commercial, specialty and packaging print products, supplies Beneco corrugated (inset) and paperboard packaging.

The Heidelberg MK Promatrix 106 CS die-cutter includes a non-stop feeder, a belt table with suction tapes and central roller and brush adjustment, along with a precision register system up to the stripping station.

“We do run a lot of the UV (ultraviolet) projects and the printing press allows us to do UV, gloss and matte, along with many special effects printed onto the package surfaces,” Jiang extols.

“The machine is so good,” she adds, “that it really brings up our printing quality standard to a much higher level.”

An equivalently significant machine at Beneco is the Heidelberg MK Promatrix 106 CS die-cutter, which has also gathered much praise from many Heidelberg customers as being the finest die-cutting machine in North America.

Boasting output capacity of 8,000 sheets per hour, the MK Promatrix 106 CS diecutter is a highly reliable, fully-automated workhorse outfitted with many highperformance features such as a non-stop feeder; a belt table with suction tapes and central roller and brush adjustment; precision register system up to the stripping station; quick-lock chase and cutting plate fine adjustment in the cutting station; and a quick lock frame with fine adjustment in the stripping station to facilitate short set-up times.

According to Heidelberg, motorized cutting pressure adjustment and non-stop delivery with rolling carpet facilitate a very smooth and comfortable operation to provide the machine operator additional time for production monitoring and quality control.

For its part, the Heidelberg MK Diana folder-gluer is engineered to facilitate user-friendly operation and fast and easy changeover processes, while achieving robust throughput speeds of 300 meters across a broad range of paperboard grades and weights, up to an E-flute of corrugated material, with maximum product lengths of 600-mm.

According to Jiang, all the Heidelberg machines have performed as well as advertised since coming online at the Scarborough plant.

“Our printing quality is a lot better and our production efficiencies have become very good,” she relates.

COVER STORY “These machines really open up our capacity because they are all stateof-the-art, and they are all highly automated and, moreover, it’s all very user-friendly equipment.”

Jiang adds she has been very impressed by the professionalism and expertise of Heidelberg’s Canadian staff, especially with their quick response time during the few instances when the machines were acting up a little.

“At Beneco, we recognize the fact that packaging plays a key role in the overall marketing process. We take the time to clearly understand your brand, and then work with you from start to finish to select the packaging options that bring out your product’s attributes and help to bolster sales.

“And because we are famous for fast turnaround and on time delivery, you can always be sure that even your tightest deadlines will be met.”

While Jiang acknowledges that there are not a bountiful amount of female entrepreneurs running their own businesses in the package printing industry, she sees no reason why this imbalance may not be corrected in the future.

Having made Beneco and SoOPAK.com highly successful enterprises, Jiang hopes that she may inspire many more young female entrepreneurs to take charge of their own fates in the future—in any industry for that matter.

“No matter what you do, you have to work hard and to be able to fight for your work almost everyday,” Jiang advises.

As for her own plans, Jiang says she has her mind set on making Beneco and SoOPAK.com reach their full potential.

“I think that the company is moving in the right direction,” she says, “and while I think there are a lot of things that we need to continuously improve, our goal is very clear.

“We want to be a just-in-time supplier; we want to have more machin-

ery; and we want to be able to deliver our packaging to customer within two weeks of getting the order,” Jiang proclaims.

“As more and more people are continuing to switch away from plastic to paperboard packaging,” she concludes, “we will continue to have a bright future in which Beneco will continue to grow, no doubt about it.”

FOOD SAFETY

LIVE AND LEARN

Product inspection experts start up a hands-on training curriculum to put production line operators at ease with the critical and complex food safety technology

BY GEORGE GUIDONI, EDITOR PHOTOS BY NAOMI HILTZ

A

n investment in knowledge is a must for companies in any line of work in today’s knowledge-based economy. And it’s fair to say that there is no such thing as too much knowledge when it comes to food safety and consumer health and welfare.

But while food manufacturers have never been as spoilt for choice as today in terms of having access to powerful product inspection technologies such as metal detectors and X-Ray inspection systems, there is often a disconnect between what the technologies can deliver and the actual results, according to Larry Swift, co-owner and vice-president of Oakville, Ont.-based product inspection and hygiene systems distributor Shawpak Systems Ltd. “We have found that many operators in the food business don’t fully understand product inspection technology,” says Swift, whose company is the exclusive Canadian agent for METTLER TOLEDO Product Inspection, the world’s leading manufacturer of metal detection, X-Ray inspection and vision technologies for the global food industries.

“Typically a plant engineer would purchase the inspection system, sign off on it, and move on to the next project—leaving people on the production floor to work with it,” says Swift, who has built up a vast knowledge of the subject during his 20-plus years of experience in product inspection systems manufacturing and integration.

“They may receive about two to four hours to learn it all when a technician starts it up after installation,” Swift says, “but that is typically all they get.

“So there is often frustration on the plant floor and people losing faith in the equipment,” Swift states, “which all comes down to not having a complete un-

derstanding the technology and its full functionality.”

To address this knowledge deficit head on, Shawpak Systems has just launched a new series of training programs conducted at the company’s newly-built Centre of Excellence training and demonstration facility in Oakville, offering hands-on training and expert classroom instruction to plant personnel and other end-users of product inspection and hygiene systems.

“We are very passionate about training here at Shawpak,” Swift told Canadian Packaging on a recent visit to the 2,200-square-foot facility equipped with a comprehensive range of advanced METTLER TOLEDO product inspection systems and automatic hygiene equipment ready to perform a broad range of tests and process simulations encountered by front-line plant personnel on daily basis.

“We teach Product Inspection 101, which includes metal-detection, X-Ray, checkweighing and vision technologies,” says Swift, adding all courses are custom-tailored to address the visitors’ specific application requirements.

“We focus on how the technology works, how it detects and why it rejects things, and so on.”

Says Swift: “Educating clients on the fundamental principles of the product inspection equipment and processes is key for food producers to create and maintain a strong food safety program in their facilities.

“Once they obtain that understanding, they will start to see a real change in performance and start realizing ROI (return-on-investment) almost immediately through less downtime and not having to experience the frustration of high false-rejects counts,” says Swift,” citing the company’s authoritative credentials as a certified trainer issued and validated by PMMI-The Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies.

“Many people think that an X-Ray unit is a magic ‘Black Box’ that will detect anything and everything,” Swift relates, “but that’s just not the case.

“It is fundamental to understand the principles of the technology’s operation and the equipment’s limitations,” Swift asserts “which very from one application to the next.”

As Swift explains, the company’s Center of Excellence training and demo facility is designed to put the trained personnel at ease by removing them from the pressurecooker environment of busy production lines in order to absorb the acquired knowledge and information better.

“Before we would typically go to customers’ plants to do the training,” he recalls, “but we often found that there is a problem with the attention span whenever you pull people away from their production line at their work—they just don’t absorb the training as well.

“Here we can give people an opportunity to step away from the production environment and have a hands-on learning experience, without the distraction of what’s going on at their plant, so that they can really focus on understanding the technology from ground up.”

According to Shawpak Systems’ principal trainer Brent Wilkins, a typical training session would last from four to five hours of instruction and product testing for groups of four to six people in a “more intimate and confortable environment so that the

people being trained so can absorb the information better.

“We typically focus on maintenance and quality control personnel,” he says, “and we can customize and tailor a training course specifically to suit their requirements, whether they want to focus solely on X-Ray technology, or if they want to learn about all the different food safety standard levels and how they relate to product inspection … we can tailor to all that.

“We find that once they understand that core knowledge of the technology,” says Wilkins, “they will be able to structure their quality control programs at their facility more effectively.

“Naturally, we are also willing to do any follow-up the may require at their facilities as well.”

Says Wilkins:“Having been in this industry for a long time enables us to be dynamic in our approach.”

This dynamic approach has certainly paid dividends with the Centre of Excellence facility’s first trainee.

Paul Canacas, global market segment manager for food and conveyance with Quadrant Engineering Plastic Products, as well as market segment manager for food and packaging with Quadrant Plastic Composites, says the training he received at the facility in late 2018 was “real eye-opener” for him and his company, which is currently developing a range of metal-detectable plastics that can be used to replace metal parts across a broad range of processing and packaging equipment used in the food industries.

Nowadays operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Mitsubishi Plastics business of Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation, Reading, Pa.-headquartered Quadrant group of companies is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of engineering plastics for a broad range of industries—from aerospace and automotive to industrial equipment and food and beverage.

As Canacas explains, the emerging trend among food processing and packaging machinery manufacturers to incorporate more plastic component into the design of their equipment has created demand for a new range of metal-detectable plastics that can be detected in trace amounts by existing metal detection and X-Ray inspection technology.

