The Environmental Packaging Summit is taking place on Tuesday 16^th July 2019.  Hosted by Packaging News and taking place at The Crystal in London, this one-day event examines how the packaging industry can respond to the growing pressure on sustainability, from design and manufacture through to end of life and waste management.
