GENERAL PATRON

The World Packaging Organisation is a non-profit, nongovernmental, international federation of national packaging institutes and associations, regional packaging federations and other interested parties including corporations and trade associations.

Founded September 6, 1968 in Tokyo by visionary leaders from the global packaging community, the purposes of the organisation include encouraging the development of packaging technology, science, access and engineering, contributing to the development of international trade and stimulating education and training in packaging.

Primary activities of the organisation today are to promote education through meetings, special activities and publications, to sponsor an international packaging design awards program and to facilitate contact and exchange among the various national institutes of packaging.

One of the major events of the World Packaging Organisation is the The WorldStar Competition. The pre-eminent international award in packaging, WorldStar illustrates

the continual advancement of the state of packaging design and technology and creates a living standard of international packaging excellence from which others may learn. WorldStars are presented only to those packs which, having already won recognition in a national or regional competitions, are compared by an expert panel of judges to similar packs from around the world. Awards are based on the judges’ consensus that a pack is superior in its category and market and better in its class in execution or innovation by comparison to others. Since 1970, the World Packaging Organisation has given awards to numerous new packs from all around the world.

The vision of the World Packaging Organisation is“Better quality of life, through better packaging for more people�. This vision focuses on packaging as vital to the success of products and services, industry and trade, and society as a whole. By stimulating packaging science and development and contributing to the further development of the international packaging trade the World Packaging Organization has over the years developed into a truly global organization.

WORLD PACKAGING DAYS 2012

Welcome to World Ladies and gentlemen, Welcome to World Packaging Days 2012, organised in cooperation with the World Packaging Organisation. We have set the event in the beautiful sorroundings of the Adriatic Sea and ancient monuments of Split town, wrapping it up with a traditionally warm Croatian and Mediterranean welcome to make you feel comfortable as our guests and business partners, hoping you will enjoy all what is ahead of you.

By accepting the challenge to organize the World Packaging Days 2012, we accepted great responsabilities and numerous organizational obligations which such a demanding and important event brings along, but also a great sense of pride that in these hard times of crisis we got the opportunity to be hosts of packaging producers and users as well as numerous related professionals within the domestic, regional and global packaging industry.

Drena Milijević, This year’s World Packaging Days have an exceptionally rich conManaging Director tent, with the main aim to deal with the changing needs of desiInstitute of Packaging and gners, marketing professionals and the packaging industry on a Graphic Arts - IAT, Croatia global level, focusing especially on sustainability and environment protection. These issues are more important now than ever, when the economic changes are almost impossible to predict mostly because of the impact of the global crisis, which hasn’t failed to affect the packaging users, producers and all related professionals. All levels of packaging production and packaging distribution, which are an inseparable part of the product itself, are under increasing demands for greater efficiency, but with respect to every day more strict regulations, safety standards, as well as standards of consumers and environment protection. The packaging industry must respond to these demands in all parts of the World, coping with the various differences and specific requirements.

The World Packaging Congress “Packaging and Sustainability” will feature eminent speakers who will use their experience and expertise to offer meaningful insights and practical advice concerning development, design, production and use of packaging, all focused on sustainability. Although each lecture offers an important value, the main strenght of the Congress lies in the opportunity of creating a general overview of packaging and packaging related processes on a global level.

The regional Round Table with the topic “Packaging and Packaging Waste Management – Legal Framework” will give answers to questions about the terms of packaged products placement on markets of six regional countries, defined by law regulations, with the goal of all-encompassing environment protection.

The CROPAK 2012 and REGPAK 2012 Awards Ceremony will distinguish and reward the persistent efforts and results of packaging users, producers and designers who take part in the creation and comprehensive realization of packaging. Their educational efforts and responsability in the field of environment protection are especially noteworthy, as well as the work synergy of professional design, socially responsible companies and educational institutions in Croatia, which was rewarded through the Student Creative Workshop 2012, whose results we will present proudly.

The culmination of the entire event, of course, will be the WorldStar Awards Ceremony and Gala Dinner, where the representatives of the crème de la crème from the global packaging level will be awarded. We would like to congratulate all the winners, passing on a message for them to continue their the development of packaging, following the highest standards of packaging profession and sustainability.