According to Canacas, many OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) and their clients increasingly prefer engineered plastics to metal due to the inherent benefits of their lighter weight, which results in reduced energy consumption and the associated reduction in carbon footprint; superior chemical resistance; higher processing speeds; and self-lubricating properties that reduce the risk of dirt accumulation and dust build-up.

“We believe that detectable plastics are the future for global food safety, in terms of both total system performance and overall consumer protection,” says Canacas, citing fast-growing use of plastic equipment components in the food industry, including scrapers, conveyor guide rails, gears wheels, sprockets, grippers, paddles, former plates and other machine parts coming into direct contact with food product.

“Although it’s not mandatory right now, trends in industry regulations indicate a focus on addressing concerns that can be solved best with food-grade plastics for food

handling and conveyance applications,” says Canacas, noting that Quadrant actually supplies METTLER TOLEDO with the plastic parts used in its metal detection systems.

As Canacas relates, making plastics detectable by metal detectors and X-Ray systems is a “complex” scientific endeavour requiring highly precise application and dispersion of various specialty ferrous or nonferrous powdered additives in a perfectly measured and balanced way that “fully respects mechanical properties of the plastic material and the integrity of the machinery.

“Different materials and different resins will accept different amounts of these additives and must therefore be expertly formulated and manufactured to achieve success in the field,” Canacas says.

“It’s critical to consider the big picture, the total system. At Quadrant, we develop materials to solve or prevent issues, so while a material might perform well on paper, we also go to the next step of field-testing it to ensure, let’s say, tht there is no crystallization, which can result in brittleness and cause premature component fatigue.

“This is especially important in busy high line-speed food plants with frequent washdown requirements and other extreme conditions.”

Says Canacas: “It is vitally important for Quadrant to understand the markets to which it is selling its product, and the food business is definitely a high-growth market for us.

“As the population continues to grow and the amount of food being produced to feed it grows accordingly, we are seeing the parameters of machinery being pushed to the limit with faster production speeds, with a higher chance of components fatigues and, consequently, plastic particles getting into the product.”

Adds Swift: “The challenge for Qaudrant is to produce a product that can be detected to avoid complaints from customers about plastic contamination of their food product.

“Hence they have to add special chemical component to the plastic so that the radiation embedded in the product inspection systems can detect it.

“As a rule, plastics are very hard to detect because they don’t have the conductive characteristics to enable reliable and repeatable detection,” Swift says, adding he is proud to count Quadrant as the Center of Excellence’s first full-fledged training client.

As Canacas concurs, the feeling is mutual.

“It was tremendous to see the complexity and continual advancement of the technology,” he states.

“All the variations involved lead to a better understanding in how we can best knowledge share to further optimize the detectability of the materials, adapting to the unique processing requirements, different food densities and so on.

“It was tremendous eye-opener for me to see the complexity of the technology and all the variations involved in understanding how we can make the materials detectable, and how they behave differently with the different kinds of food, different densities and so on.

“It really was an incredible learning experience and a very informative discussion forum,” he adds.“The Shawpak staff are very knowledgeable in this technology and they are always very accessible, a real pleasure to work with.”

In fact, Canacas says he has already enrolled himself to attend a more detailed and advanced training session at METTLER TOLEDO Product Inspection’s international headquarters in Tampa Bay, Fla., this year to expand his knowledge of product inspection further.

“Knowledge is eternal,” he quips, “and I’m eager to take this partnership to the next level.

“A superior understanding of the science of material detection in the food industry is what will continue to keep Quadrant customers optimized, protected and up and running,” Canacas states.

Naturally, such ringing endorsement is music to the ears of Swift, who takes immense pride in being able to complement Shawapak Systems’ vast technical experience to its client base with state-of-the-art METTLER TOLEDO inspection systems, backed up by extensive coast-to-coast technical support offered by the Mississauga, Ont.-headquartered METTLER TOLEDO Canada Inc. Says Swift: “With food safety initiatives increasingly being strengthened by governments through regulations such as Safe Food for Canadians Regulations and the FSMA (Food Suppliers Modernization Act), it is critical that food production facilities take complete ownership of their product inspection systems.

“But having a machine in place is only one part of the puzzle,” Swift concludes.

“It is essential to control the whole process, and with a weak understanding of the technology and all the equipment features, you can’t perform the job correctly.”

PLAYING IT COOL

Montreal entrepreneurs turning ice cream world on its head one scoop at a time with low-calorie recipe and cool packaging execution

BY GEORGE GUIDONI, EDITOR

I

f being cool means standing in a sea of conformity, then the three Montreal-based entrepreneurial bright minds behind Canada’s first national brand of low-calorie ice cream are true masters of the big chill.

Launched a little less than a year ago, the aptly named CoolWay range of ice cream is nothing less than a dream come true for countless Canadian consumers who love the taste of high-quality ice cream but dread the high calorie count and fat intake associated with one of the world’s most popular and universally beloved desserts.

Developed as a “guilt-free” alternative to conventional ice cream products by long-time buddies Benjamine Outmezguine, Noah Bernett and Dino Vassiliou, CoolWay ice-cream is actually a triumphant remake of the trio’s earlier creation called CoolWhey, which was high-protein frozen dairy treat intended for sale at fitness centers, health clubs and vitamin stores as a post-workout supplement.

While that product received a fair bit of media attention and notoriety with the founders’ appearance on the popular Dragon’s Den television series of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC), the costs and logistics of making in it widely available in its intended frozen format at limited points-of-sale put breaks on further market development.

Undaunted, the three company founders turned the initial setback into an opportunity by reformulating their product to appeal to a far larger mainstream audience, while retaining the product’s high protein

content.

“But we quickly realized through in-store demos that the mainstream market was mostly interested in the low-calorie aspect of our products,” CoolWay co-founder Benjamine Outmezguine told Canadian Packaging in a recent interview.

“That’s when we asked Richard, our product developer and partner, to go back in the kitchen and come up with the best-tasting low-calorie ice cream he could possibly make,” says Outmezguine, noting it took about nine months of intense product development to obtain the right texture and taste profile,

PACKAGE DESIGN along with remarkably low calorie count.

“We have removed most of the calories, fat and sugar from traditional ice cream while keeping that premium and rich taste,” he says, “so that anyone who want to indulge a bit without all the guilt can do so any time they wish.”

Already retailing across Canada in seven different flavors, the CoolWay brand contains only 280 to 360 calories per a full 500-ml “pint” tub—a stunningly low total that is proudly displayed as a primary graphic on each of the brand’s different flavors in the center of the cylindrical tubs.

Produced in strict accordance to CoolWay’s safeguarded recipe, the novel ice-cream also packs 28 grams of protein and a healthy helping of fiber in each 500-ml tub, while containing 50 per cent less sugar than most established ice cream brands in the market.

Offering one-year shelf-life, the CoolWay brand has been quickly picked up by leading national grocers such as in Walmart, Metro, IGA and Whole Foods, among others, where its cheerful light-blue package design adorned with playful graphics of ice cream scoops floating in mid-air has made a huge impact with the consumers.

“The ice cream category is a very competitive space where big companies spend big bucks to remain on the shelves, as well as on advertising Outmezguine states.

“To compete against them, you absolutely need to have the better product, a better story, and better packaging.”

Says Outmezguine: “Before launching the CoolWay brand, we knew that we were onto something special and that we needed very strong packaging to communicate the right messages to consumers.

To get the packaging and story-telling just right, CoolWay approached Montreal-based packaged deign and branding services specialists Bo Branding & Design Ltd., which has built up an impressive body of work over the years for multiple clients in the dairy and other CPG (consumer packaged goods) industries.

“After looking at Bo Branding’s impressive portfolio, we knew that they were the right partner to create something truly special for us,” Outmezguine relates.

As he recalls, the three CoolWay founders were keen to retain the original light-blue background from the original CoolWhey packaging as a key common branding template for all flavor varieties, while playing up the product’s health attributes in light-hearted style with clean, engaging graphics and fonts.

CoolWay co-founder Benjamine Outmezguine (left) says he was so impressed by the high quality of packaged design work done

by Marc Beauregard (right) and his Bo Branding team for his brand’s 500-ml pint tubs that he also selected the agency to design packaging for the company’s new range of frozen bars that it plans to launch across Canada later this year.

“The keywords that we used at the start of the project were ‘indulgent,’ ‘calorie-focused,’ and ‘blue,’ which was the legacy colour from our previous brand,” Outmezguine explains.

“We went with our legacy blue (Pantone 3115 C for life) from our previous CoolWhey brand because it’s friendly, approachable, and also one of our trademarks,” he states. “It also has this pastel nostalgic feel to it.

