Our company blog is an online arcade complex. We discuss Star Wars, packaging, book recommendations, job hunting, and self-improvement advice, which allows us to confidently state that it must be everyone’s cup of tea.

Since the whole point of our company is to help you succeed, we try to keep our posts as lighthearted as they are informative: we know that packaging and recruiting are not necessarily fun, so we strive to provide you with monthly posts that won't make you feel like you're back in school all over again. If you’re willing to take some advice from a company that has been in this business for half a century, head to our website and get reading.

It takes a village to deliver quality packaging solutions, and it takes a lot more if the village is not well-managed.

Research and development are fundamental parts of innovation, but efficiency is just as important to achieve satisfactory results and get the most out of your resources. Your packaging department must be empowered and structured so as to have a proper knowledge flow, and investing in good technology is your safest bet to alleviate your team's burdens. The latest management model for packaging departments is the PackDev CoE, and the implementation of its four key components might just revolutionize your packaging operations.

In a world where interns are generally entrusted with tasks a 7th grader could carry out without any hitches, the way you treat your trainee could make all the difference.

The opportunities you offer your interns are one of the telltale signs of the true value of your company. As conventional corporate culture falls apart after the events of the past year, we suggest starting to ponder how attractive and accessible your brand looks to job seekers: are you inadvertently branding yourself as distant and out-of-touch, or are you the kind of company people would get a beer with?

The human side of recruiting is often overlooked when trying to staff a team or looking for a good candidate. To hear our recommendations, head over to the company blog.

You can be confident we will be doing everything in our power to see you thrive. We assure you we want to see you succeed in the long term, so we are not afraid of the hesitation that comes before commitment.

As much as the world could use it, the only person able to wake up one morning having found the solution to end plastic pollution is, arguably, a "student of all sciences" like Doc Brown.

However, since we live in a world where a DeLorean is just a car, the most we can do is try to become increasingly conscious of how our waste affects the planet. Luckily for us, all over the world researchers are scrambling to promote innovations to end plastic waste: to find out the latest news on how nanotechnologies, magnets, or wood could aid the development of more sustainable packaging in pretty much any field, we recommend checking out the dedicated article on GreenBiz.com

Millennials, those entitled slackers, currently represent about 3/4 of the workforce.

The generation that is taking over the labor market is one of the most stereotyped and misunderstood ones. People belonging to Generation Y range from 25 to 40-year-olds, and they are independent workers who strive to leave the world a better place than they found it.
If you wish to make the most educated generation work for you instead of against you, you will probably need a few insights on what they value most: do you think you have done your best to keep up with the times so far?

For a glance at which forces will be shaping the future of recruiting and what exactly makes companies appealing to this generation’s top talents, visit our website for a whitepaper that might just help you.

When it comes to , talking the talk is a lot easier than walking the walk, especially if the impact of eco-friendly packaging on your balance sheet is what is making you limp in the first place.

Despite the high cost of materials, though, investing in sustainable packaging is probably the wisest initiative you could take: it would significantly lower regulatory issues while improving your reputation among clients and shareholders, which would benefit your business in the long run. The perfect moment to venture into sustainable projects is right now, while the windows of opportunity are still wide open.

Climate change posed a threat to our livelihoods before COVID made it cool, and now that the pandemic is nearing its end (and so is the return of single-use plastics), it's fundamental that the focus is set back on sustainability.

When it comes to packaging, the most powerful indicators of commitment to a cleaner future are credentials and accreditations. Mix that with the current social media landscape and you will easily understand the current relevance of sustainable packaging when it comes to beauty products, the main scope of expertise of influencers. Unsustainable products are bound to undergo a real trial-by-media, and starting to shift back to eco-friendly solutions already might just make all the difference.