Last but not least, in a more relaxed atmosphere during the excursion for all participants on June 7th, we will present you some of the most known sceneries of our country, hoping that the places you visit will remain as treasured memories which you will carry back to your countries and your homes and a great motivation to visit us again, wether during a new business visit or a leisure tourist journey. Which ever the purpose of your next visit will be, you are always more than welcome in Croatia!

With warmest regards, Drena Milijević 6

WORLD PACKAGING DAYS 2012

Packaging Days 2012 Ladies and gentlemen,

Thomas L. Schneider, President World Packaging Organisation

The current situation in the packaging industry on a global level is very positive. Packaging has developed over the last 20 or 30 years from a position of marginality to being a strategic tool in achieving the safety of a product. Packaging performance along with packaging cost have become an important item on income statements of most companies. Consequently, packaging professionals now have the opportunity, through quality education and training, to earn better salaries and achieve more important status in their companies.

During my three-year term as a president of WPO I plan to work with my colleagues to build on the excellent work of my predecessor Keith Pearson and to continue creating new initiatives that will benefit the world packaging community.

One of the main focus points of my work will be identifying packaging education programs and institutes around the world that need funding or assistance. Professional training in the packaging sector should be “fit for purpose�, meaning that basic training in North America or Europe might be different from basic training in Ghana or Sri Lanka.

Another focus point will be creating outreach programs in order to bring together national and regional packaging organisations for the common good of the Packaging Community. We will also be focusing on increasing the number of entries in our WorldStar Awards and WorldStar Student Awards programs and encouraging more WPO board members to become actively involved in WPO programs/activities. In a general sense we will promote the importance of packaging as a strategic social, economic, and commercial tool. My message to the packaging professionals in Croatia and the region is open your eyes to fresh ideas that are outside your standard frame of reference. Educate yourselves to expect and use the unexpected ideas. Take time to understand how those new ideas can be applied and then apply those new ideas to your present circumstance. You will likely find uncommon success that will be good for you, your company, and for society.

Best regards, Thomas L. Schneider

WORLD PACKAGING DAYS 2012

World Packaging Congress “PACKAGING AND SUSTAINABILITY” June 6th 2012 PRESENTATIONS SUMMARIES Keynote Speech - Global Packaging Industry - Current Situation and Perspectives up to 2020 Because packaging impacts the whole of society, the elements that impact packaging are therefore, broad and inclusive, too. It is difficult to cover all of them in a short time, so we will talk about a few that may be of interest.

We will briefly discuss material design trends in flexible packaging, energy conservation related to packaging materials, product protection in the supply chain and technology developments for safer food, especially track and trace methods. The issue of sustainability will be discussed from a business perspective.

Thomas L. Schneider, WPO President

Croatian and Regional Packaging Industry Potential The presentation will offer a view on macroeconomic environment in the republic of Croatia. It will present statistical data on production of packaging in Croatia as well as export and import data for packaging industry in the country. It will also provide an overview of consumption of packaging in tons for the period from 2006 to 2011. Finally, the presentation aims to describe the main challenges packaging industry in Croatia faces by dealing with the most common business issues encountered by packaging manufacturers.

Enis Kancelir, President of Affiliation of Packaging Industries, Croatian Chamber of Economy, Croatia

How Packaging Contributes to Sustainability Packaging has been seen as a burden for the environment by green NGO’s and the public. During the past 20 years, the packaging industry has successfully developed packaging by down gauging individual packages and adaptation of new technologies in order to become more environmentally efficient. Packaging has been optimized across the delivery chain including secondary and tertiary packaging. Vast environmental efforts are put into the production of any product, especially foodstuff. Recent studies have proven that packaging constitutes only a fraction of the total environmental burden of any product system. At the same time, packaging preserves the product and the environment and thus contributes to Sustainability. Packaging also makes it possible to distribute food to aid famine across the world as the WPO charter points out.

Roger Bagge, Finnish Packaging Association (WPO Member)

Packaging and Food Safety - Global Approach Today, ofi is one of the largest research and testing institutes for packaging and food safety in Austria and an international accepted member of the European Packaging Institutes Consortium (EPIC) and the Word Packaging Organisation (WPO).