“We also wanted to go with modern, clear and professional fonts that would represent us as a brand,” Outmezguine elaborates, “and we wanted to include fun elements like falling ice cream scoops and spoons to add to the ‘funness’ of our packaging.”

SWEET SPOT Over about five months, Bo Branding patiently proceeded nearly 40 different prototypes of the new packaging graphics, Outmezguine relates, before nailing the ultimate packaging “sweet spot.”

As he recalls, “The consumers and our clients loved CoolWay’s packaging from the first day we announced it!

“It is blue, it is approachable and, above all, it is fun,” Outmezguine extols, while also crediting the company’s packaging supplier Stanpac of Smithville, Ont., for exemplary service in supplying the sturdy, fully-recyclable paperboard pint tubs and plastic lidding incorporating tamper-evident safety seals.

All in all, Outmezguine says he was highly impressed with Bo Branding’s professionalism and creativity that are aptly reflected in the final packaging execution.

“It’s never easy to create new packaging in Canada,” he says, “due to the unique challenges that we face because of the two-language (English and French) requirements.

“But with Bo being a local [Montreal-based] agency, they are very familiar with the process and all the best practices.

“Thanks to that knowledge, we were able to fit everything on our front panel in a nice and functional way, while still having room for a second ‘benefits’

section.”

Says Outmezguine: “Bo Branding handled our packaging from A to Z and they did an amazing job … we could not be happier with the result.

“The entire process was a pleasure—they always listened well to our feedback, acted quickly to respond, and they have great taste and,” he quips.

“If I had to rate their success, I’d give them a solid 10 out of 10,” says Outmezguine, adding that CoolWay has also recently engaged Bo Branding to develop packaging for the new range of CoolWay ice cream bars that the company plans to launch in Canada later this year, along with seven new flavor varieties.

“They did a fantastic adaptation of our pint design for our new ice cream bars,” he confides, “and we were also very pleased with the limited-edition packaging that they created with us for the [past Christmas] holidays.

As Outmezguine sums up, “When you compete in the CPG space, your product is everything: taste first and packaging second.

“In this light, the packaging created for us by Bo Branding is a big contributor to our success to date,” he states, “and I think it has successfully set the tone for our branding going forward.

“We plan to use this structure for all CoolWay’s future products and innovations,” he says, “because it really stands out in the freezer and it’s great at creating brand uniqueness and loyalty.

“We don’t go plan to go for the conservative corporate look simply because that is not who we are,” Outmezguine concludes.

“We are part of the new generation of ‘better-foryou’ foods made by real people who have a real story to share.”

CANNABIS FOR A CAUSE High-speed digital label printer ignites steady production for innovative cannabis production plant

S

ince its legalization back in October, the demand for cannabis in the market has been at an all-time high.

While legalizing cannabis has opened the door for a number of different markets, Peterborough, Ont.-based Canveda aims to make a prominent name for itself in the medicinal marijuana sector.

“I think in every business you have to find a niche that can separate yourself from your competition and focus on your niche to become the best in that,” Michael Arnkvarn, executive vice-president and chief operating officer of MPXI Canada and Canveda, says.

“Medicinal cannabis is the niche that we’re going to have for this facility.”

Bought by MPX Bioceutical Corporation back in June 2018, Canveda, with approval from the CRA (Canada Revenue Agency) and Health Canada, is currently starting production and will be producing about 30 different strains.

“Obviously you want to have different strains to try and differentiate yourself as a cannabis producer versus your competitors,” Arnkvarn explains.

“Our philosophy is to focus more on producing finished products, in addition to

In compliance with Health Canada’s laws regarding packaging and labeling cannabis products, Arnkvarn and his team purchased a Kiaro!

producing specialized products.

“Canveda has a joint venture with the largest cannabis Pharmafarm producer in the world from Israel, Panaxia and we’ll be producing products with them together.

Says Arnkvarn: “We’re really going to keep a very medical approach.”

While this facility produces only flower, Arnkvarn says that this will not be the way that the Canadian cannabis market will continue in, as there will be a demand for other specialized cannabis products in the likes of oils and edibles, which will be allowed to sell in Oct. 2019.

“If we look at the history of the cannabis markets in the U.S., typically when a new market starts, it’s almost 80 per cent flower, and very few derivatives,” Arnkvarn told Canadian Packaging on a recent plant visit.

“As the market matures, the cannabis market will see that flower consumption will go way down and the other products are going to go up.”

Cannabis warning labels must include a number of different information, including product description, THC and CBD content, potential allergens and varied warnings in a yellow box.

Whether packaging flower or edibles, all cannabis products must be packaged in the same way.

According to a lengthy report from Health Canada, all cannabis products must abide by a number of strict packaging and labeling laws since marijuana became legal.

The report states that the packaged cannabis requires a long list of information about the product, which include the name and contact information of the processor, product description, THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) and CBD (Cannabidiol) content in a distinct red color, potential allergens and the statement “Keep out of reach of children.”

Packaging would also have to include a “universal symbol” denoting that it is a cannabis product, as well as a health-warning message inside a yellow box printed in the largest font on the label.

One of Canveda’s lead growers fills a pre-rolled crown with the help of a Futurola Knockbox 2 + Standard Filling Kit, supplied by Cannabis production powerhouse Futurola Amsterdam prior to labeling the finished products.

Canveda’s priority is to serve struggling veterans and to further develop that niche for producing medical marijuana to those suffering from PTSD and other illnesses.

In a similar fashion to cigarettes boxes, the warning messages on the cannabis products alternate between phrases such as “Cannabis smoke is harmful,” “Do not use if pregnant or breastfeeding” or “Regular use of cannabis can increase the risk of psychosis and schizophrenia.”

With a background in natural food health and producing lots of products, Arnkvarn’s instinctual train of thought was to get a color printer and have the labels made promptly, in-house.

After being reminded about the precise regulations surrounding packaging and labeling cannabis, Arnkvarn had to look no further than his influx of unread emails.

“Timing is everything in life,” Arnkvarn enlightens.

“I get hundreds of emails a day from people trying to sell me different products.”

One of those fated unread emails came from data visualization technology specialists AstroNova Inc., who were pitching their Kiaro! QL-120 professional tabletop digital label printer from their QuickLabel subsidiary.

After responding to the email, Arnkvarn was able to address what his facility needed in terms of label printing and a sales rep quickly made a visit to the facility and presented the label printer to Arnkvarn and his team. They were immediately convinced that this was the printer for Canveda.

“It’s an essential item, you cannot package and you cannot function without it.

“Emails do pay off,” Arnkvarn adds with a laugh.

With its original launch back in 2018, the QL-120

“The QL-120 gives us the flexibility and the ability to change the information as needed.”

Asked if they would consider buying from AstroNova in the future, Arnkvarn says with a smile, “When you find suppliers that you’re happy with, you don’t change.”

While he does not want to change his supplier, one thing that Arnkvarn would like to change is the public’s perception on PTSD (Post-traumatic stress disorder) seen in veterans.With their lead grower a veteran, the cause is near and dear to Canveda.

“When we talk about PTSD and other mental illnesses, PTSD is more people perceive that as a psychological fallout from somebody in the army, but that’s not really true.”

Canveda supports and promotes a group called Spartan Wellness, which is a network comprised of veterans, physicians, specialists and other support teams that work to help other veterans recover from opioid addictions and the often-tragic repercussions of PTSD. A fundamental element of the program includes converting the struggling veterans away from opioids and towards medicinal cannabis, which Canveda provides them.

has already made a positive impression on customers in a number of different sectors.

Having been applauded for its network-friendly printer operations and a compact design, the QL-120 manufactures premium 1200 x 1200 dpi (dots per inch) color labels in a timely and cost-effective method.

Offering flexible print widths that are unmatched in the industry, the QL-120 enables Arnkvarn and his team to print labels as narrow as 0.5” or as wide as 4.2” on the same device.

Thanks to a function-rich Windows operating interface, completely integral utility and status monitoring software, the QL-120 helps users to straightforwardly and tenuously manage printer setup and operation.

In addition, the QL-120 also features self-maintenance during the printing process, which has resulted in the highest quality printed labels with little to no user intervention.

Having had the QL-120 installed at the plant for a little over a month, a professional graphic artist is in charge of designing the labels to the government’s strict requirements.

Arnkvarn also shares that Canveda benefits from the label printer’s welladapted settings and ability to provide them with different label sizes.

While Canveda currently produces only flower, they will in the future begin to produce other specialized cannabis products such as oils and edibles, as the cannabis market will have a higher demand for it once these derivatives become legalized in October 2019.

