The Future Wrapped: Sustainable Packaging with Tracy Sutton and Hannah Worthington Informing Choices Mini-Pod

    • Management

In our rapidly changing world, the way we package goods has become a critical aspect of our environmental footprint. The burgeoning field of sustainable packaging is not just a trend but a necessity.

In this episode of the podcast, we will try to unwrap the layers of innovation and transformative changes we can anticipate in the next few decades: from the potential of innovative packaging systems; pioneering materials; to the impact of technological advancements like nanotechnology and smart packaging. But it is not just about the materials. What about the systemic changes - how businesses, consumers, and regulations could adapt to and drive the demand for sustainable packaging?

To explore this landscape, I am delighted to extend a warm welcome to the podcast to two guests with a passion for
sustainable packaging and the environment, from specialist consultancy Root. With me today are lead consultant and founder Tracy Sutton and policy and impact lead Hannah Worthington.