Approximately 2/3 of all packaging materials are used for foodstuff. Thus, packaging materials for food, call for special attention. Especially the interaction between packaging materials and foodstuff is a delicate issue and the object of many researches.

14

The focus is on the growing and changing requirements in the fields of safety and design of packaging and materials, as well as related test methods (e.g. migration). In addition to the survey of the scientific and legislative situation the need of establishing a WPO working group will be evaluated.

Johannes Bergmair, OFI, Packaging Institute at Austrian Reserch Institute (WPO Member)

Economical, Social and Ecological Aspect of Packaging and Chinese Market Potential Environmental issues are widely concerned by countries around the world, packaging industry has its responsibiltiy to contribute to the sustainable development of the world. Different regions and countries may have different strategies and norms in terms of sustainability, which based on their various status of development. However, since environmental protection is the common goal of our global society, international standards on packaging and environment are expected by the industry, and in fact they are already under developing process now.

In this presentation, I will introduce: - Background situation of developing International Standards on packaging and environment; - why those standards are needed and what were the triggers for developing them at international level; - The current working structure and progress of those standards; - How will those standards impact packaging industry, and specifically the Chinese market, after they are officially published by ISO (International Organisation for Standardization) in the near future.

Xu Ting, National Export Commodities Packaging Research Institute - CEPI, China (WPO Member)

Economical, Social and Ecological Aspect of Packaging and American Market Potential The outlook for the packaging industry remains strong. Consumer demands continue to drive brand owners toward more innovative, user-friendly designs which best fit the American lifestyle. We will discuss a few of these trends, and explore how packaging suppliers and CPG companies can use these trends to their advantage Patrick M. Farrey, Institute of Packaging Professionals, USA (WPO Member)

Economical, Social and Ecological Aspect of Packaging and Indian Market Potential The presentation will cover the following aspects : - Brief about the Institute.

- India- profile, social and economical - India-ecological aspects.

- Indian Consumer behaviour.

- India- changing trends & its impact on packaging.

- Packaging Scenario in World & India.

- Role of Packaging & Challenges.

Narayan C. Saha, Indian Institute of Packaging, India (WPO Member)

WORLD PACKAGING DAYS 2012 Packaging and Marketing - Global Approach What is your market strategy?

The marketing strategy of a brand has to be materialized to consumers through its packaging.

The macro-economic scenario brings a bigger challenge to the FMCG industry to have winning products in such a competitive market. At the same time, the global competitiveness puts a huge pressure over costs making it necessary to explore all the effective tools to add value to the product, call consumers’ attention and overcome the rational decision with emotional values.

In this context, packaging has a huge role for being at the same time intrinsic of fmcgs, and for having a strong communication power. Knowing how to explore it is a key factor for marketing people.

But different bullet points have to be taken in to consideration, such as consumer polarization, their behaviors and demands, demographic and cultural aspects, society’s new value on sustainability and the impacts of the virtual network.

What are the key points to make your packaging bring to light the benefits of your products and differentiate it before consumers?

Luciana Pellegrino, Associação Brasileira de Embalagem (ABRE), (WPO Member)

Packaging Design - Economical, Social and Ecological Aspects Sustainable packaging design often fixates on only one dimension of sustainability, generating environmental benefits (and perhaps even more narrowly on only carbon footprint reductions), while neglecting the other demands of a package. In a presentation focused on the broader aspects of package design, Dr. Abramowicz will explore how to create an effective and sustainable solution by addressing all three dimensions of sustainability: environmental, economic and social dimensions. Using brief case histories representing a variety of market segments and package formats, Abramowicz will explain how packaging helps brands reduce their environmental footprint, support economic success through self-differentiation and value-added features on the retail shelf, and satisfy the social needs of consumers by accommodating their changing lifestyles.

Daniel A. Abramowicz, Ph.D., Crown Holdings Inc, USA

Are your designs working hard enough?

As a brand owner or retailer you know that the recognition and perception of a brand is highly influenced by its visual presentation. Your product packaging must communicate the value of your brand while still fulfilling its practical role. It is the ultimate form of relationship marketing and you have invested heavily in designs that maximise shelf impact.