Medical marijuana has been shown to be an effective source of treatment for different mental and physical conditions, such as depression, anxiety and cancer.

Recognized as veterans helping veterans, the Spartan Wellness program acts as not only an economical solution for struggling veterans, but also a social one.

Explaining that after the members of Spartan Wellness saw a number of their members commit suicide

as a result of their opioid addictions and mental health, Arnkvarn says that introducing cannabis conversion therapy to the veterans has been promising.

“Ever since they have been able to convert the veterans to cannabis, Spartan Wellness has had great success in reducing opioid addiction,” Arnkvarn extols.

“Medicinal cannabis allows the veterans to function in society and become functioning human be-

ings again so it’s really cool and with that, we’re going to initiate different studies on PTSD and the effects of cannabis.”

While Canveda stands at a mere 12,000-square-feet with plans to add a number of trimmers and machines, there are no immediate plans to expand the facility.

Arnkvarn explains that the focus of Canveda as a business is not to compete with big name cannabis production corporations, but instead to focus on the needs and the accommodations of the veterans in the Spartan program.

After the tragic bus crash in Ottawa at the beginning of the year, Canveda would like to expand the Spartan Wellness group not just to veterans, but also to first responders and police officers who are also experiencing PTSD. Arnkvarn says that the goal is to have medical cannabis become much more mainstream.

“We’re really just going to use this facility to fulfill the needs of our veteran group,” Arnkvarn says.

“We really want to stress that this is veteran grown for veterans, and by veterans.”

BREWERY UPGRADES TO HIGH-EFFICIENCY, DRY-RUNNING CANNING LINE

M

ADTREE Brewery in Cincinnati, Ohio wished to expand their original 2013 can line (24 cans per minute). Based on the hands-on approach and positive feedback from other brewers, MADTREE chose to work with Regal® to expanded. Now, the packaging line runs 250 cans per minute. A video about the expansion can be viewed on the Regal Beloit YouTube channel.

With the team at Regal, the initial conveyor run-in was able to start up quickly and smoothly, and start selling cases within one month. A year before startup of the expansion, Regal assisted in equipment selection, conveyor/component design, layout simplification, OEM “Final Acceptance Testing”, and onsite installation support, which continued through start up and run in.

A bundle of parts was selected, all manufactured by Regal family brands, making it easy for the customer to acquire from one source. These products include System Plast® NGE modular belts and Nolu®-S wear strips, Sealmaster® bearings, Hub City™ Hera® gearboxes, and LEESON® motors.

These products optimize efficiency and result in a 100% dry running conveyor line, providing both production efficiency and sustainability.

One successful upgrade was developing a streamlined transition from packaging line conveyors to a key piece of equipment, by designing, building and integrating a System Plast custom side transfer module into the equipment. This created a smooth transfer eliminating jamming and down cans. Another key component during the install was a punch list to identify potential installation issues and recommended corrective actions before start-up, saving significant time during run-in. The Regal team made the complex simple for MADTREE, who now have an efficient, smooth running packaging line that will be relatively maintenance free for the long term, with higher yield and faster throughput, and allow them to conduct business in a sustainable and environmentally-friendly way.

COURAGE AND LEADERSHIP

Purpose and innovation driving brand competition in digital era

A

s today’s Millennials and Generation Z continue to accelerate the changes in the way we shop, what we eat and how we live, the whole narrative of what brands must deliver to modern-day consumers has undergone profound transformation in a very brief time frame.

Gone are the days of purchase patterns being influenced by demographics alone. Millennials and Generation Z are consuming in the unprecedented new age of technology disruption, where decisions are being made not solely by price, but by personal alignment with brands and their visions.

Beyond the path to purchase, these new consumers are publicly documenting their journey with products on the world stage through their social media streams—constantly challenging CPG (consumer packaged goods) brand-owners on their impact and reach.

With new concepts such as circular economy, zero plastics waste, omnichannel retail and asset digitization now part of everyday conversation in the packaging industry, retailers and brand-owners are deploying dedicated rapid response teams that seem to innovate at the speed of light—showing courageous leadership in their quest to stay relevant.

In this light, we are proud to present the second annual edition of our PAC Connect magazine—featuring PAC member thought-leaders providing their insights on relevant industry issues.

Our cover this year features the Roxy Hotel Theater, in the Tribeca neighborhood of New York City, where we will host our ONEof100 Summit on February 26, 2019. (It’s not too late to book a ticket!)

Now in the fourth year of our PAC Global Leadership Awards competition, we are thrilled to be staging our showcase of breakthrough packaging innovation in New York City—the true epicenter of FMCG (fast-moving consumer goods) manufacturers and their brand agencies.

To that end, we have created the ONEof100 Summit not just as an occasion to celebrate these winners, but also to educate our audience about the dynamic changes impacting the value chain of the packaging sector—in hopes of inspiring attendees with answers and insights into some of the most difficult questions facing brands today.

More than ever before, PAC remains steadfast in our goal to continue to innovate and grow our offerings for members.

Events like ONEof100, and our annual awards celebration, present a unique opportunity for our members from across the value chain to come together and build critical relationships.

Kicking off the summit, fresh from his high profile announcement with several prominent global brand CEOs at last month’s World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, is Tom Szaky, a brilliant millennial thought leader who is arguably one of the most creative waste management experts of our time.

Founder of the world-renowned upcycling pioneer TerraCycle, Szaky will talk about his latest disruptive reusable

PAC CONNECT 2019

CPACK_JAN_FEB19_BAS.indd 45

packaging initiative called Loop—a circular shopping platform that transforms the packaging of your everyday essentials from single-use disposable to durable, feature-packed designs.

Already, Loop has drawn references to being “the milkman reimagined,” honoring our past from a modern perspective by championing a sustainable approach to packaging—with a distinct vision of partnering with the world’s biggest brands to reduce packaging waste.

Also making an appearance at ONEof100, and featured in the pages of this year’s PAC Connect, are packaging experts from Procter & Gamble (P&G), the recognized leader in CPG innovation who will discuss their game-changing sustainable package innovations targeted at the e-commerce buyers.

With the conversation no longer limited about how the consumer products perform on traditional store-shelves, there is an urgent imperative for new unique approaches to positioning products for a digital landscape serving the fastgrowing online audience.

To that end, prominent thought leader Aidan Tracy of sgsco will discuss his insights on the unfolding ‘Big Shift’ from Point of Sale to Moment of Sale mindset. As the path to purchase has changed and prominent brands are finding out the hard way that focusing on producing state-of-the-art packaging for store shelves is no longer enough, brands must act quickly to devote more resources to the e-commerce world, where physical store shelves are no longer the critical point-of-sale.

With this year’s edition, we have also endeavoured to showcase the type of leadership required in this new era with an ever-changing consumer landscape. Brands like Nespresso, focused on ethical living, and TC Transcontinental, a company that has undergone a transformation from being Canada’s largest printer to becoming a North American leader in flexible packaging, show the importance of courage, commitment and collaboration to attain successful brand leadership in 2019.

As a parting note, I would like to extend sincere gratitude to our wonderful event and publication sponsors, without whom none of this would have been possible.

To that end, a big ‘Thank You!’ to platinum ONEof100 Summit sponsor, sgsco, and silver sponsors, Atlantic Packaging Products Ltd. and Cambridge Label Inc. We also hope you enjoy the cover design created by Anthem, as well as the considerable effort by the Canadian Packaging magazine for producing and distributing the PAC Connect publication for our great PAC members.

Consumer goods stalwart leveraging cutting-edge packaging innovation to fuel rapid sales growth in burgeoning online retail markets

BY GEORGE GUIDONI, EDITOR

I

f being able to translate consumer desires into new products lies at the core of genuine product innovation, according to leading consumer goods multinational Procter & Gamble (P&G), North American consumers have a lot of eureka moments and experiences to look forward to in coming months and years.

Although the venerable Cincinnati, Ohio-headquartered consumer packaged goods (CPG) powerhouse has long been revered for cutting-edge product development and general packaging excellence, the unfolding global boom in e-commerce and online shopping seems to have P&G reaching for the stars with game-changing package design strategies breathing new vitality and vigour into iconic stalwart brands such as Tide, Dawn and Old Spice, with many more slated to follow suit.

“P&G is designing with what the e-commerce channel is bringing to the table for all of us,” say Ken McGuire, a research fellow at P&G with 53 issued

4 www.pac.ca

CPACK_JAN_FEB19_BAS.indd 46

U.S. patents to his name, including the new awardwinning AeroFlexx liquid filling technology that could completely revolutionize the way that liquid products of all types are packaged and shipped across global markets.

