This is part of Packaging Forward, a webinar series dedicated to exploring the future of packaging.
Paper-based packaging already performs across a wide range of applications. In some end-uses, barrier layers enhance the performance of paper-based materials to meet additional requirements, such as protection against moisture, grease, or oxygen.
As expectations for packaging performance continue to rise, new questions are emerging around how these barriers are designed. Packaging teams are increasingly balancing functional requirements with recyclability considerations, material simplicity, and evolving regulatory expectations.
In this 60-minute session a panel of Stora Enso experts in barrier technology, recyclability, and regulation explored how barrier innovation is evolving and what it may mean for the next generation of paper-based packaging.