But are your current print production processes allowing you to gain maximum return on that design investment or could your designs be working harder for you? The good news is that it may not take a major redesign to significantly improve the shelf impact of your flexographic printed flexible packaging. The answer lies with choosing a flexographic printing plate that can give you greater process ink densities and smoother solid areas, without compromising the reproduction of your design. Listen how Kodak Flexcel NX Plates use award winning technology to significantly improve the ink transfer of solvent inks on films, resulting in more vibrant colours, higher contrast and cleaner print. And when the time does come for a product re-design or a new product launch, take full advantage of all that the latest in digital plate technology has to offer. Not only can designers rely on more vibrant print and whiter whites, they can also achieve more photo-realistic reproduction and confidently include complex graphic designs with subtle detail, or even consider brand new elements in the design. Kodak’s plate technology enables designs to be produced with fewer spot colours, allowing greater flexibility and significant reduction in manufacturing costs.

David Croft, Kodak Graphic Communications Group, Belgium

Plastic Packaging and Sustainability Global Approach SABIC is engaged in sustainability as a key element in our growth mission.

During the development of new Polyolefin products for packaging applications, SABIC focuses continuously on sustainability by concentrating on down gauging, recycling & consumer health.

The SABIC presentation on World Packaging Congress in 2012 shows practical SABIC value offers in the field of food and non-food packaging with a clear link to the reduction of the environmental footprint in the value chain involved. Recent developments are presented in the area of recycled HDPE dairy bottles, thinner polyolefin packaging films and ultra-light weight foams.

Gert Coun, SABIC, The Netherlands

Glass Packaging and Sustainability Global Approach Vetropack Group is committed to the three-pillar model of sustainability: economical, social and ecological responsibility. To this end, better energy efficiency, lighter and more robust glass packaging forms the foundation of our model.

Energy consumption for melting will be drastically reduced by a new technology of preheating raw materials and cullet. In Vetropack’s Straza plant in Croatia an initial pilot unit operated successfully.

A revolutionary glass packaging tempering process results in further weight reduction and a significant increase in breakage resistance. In late 2012, a pilot tempering line will be installed in Vetropack’s Pöchlarn plant in Austria.

Both technologies outlined here are investments in the future through which everyone will benefit – manufacturers, the food and beverage industry and consumers.

Günter Lubitz, Vetropack Group, Switzerland

Flexible Packaging and Sustainability Global Approach How can flexible packaging contribute to reduce the growing waste of food products. It is estimated that 179kg food is wasted per capita per year in the EU. A significant part of this is because the packaging is not optimised for the consumption pattern of the consumer, or because it is not technically optimised for the packed products. I will present examples on how flexible packaging can be used in an optimised way. In particular I will focus on a novel technique for extending shelf life of fresh cut produce.

Atle Flom, Kobusch, Germany

Infraredesign® - Protection of Product Originality in Flexible Packaging INFRAREDESIGN® is an invention unique in the world, patent awarded with over 30 prizes from US, across Europe to Taiwan. It is invention that enables creating double image in the same picture: one visible in daylight and other independent hidden image visible in near infrared light. INFRAREDESIGN® provides superior brand protection with easy identification of security, enriches design and provides added value to the packaging and the final product.

One of the most important advantages is simple application in printing process using standard inks, standard printing techniques, standard printing surfaces. It can be easily detected and validated using any camera with infrared source, by infrared cameras or security cameras and also by standard bar code readers.

WORLD PACKAGING DAYS 2012 Advanced Plastic Technology Discovering the Goodness of Plastic There is mounting public concern about the longevity of plastic which gets into the rivers, oceans and landscape and cannot realistically be collected for disposal.

Symphony Environmental is a specialist in Oxo-biodegradable plastics, which degrade in the open environment by a process of oxidation. The d2w additive included at manufacture turns ordinary plastic at the end of its useful life in the presence of oxygen into a material with a different molecular structure.

At that stage it is no longer a plastic and has become a material which is inherently biodegradable in the open environment in the same way as a leaf.

A report published by the UK Environment Agency in 2011 showed that oxobiodegradable bags have a better LCA than paper or compostable plastic, and better than cotton bags unless the latter are re-used very many times.