“It (e-commerce) brings tremendous growth opportunities,” McGuire says, “but it also brings challenges that maybe were not being addressed as effectively before, but rather remedied with ‘Band-Aid’ solutions.

“As the channel becomes more important to our consumers, our growth and our bottom line, we have instituted a number of programs that are e-commerce directed to improve our consumer experience and our ability to profitably withstand the new distribution channel challenges.”

With online sales of consumer product in North America widely projected to grow by up to 30 per cent annually over the next few years, P&G has already established itself as an early major CPG pacesetter in the burgeoning new distribution channel driven by soaring demand for greater consumer con-

Procter and Gamble’s research fellow Ken McGuire, who holds 53 U.S.-issued patents, played an insturmental role in the development of AeroFlexx liquid filling technology.

2019 venience and product accessibility.

Recording net sales of US$66.8 billion for fiscal 2018, P&G saw its online revenues soar by 30 percent to nearly US$4.5 billion during the year—approaching seven percent of total sales—prompting the company to accelerate the development of more e-commerce-friendly packaging formats and structures.

Late last year, P&G launched a new ultra-concentrated Tide liquid detergent in an all-new Eco-Box container—measuring roughly the size of a standard shoebox—designed exclusively for e-commerce distribution.

Weighing less than eight pounds, the compact size of the patented Eco-Box bagin-box package was designed to provide an attractive space-saving option for urban consumers with tight living quarters, with the added bonus of vastly improved packaging sustainability.

Containing enough liquid detergent for 96 loads of laundry, the Eco-Box package contains 30 percent less water that the 96-load jugs retailed at traditional brick-and-mortar outlets, while weighing four pounds less and using 60 percent less plastic.

According to P&G’s brand manager for e-commerce Isaac Hellemn, “If everyone who buys the 96-load plastic bottle of Tide switched to the Tide Eco-Box, we could save enough plastic to cover 5,000 football fields each year.”

Designed specifically to facilitate efficient shipping and stacking, the new package largely eliminates the need for extra wrapping and padding material like bubble wrap, according to P&G, resulting in far less packaging waste that ultimately ends up in landfills.

And because the package weighs a third less than the comparable traditional plastic jugs, the savings achieved in lower shipping costs allow for the Tide EcoBox package to be listed at the same suggested retail price of US$19.99 as the traditional 96-load plastic jugs—providing a win-win proposition for the target

consumer audience.

“The Tide Eco-Box is a combination of product and packaging innovation,” states Brent Heist, head of P&G’s Global Packaging Sustainability team in Cincinnati.

“Being a more concentrated product plays exceptionally well for e-commerce insofar as carrying less of a packaging footprint per use, without sacrificing quality of Tide performance benefits for the consumers,” Heist points out.

RISING TIDE “We were also able to incorporate a lot of consumer convenience features, like a no-drip twist-tap that provides carefully controlled dosing for the consumers,” Heist explains, “while the built-in feet at the bottom of the box enables you the to raise the box just right to get the dosing cup underneath the dispensing tap if you’re dosing on a flat surface.

“All of these things may seem small separately,” Heist says, “but putting them together allowed us to give consumers a real ‘delight of use’ experience.

“All in all, we think it’s a more user-friendly packaging alternative to simply shipping a standard lidded bottle surrounded by protective packaging that most consumers often perceive as waste.”

While the Tide Eco-Box packaging was designed specifically for e-commerce retailing, McGuire points out that addressing the new distribution and other challenges unveiled by the e-commerce boom is now an integral part of the thought process guiding all new packaging development at P&G. “The packages we have designed in the past to look wonderful and perform well in the brick-and-mortar environment may not require the same characteristics for traveling through the e-commerce supply chain,” McGuire explains.

One of the more notable recent packaging successes unveiled at P&G has been

www.pac.ca 5

2019-02-12 11:45 AM

2019 the swift commercialization of the aforementioned AeroFlexx liquid filling technology, in which McGuire played a central role.

Already adopted for the company’s bestselling Dawn brand of dishwashing detergent and the Old Spice body wash line, the breakthrough technology uses compressed gas to achieve sufficient tailored rigidity to create firm structure in flexible films— eliminating the need for a traditional plastic bottle altogether.

By utilizing a proprietary one-way valve, the new flexible packaging format also facilitates cleaner dispensing, more controlled dosing and more convenient one-handed use, according to P&G, while still remaining tough enough for e-commerce shipping without extra protection.

Moreover, the AeroFlexx packaging uses 50 per cent less plastic than a traditional rigid plastic bottle and offers a 360-palette for branding and other for design graphics—making it a more resource-efficient solution.

TOTAL WIN-WIN As a genuinely disruptive packaging innovation that earned the coveted Diamond Award at last year’s 30th annual Awards for Packaging Innovation competition of The Dow Chemical Company.

More recently, the AeroFlexx Dawn brand pack was picked as a finalist in two categories—including Best of Show—in the 2019 PAC Global Leadership Awards competition of PAC Packaging Consortium, with winners to be announced at a special gala ceremony following PAC’s upcoming ONEof100 Summit packaging innovation forum in New York City on Feb. 26, 2019.

Says PAC president and chief executive officer James Downham: “Not only is AeroFlexx an exceptionally clever technology, it facilitates for creation of an incredibly sustainable package that also effectively addresses the e-commerce distribution channel requirements.

“It literally checks off every box on the good packaging idea checklist,” Downham extols, “making it a very special entry in our Global Leadership Awards competition.”

Acknowledging the disruptive nature of the AeroFlexx omnichannel flexible packaging solution, “It is actually intended to be an e-commerce option for all the bottles we sell one day,” McGuire proclaims.

“I can’t say for sure if we’ll get there eventually,” he allows, “but if it’s a better solution, why not give it a try?”

For his part, Heist says he has been very encouraged by the feedback to AeroFlexx packaging gathered through extensive market research conducted by

6 www.pac.ca

CPACK_JAN_FEB19_BAS.indd 48

P&G prior to the launch.

“As with all new disruptive technologies, it can be polarizing,” Heist relates.

“Many people loved it, some people didn’t, but in the end it really comes down to the quality of brand execution, which I think we have done pretty well based on online reviews and other social media feedback.” he says.

“The people who tend to love this type of package are typically the younger, more experiential consumers more willing to try new things,” Heist expands.

“The Old Spice brand has been extremely well-received in the new packaging format,” Heist confides, “and even for the Dawn brand, our average online star rating is about 4.2 out of five,” Heist confides.

Both Heist and McGuire point out that as younger consumers continue to become better educated on sustainability issues, they are starting to appreciate the fact that flexible packaging is not the environmental villain that it is often portrayed to be in mainstream media.

“A proper Life-Cycle Analysis (LCA) will show that that this new package blows the bottle away just on the material usage alone, which is the most critical part of the LCA,” McGuire asserts.

“It’s a classic case of perception versus reality.”

Says McGuire: “The popular consumer perception is that because these flexible packages do not always have recycling streams, like curbside pick-ups, they are not as environmentally-friendly as the plastic bottles.

“But that’s just not the reality,” he sates.

“One of the tings you will see in coming years is that these [flexible] materials will actually find their way into recycling streams because the demand is getting bigger and better,” McGuire argues.

“We are testing pilot programs and working on technologies that address all of the things that are claimed to be environmental shortcoming of flexible packaging.”

Adds Heist: “The AeroFlexx flexible packaging works well with younger consumers due to the intersection of technology development and fuller consumer understanding of the issue at hand.

“We can’t sell a new technology to consumers unless it’s meaningful to them, and sustainability is a massive part of that connection.

“That’s why our technology development is so closely tied to understanding what delights consumers and deliver on that demand—starting with the brands that we believe you think will deliver the greatest payoff.”

For McGuire, the ongoing efforts by P&G to lightweight its products for e-commerce applications to reduce shipping costs is perfectly synched with the

Brent Heist, the head of P&G’s Global Packaging Sustainability team, was one of featured speakers at PAC’s well-attended PAC to the Future II conference in Montreal last fall.

company’s large sustainability efforts in packaging and other key links in the supply chain.

“One of the things that P&G and other companies will continue to address is shipping costs,” McGuire states.

COST CONTROL “We are used to designing wonderful looking packages that draw people’s attention when thy are walking down the store aisle and when they take it home, but if you are paying to have those same items shipped through online retailing you may not necessarily make the best use of the space available to you,” he says.

“It is a challenge that many CPGs, P&G included, will continue to grapple with to address the different demands of e-commerce distribution for some time yet,” McGuire predicts.

“So while I like to think that our e-commerce-directed innovation program is ahead of the curve, it’s certainly not complete, but we are heading down the right path,” he says.

McGuire also notes that this disruptive game-changing AeroFlexx technology will be rapidly commercialized by Chicago-based Innventure, a team of experienced professionals with a history of entrepreneurship that partners with Fortune 100 firms.

“Innventure will scale this technology under a global licensing arrangement to make this an industry play that is not limited to P&G,” says McGuire.

“AeroFlexx is quickly gaining traction across a broad range of customers, brands and categories,” says Cedric Dsouza, chief technology officer for Innventure AeroFlexx.

“Based on the needs of our customers and their supply chains, our planning stance is to design and offer commercial executions of this technology to the industry via a menu of three options,” he explains.

“We will start by filling pouches for customers on a contract manufacturing basis,” he relates, “and we will then evolve to selling pre-made pouches that a firm can fill at their site on AeroFlexx fill/seal equipment.

“We will then advance to selling roll stock that a firm can put through AeroFlexx form/fill/seal equipment that it installs.”

SEIZING THE MOMENT

Digital disruption driving brand-owners to reassess branding and package design strategies to own the coveted Moment of Sale Aidan Tracey, chief executive officer of sgsco,delivering a presentation on the Moment of Sale at a recent L2 Omnichannel event.

BY MICHAEL GRADY

H

ow do you define a package? The package is now more than a carton, flexible pouch, bottle, can or other product container with a printed label found on a shelf in a retail store.

Think about it again in the context of an omnichannel shopper.

What is a package? The package is media. It is working hard to communicate your brand’s value and promise to shoppers.

In many ways, the package sits at the center of the evolving marketing mix.

It’s working around the clock to tell your brand story and convert sales whether on shelf in a store, featured on a billboard, in a product listing on a dotcom, in an Instagram post viewed on your phone, in the spotlight for three seconds at the end of an ad that interrupts a Hulu or Netflix binge, or available by food delivery app—just before the end of the big game being broadcasted live on YouTube TV. It’s clear that our world is becoming increasingly digital.

The path to purchase has changed and many prominent brands are finding out the hard way that continuing to produce state-of-the-art packaging to help their flagship products fly off store shelves is no longer enough.

Brands must now also devote resources for the digital world, where in the context of online shopping, physical store shelves are no longer the point of sale.

Digital disruption is rapidly shifting the narrative from brands winning ‘Where?’ the consumer makes their purchase decisions (Point of Sale), to ‘How?’ consumers are making their purchase decisions (Moment of Sale).

In this new world, the ‘package’ and its associated digital art files take on an

8 www.pac.ca

CPACK_JAN_FEB19_BAS.indd 50

even greater level of importance to help companies deliver better, faster and leaner omnichannel solutions into the marketplace.

According to sgsco chief executive officer Aidan Tracey, “This shift from the point of sale to the Moment of Sale is all about addressing today’s reality of where people are making their purchase, which is with smart phones, anytime, anywhere, with 24/7 availability.

“How consumers are shopping for their goods, researching, procuring and receiving their goods has undergone a dramatic shift which will rapidly continue in the future.”

Today’s omnichannel consumer expects that their needs will be put first. If a product is purchased, it is by the terms of the individual consumer rather than those of the retailer.

Accordingly, brands and retailers are changing to account for consumer expectations.

Putting the consumer first is key to winning in the omnichannel world. Successfully navigating retailer and e-commerce platforms is another important achievement. Consider the following omnichannel challenges: • Differentiated E-commerce Experiences. Retailers are creating differentiated experiences on their proprietary platforms. Brands must not only know the nuances of each, but they must efficiently create, manage and distribute the right content to each.

• Listing vs Selling. Online sales are increasing in nearly every category. It used to be a good start to create a product listing. Brands need to be keenly aware of whether they are actually driving sales for their product or merely

PAC CONNECT 2019

2019-02-12 11:45 AM

2019 creating a listing. If you’re not selling, your brand may fall victim to algorithms that give your competition advantages during search.

• Advertising. Retail dotcoms are now advertising platforms. Not only must brands list and sell their product, but they must also create online billboards that build brand awareness, convert sales and fend off competition.

• Efficiency Incentives. Retailers are rolling out incentives for brands to conform to best practices that reduce packaging waste and improve efficiency. The penalty for non-compliance will cost brands in the short term, despite long-term benefits for stakeholders. The greatest opportunity for brands is to use the packaging as a communication tool and brand building platform.

• Social Commerce. The largest social platforms have begun incorporating options for brands to sell products directly from social posts. This keeps purchasing simple for the consumer and bypasses retailers altogether.

Disruptive brands have proven to be fierce competitors developing and executing winning sales strategies that are built for today’s consumer preferences and digital and social platforms.

Some brands, existing only online, are bestsellers that have toppled long-standing traditional retail category leaders. With hundreds of thousands of followers, these brands are positioned to continue to win as more sales move to digital.

Successful online brands are even making their way into stores and capturing more market share. Brands must take action to protect market share and more importantly to drive sales growth.

To address the big shift from Point of Sale to the Moment of Sale, focus on improving your integrated solution by optimizing for omnichannel package design and digital graphics.

By leveraging the power of the Digital Art File created within a design-toprint workflow, brands can amplify production to efficiently produce physical packaging, print and digital POS/media, as well as branded digital content that is optimized for e-commerce and social media.

Evolving from a design-to-print workflow to a design-to-consumer workflow unlocks the power of the package to drive a synchronized experience across all touchpoints with significant efficiencies necessary to keep pace with the new, ever-faster digital economy.

By expanding an integrated solution to include more than print, brands are able to become better, faster and leaner.

PAC CONNECT 2019

CPACK_JAN_FEB19_BAS.indd 51

Consider the following: • CGI (Computer Generated Imagery). The Digital Art File is used to create foundational CGI assets. These assets are created as part of the packaging pipeline and are key to consistently producing high-quality, photorealistic pack shots. A standard product view bundle meets the needs of all partners for e-commerce, retailer marketing and shelf set planograms.

• Optimized Content. Optimized content addresses how people are shopping on mobile phones. Both the Digital Art File and CGI are keys to optimized content. Imagery that is created with a screen in mind helps consumers easily understand a product’s unique selling proposition.

• Agile Content.With the core CGI asset as the foundation for content creation, fuel social engagement by delivering an array of lifestyle and insituation visuals.

• Synchronized Data. Deliver brand visuals and product data to all appropriate retailers. Make sure your data is accessible for retailers, retail service providers, e-commerce, internal use, application developers and others within an increasingly complex digital ecosystem.

As sgsco’s chief marketing officer and president of digital Rob McCarthy explains, “Consumers expect easy access to detailed product information, such as pack images, infographics, image tiles, mobile images, relative-size imagery and video, to make informed buying decisions.

“We are now starting to see tangible and quantifiable evidence of the impact that optimizing product content and engaging e-commerce experiences have had on brand sales.”

Just as consumers today are looking at packaging differently, brands must also look at packaging in a new way.

The package is at the center of the marketing mix and it’s important to ensure it is properly leveraged to produce content for an omnichannel world.

Leading brands are evaluating branding and package design strategies and aggressively implementing workflow improvements to synchronize branding and packaging across the physical and digital shelves.

As brands become better, faster and leaner, they are in a position to meet consumer expectations at the Moment of Sale.

Brands are also able to rapidly implement ideas that drive growth and, rather than fending off startups, they are the brands to watch—agile, winning everywhere a purchase can be made; and innovative, capable of marketplace disruption.

THE PERKS OF LEADERSHIP Leading coffee producer spares no effort to lessen the carbon footprint and negative perception of single-serve coffee capsules

BY GEORGE GUIDONI, EDITOR

f the much-lauded Circular Economy model of waste-free packaging design and reuse ever needed a corporate poster child to inspire consumer product companies to step up their sustainability efforts, then the multinational coffee giant Nespresso would be a fitting choice by any objective measure.

As a company that introduced the world’s first single-serve coffee machine back in 1986, the Swissheadquartered coffee producer has naturally endured plenty of environmentalist backlash in the last decade over the alleged ecological crises caused by surging worldwide production of single-serve coffee capsules.

But despite widespread vilification of single-serve coffee pods as one of the worst excesses of unnecessary packaging waste messing up recycling streams and overwhelming landfills, the growing popularity and sales of this consumer-friendly packaging format has left leading coffee producers with a heavy burden

Having invented the world’s first single-serve coffee pods and machines back in 1986, Nespresso has been at the forefront of the industry’s recycling efforts since 1991.

of lessening the carbon footprint of their capsules in dramatic leaps and bounds, at the risk of facing outright legislative bans and consumer boycotts.