Symphony’s d2w Oxo-biodegradable additive will cause most plastics made from PE, PP or PS to degrade after their useful life in a pre-set approximate time span from as little as six months onwards, leaving no fragments or harmful residues. Because degradation is automatic in the presence of air, the plastic will degrade even if discarded as litter, and it will not emit methane even when buried in a landfill. Plastic made with d2w is also recyclable in a normal waste stream - see http://www.biodeg.org/position-papers/ recycling/?domain=biodeg.org Over the last decade consumers, NGOs and Governments have been highly critical of the plastics industry because its products will lie or float around for decades if they get into the open environment, and it has now been made compulsory in the Middle East to use oxo-biodegradable plastic. The time is now for the industry worldwide to protect itself by using d2w. For a video of plastic film degrading, visit: http://degradable.net/play-videos/4 Symphony has also introduced a new product called d2p, to protect human health. This is a suite of additives which give plastic products anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties. Its applications are enormous, for example food packaging, computer keyboards, telephones, door handles, toilet seats,

etc. 2010 was also the year in which Symphony launched the d2Detector - a portable xrf machine that checks the true content of plastic packaging and can also be used to detect the presence of counterfeit goods. Symphony also has tracing and tagging technologies to protect almost anything against counterfeiting.

Michael Stephen, Symphony Environmental, UK

Xerox Automated Packaging Solution A New Way of Thinking Xerox Automated Packaging Solution Powered by Stora Enso is a joint venture between a number of leading vendors. This allows a customer to deliver short run full color automated packaging solutions. The in-line process means maximum productivity for packagers. For example, blank packaging boards are placed in the feeder and finish in the output stacker completely printed, coated and die cut - ready for folding and gluing. Print providers can produce customized, variable data on each package cost effectively with minimal operator use. The solution is ideal for retailers looking to test prototype product with a variety of different packaging. It also helps minimize the impact on the environment by printing on demand to reduce waste and using packaging board that is renewable and recyclable.

John Cable, HEC & Business Development Manager Xerox Developing Markets Operations

Education Opportiunities for Packaging Industry - Global Perspective The importance of packaging education to achieve immediate and long term goals is addressed in this presentation, along with an analysis of current provision and its strengths and weaknesses. The analysis concludes that packaging education requires significant international development if the micro and macro challenges that have been identified are to be met.

PRO EUROPE acts as the authoritative voice and common policy platform representing the interests of their members; moreover PRO EUROPE organises the exchange of best practices especially with regard to the collection, sorting and recycling of household packaging.

These national recovery organisations are pursuing similar goals, essentially finding themselves and their stakeholders in a similar situation.

They have set themselves the task of relieving industrial companies and commercial enterprises of their individ-ual obligation to take back used sales packaging through the operation of a scheme which fulfils these obligations on a nation-wide basis on behalf of their member com-panies. The aim is to ensure the recovery and recycling of packaging waste in the most economically efficient and ecologically sound manner. Apart from requiring the co-ordination and alignment of individual member positions, the task of safeguarding common interests involves the projection of a coherent, unified policy and image to the outside world.

24

The “Green Dot” has evolved into a proven concept in many countries as implemen-tation of Producer Responsibility. Industry in twenty–seven nations is now using the “Green Dot” as the financing symbol for the organisation of recovery, sorting and re-cycling of sales packaging. Private-sector compliance schemes working toward this objective are today in place in twenty-two EU member states, viz., Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ire-land, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, and Sweden as well as additional countries include Norway (as an EEA member), Croatia, Macedonia, Serbia and Turkey. Moreover, systems from the UK (VALPAK), Italy (CONAI), Finland (PYR), Netherlands (NEDVANG), Iceland (IRF), Ukraine (UkrPec) and Canada (Stewardedge) complete the membership within PRO EUROPE. The members of PRO EUROPE wish to demonstrate that the recycling of used pack-aging is an important step on the path towards the sustainable development that is necessary to safeguard our planet for future generations. Their work in Europe and world-wide is both successful and transparent.

Incorporated as a private limited liability company under Belgian law (société privée à responsabilité limitée, s.p.r.l.), PRO EUROPE is headquartered in 1200 Brussels, Rue Martin V 40. The Managing Director is Joachim Quoden and the President Luis Veiga Martins from the Portugal member Sociedade Ponto Verde.