In many ways, Nespresso has had the luxury of being an early pacesetter in this race to coffee pod sustainability by virtue of making all its coffee pods, including the lidding, exclusively from aluminum, which is an infinitely recyclable material that can be reused again and again to make a highly diverse range of new products.

In fact, Nespresso launched its first capsule recycling program back in 1991—long before either single-serve coffee capsules or recycling, for that matter, became popular with the public at large.

According to Nespresso, the negative public image that single-serve capsules contend with today is largely the result of many of its competitors flooding the market with their own single-serve solutions that were not designed with recyclability in mind from the outset.

Late last year, Nespresso signed a Memorandum of

2019 The upscale Caran D’ache Nespresso Capsule Coffee 849 Darkhan Blue Edition ballpoint pens are made entirely from the recycled single-serve Nespresso brand aluminum capsules.

Understanding with leading global aluminum producer Rio Tinto to ensure that all the Nespresso capsules manufactured worldwide will be made from “responsibly-sourced” aluminum, as defined and certified by the international Aluminum Stewardship Initiative (ASI) group.

As one of ASI’s founding members, Nespresso’s close familiarity with the world’s second most-used metal makes the company an important link and stakeholder in creating and maintaining a sustainable aluminum value chain, according to Nespresso’s chief executive officer Jean-Marc Duvoisin.

“Nespresso is proud to have been a driving force in creating and implementing the ASI,” Duvoisin stat-

ed during the formal signing of the MOI with Rio Tinto in November of 2018.

“Together we have made responsibly-sourced aluminum a reality, and the ASI traceability mechanism will enable us to meet our commitment to customers to reduce the impact of their consumption,” Duvoisin stated.

“This is a positive step towards creating a more sustainable and environmentally-friendly future.”

The new sourcing initiative is a fitting follow-up to Nespresso’s AAA Sustainable Quality Program, rolled out in 2013 in partnership with The Rainforest Alliance, which pledges to secure the supply of highest-quality coffees, to protect the environment and

Produced by Swiss army knife manufacturer Victorinox, the limited-edition Pioneer Nespresso Sharkan knife is made entirely from the recycled Nespresso coffee capsules.

Being made of 100-percent aluminum provides Nespresso brand single-serve coffes pods with compelling recyclability advantages over many other brands.

improve the livelihood of over 75,000 farmers in 12 countries where Nespresso sources its raw product.

As with the ASI initiative, Nespresso aims to source 100 per cent of its coffee from its AAA Sustainable Quality Program by 2020.

For all that, overcoming the negative publicity generated by widespread backlash over single-serve coffee capsules remains something of a work-in-progress for Nespresso globally and here in Canada, where the company’s Nespresso Canada business is making concerted far-reaching efforts to get Canadian consumers fully on-board its progressive capsule recycling initiatives.

“It is not enough for a package to be fully recyclable; it actually has to be recycled in order to be a fully sustainable package,” says Caroline Duguay, Nespresso Canada’s director of communications in Montreal.

To make this happen, Nespresso Canada is focusing on making it as effortless as possible for consumers to do their part by including special recyclable plastic bags with the purchased Nespresso brand packs to collect the used capsules at home—without any extra handling or cleaning of the used pods.

“Our unique aluminum capsules are the only ones that enable our Club Members [Nespresso coffee machine owners] to enjoy their coffee and recycle the package without having to touch or even look at the grounds inside,” Duguay points out.

“There is no separating the lids, scooping out the grounds or rinsing out the cap … just bag it, seal it and drop it off at no charge.”

Depending on the region, Nespresso-supplied green-colored bags can be picked up through lo-

PAC CONNECT 2019

2019-02-12 11:45 AM

2019 cal waste diversion agencies, while the red-colored bags can be sent by mail at no charge via Canada Post directly back to Nespresso Canada, which works with various local recycling partners to separate the coffee grounds from the aluminum shell and lidding.

“The used coffee grounds are sent to local farmers for them to add in their compost solutions,” says Duguay, “so at the end of the day there is really no waste left behind whatsoever.

“Even the bag is being recycled.”

As of last spring, the red-bag program has been expanded to cover all Canadian provinces except for British Columba and Quebec, where consumers use the green-bag option for pod recycling and collection.

“The red bag solution aims to increase the collection capacity of used aluminum Nespresso capsules by making it as easy as possible for our customers to participate,” says Nespresso Canada president Jean-Luc Valleix.

“We have always set ourselves apart, as evidenced by our decision to develop capsules with aluminum—a material that not only preserves the freshness of coffee grounds but is also infinitely recyclable.

Says Valleix: “Nespresso has been committed to ensuring sustainability for more than 25 years, taking an active stance in working with local partners and governments and investing in tailored recycling solutions across Canada and around the world.”

While Nespresso Canada has now reached an estimated 95-percent recycling capacity for all the singleserve capsules it sells in Canada, according to Duguay, the company is launching a new complementary incentive program designed to remind its Club Members to recycle all of their Nespresso pods properly—using advanced tracking technology to collect data and monitor how well individual Nespresso machine owners are playing their part.

Duguay says the Nespresso Canada team is now actively working on a launch of a unique pilot program— part of the company’s Ethical Living Strategy—in the GTA (Greater Toronto Area) region that will see Nespresso Canada introduce speciallycoded individualized collection bags to thousands of local Club Members who have consented to be entered in a special database that will keep track of how many of the purchased Nespresso capsules they actually re-

2019 Members of TC Transcontinental’s Board of Directors and Senior Executive Committee pose for a group shot at the company’s packaging facility inBrooklyn, N.Y., in an exuberant display of enthusiasm for the company’s ongoing growth and transformation into one of the world’s largest integrated producers and converters of flexible packaging products.

LEADING TO GROW Sweeping corporate transformation serves up a lesson in the value of inspired senior management leadership and thoughtful strength of purpose

BY GEORGE GUIDONI, EDITOR

L

ike many buzzwords, the word “transformation” often lends itself to casual overuse—largely as a more emphatic euphemism for “change”—but as the late great business management guru Dr. Edwards Deming once deftly observed, “Transformation is not automatic. It must be learned; it must be

led.”

In this light, the recent emergence of Montreal-headquartered TC Transcontinental as one of the world’s largest converters of flexible packaging stands out as a textbook case of sweeping corporate transformation with a capital T. Underpinned by a relentless quest for long-term profitable growth and inspired leadership skills of the company’s winning duo, Isabelle Marcoux, TC Transcontinental’s Chair of the Board and her husband François Olivier, Chief Executive Officer, the company’s five-year journey from a packaging industry novice to one of its leading global lights may well be corporate Canada’s biggest success story so far this century.

Founded back in 1976 by Isabelle’s father Rémi Marcoux—one of revered early builders of the so-called Québec Inc. fraternity of ambitious new Quebec business enterprises eager to make their mark in corporate big leagues—the company’s knack for reinventing itself to keep up with the times has fostered and nurtured a distinct family-like workplace culture and environment that played a key role in TC Transcontinental continuous growth and evolution.

As Isabelle Marcoux recalls, “Coming from a modest family of 11 children, my father thought it essential that Quebecers make their mark in the long term, which

is what he set out to do with TC Transcontinental.

“Intelligent, innovative and passionate, he took many risks,” she says, “but only calculated ones.

“I toured a lot of factories with him and saw firsthand how close he is to the people, shaking hands, making them feel comfortable … I learned a lot by seeing him interact with people.”

While the idea of joining her father’s business one day was always an option, neither Isabelle or her siblings were granted a free ride to senior management roles solely on the account of being part of the family.

“My father had outlined three conditions to the hiring of any of his children in the company,” she relates.

“First, earn two university degrees; second, master three languages; third, work outside of TC Transcontinental for three years before joining.”

After fulfilling these demanding requirements and joining TC Transcontinental’s legal department in 1998 at the age of 29, Isabelle began her ascent up the corporate ladder—progressing from the position of director of mergers and acquisitions to vice-president

18 www.pac.ca

CPACK_JAN_FEB19_BAS.indd 60

of corporate development, ultimately succeeding her father as Chair of the Board in 2012.

In 1991, Isabelle met her future husband and current TC Transcontinental President and CEO François Olivier, who joined the company in 1993 after serving as general manager at leading Montreal-area meat processor Les Aliments Chatel’s and the former Canada Packers meat business of what is today widely known worldwide as Maple Leaf Foods Inc. A Bachelor of Science graduate from Montreal’s McGill University, Olivier’s academic accomplishments went hand-in-hand with his natural athletic talents, with the famed Boston Bruins franchise of the National Hockey League (NHL) drafting him into their organization in his early twenties.

“Unfortunately, due to an injury, I had to switch gears,” says Olivier, who took this change in stride to focus on furthering his academic pursuits—completing the graduate program for management development at the Harvard Business School—and entering the world of corporate management on a

full-time basis.

“I have always felt that it’s important to have a positive outlook on life as much as possible,” says Olivier, who immersed himself in learning as much as he could about the offset printing and publishing industries that at the time accounted for the lion’s share of the company’s revenues.

“A career, in whichever field we choose, will have some ups and downs, Olivier reflects.

“It is the same when managing a company; there will be good times and tougher moments.

“What drove me then and still drives me now in whatever I do, is making headway as a team and building something together,” says Olivier, whose 2008 appointment as TC Transcontinental’s President and CEO was preceded by progressive senior management roles at the company’s printing plants and a posting as senior vice-president of the former Newspaper Printing Group, “where I managed a network of 17 facilities across the country.”

2019 have provided a solid platform for helping family patriarch Rémi Marcoux fulfill his vision of passing the reins of the highly successful business he created on to the second generation through orderly and well-executed succession planning.

“Our roles complement each other well,” Isabelle states. “As Chair of the Board, I oversee the strategic orientation and decisions that set the future trajectory of our corporation and determine how we would like to see it evolve over the long term.

“As President and CEO, François is responsible for developing and implementing our business strategy and managing our dayto-day operations to ensure the success of the corporation and create value for all our stakeholders.”

diversify its current business and ensure long-term growth.

With the traditional offset print and media businesses both stagnating, the company’s leaders knew they had to take action. First, having already invested a lot in their state-of-the-art offset printing platform, they continued to aggressively gain market share and innovate in this sector. Second, they undertook to divest most of their media assets. Thirdly, they decided to pursue a whole new growth strategy in the more promising packaging industry—specifically the flexible packaging business.

As Olivier recalls, “The flexible packaging industry was rapidly identified as a natural fit given our extensive manufacturing experience and the fact that the market offered, and still offers, many opportunities for growth.”

Despite having had virtually no previous experience or exposure to the packaging business, the company’s leadership team worked tirelessly to get the support of its board of directors, shareholders and employees to proceed with its new strategic plan of entering the North American flexible packaging market through a combination of strategic acquisitions and organic growth.

Says Olivier: “We analyzed different segments of the packaging industry—including metal, glass containers and folding cartons— but the flexible packaging industry quickly stood out as making the most sense for us, given the production process, consisting of pre-media, printing and finishing, was somewhat similar to offset printing.”

Despite basic similarities and technology crossover, the TC Transcontinental team was under no illusions about the challenge of learning and gathering sufficient market intelligence about a vast new market in order to make a smooth entry and transition.

“At the time, we knew very little about packaging and so we set out to learn about it,” Olivier relates. “We were also humble while going through our learning curve.

“We organized meetings with companies in the flexible industry packaging, we visited plants, attended trade shows, and soon realized that this new growth sector was promising for us because the market wasn’t really consolidated.”

As TC Transcontinental discovered, the North American flexible packaging sector was in fact highly fragmented industry with a couple of dominant players and a multitude of small and mid-sized operations without the necessary capital or technological resources to pursue further aggressive growth and expansion.

For a company built on a legacy of strong market leadership and technological innovation that made it into a $3-billion-plus enterprise, the existing industry pecking order offered a unique opportunity for TC Transcontinental “to integrate acquired companies, realize anticipated synergies, generate sales growth, and identify complementary acquisition opportunities for our portfolio,” according to Isabelle.

“We had the support of the Board of Directors and the family every step of the way, with the same goal in mind: long-term growth and continuity.”

After making its first strategic acquisition in 2014 with the purchase of Clinton, Mo.-based dairy packaging group Capri Packaging in 2014, TC Transcontinental proceeded to execute five more strategic acquisitions over the next four years to strengthen

seize growth opportunities and convince the financial community of the merits of the strategy means we have a winning duo!”

Adds Olivier: “Playing sports at a high level certainly helped me be very efficient and dedicated towards any responsibilities I undertook, which translated into my work and ambition.

“Learning from others, listening, sharing knowledge, and gaining experience along the way have also definitely made a difference,” he elaborates.

20 www.pac.ca

CPACK_JAN_FEB19_BAS.indd 62

“I would also say that ‘hearing’ my board’s advice and being a good listener is key, as well as having a long-term vision.

“I can honestly say that TC Transcontinental’s values are the values that I believed in,” Olivier states, “even before joining the company.”

The need to maintain these values at the company’s core became paramount when Isabelle became Chair of the Board in 2012, with TC Transcontinental initiating a comprehensive review of its operations to

2019 its product portfolio and geographic reach, which included two Canadian-based manufacturing operations in Vancouver and Montreal.

Although this four-year buying spree swiftly propelled TC Transcontinental to the upper tiers of North America’s flexible packaging pecking order, its defining Bing Bang moment arrived just about a year ago in spring of 2018 in the form of a sensational C$1.72-billion acquisition of the Chicago-headquartered industry powerhouse Coveris Americas.

With that acquisition, “We have crossed a historic threshold in our transformation and accelerated our growth in flexible packaging,” Olivier asserts.

“It was a giant leap for us,” he states, noting that as a result of the buyout, “the packaging sector currently generates more than half of our consolidated adjusted revenues of C$3 billion on a pro forma basis.”

Adds Isabelle: “The transaction marked a turning point in our 42-year history, crystallized our strategic shift toward flexible packaging, and solidified our commitment to profitable growth.”

“When we first entered the flexible packaging market in 2014, it represented an important strategic move for the Corporation into a new promising

growth area,” she remarks.

“It was part of our strategy, and still is today, to ensure our future growth path through diversification.”

Despite having become a solid, vertically-integrated flexible packaging powerhouse with 28 production facilities, more than 4,000 employees, and leading or solid market shares in key vertical markets such as cheese and pet-food, among others, TC Transcontinental remains committed to maintaining the timehonored, family-rooted virtues and principles that have long made it one of Quebec’s most respected major employers and model corporate citizens.

“As a family-controlled corporation, we have the desire to build a lasting company and to pass on the legacy of a solid, responsible corporate citizen,” Isabelle explains. “We are committed to creating long-term value by investing in our employees’ wellness and development, fostering growth in the communities in which we are present, ensuring our prosperity, and adopting good practices to limit the environmental impact of our activities.”

For his part, Olivier is happy to extend much credit for the company’s remarkable and well-executed transformation journey to its loyal, dedicated and

highly engaged workforce.

“Our talented employees are at the heart of our success,” Olivier states. “Combined with the trust from our stakeholders, they really made a difference.

“We also had a clear strategy and executed our plan with diligence and determination, he adds, “and our solid financial position allowed us to make strategic acquisitions worth over C$2 billion.

“We have completed an exhaustive due diligence process for each acquisition and once we closed the deal, we quickly moved into an efficient and structured integration process.”

Adds Olivier: “We firmly believed that we could significantly leverage our manufacturing competencies in the flexible packaging industry that offered, and still offers, many opportunities for growth.

“The key is that we were willing to learn and to listen to the advice and knowledge that we were gaining along the way as we built momentum in the packaging industry,” he concludes.

“In the end, that’s what enabled us to execute our business plan diligently with agility and conviction, while being guided by TC Transcontinental’s values of respect, teamwork, performance and innovation.”

Alan Blake, Director of PAC NEXT US and PAC FOOD As the Director of PAC NEXT and FOOD from 2012 to 2016, Alan requires little introduction. He will lead PAC’s webinar programs, food waste initiatives and liaise with important partners.

“I’m delighted to be able to support PAC again. I remain passionate about the important role that packaging plays in our society today. It’s crucial to create a forum whereby collaborative supply chain solutions can be identified that deliver circular outcomes, to reduce and eliminate packaging and food waste.”

Dan Lantz, Director of PAC NEXT Dan Lantz joins the PAC team with over 30 years of experience in the waste management industry helping to improve efficiencies in material recovery facilities across North America.

“The organization does excellent work bringing together representation from across the packaging supply chain in a collaborative manner to reduce the impediments and improve opportunities to realize the goal of A World Without Packaging Waste.’ I look forward to this opportunity with PAC as we take on new challenges and help the packaging industry move to a circular economy.”

The key to the D-Series flexibility is a smaller i-Tech scan head, connected to the laser tube on a multi-position mount. The head can be rotated through 90 degree steps to allow for many mounting positions, and because it is so much smaller, it can easily fit where bigger lasers cannot.

Unlimited

Increased power and speed, combined with an optional IP65-rated version, result in the D620i laser, that is equal to the most demanding applications and environments. RapidScan makes our lasers 20% faster for high-speed applications than other scribing lasers.
