What is the main statement of your presentation?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>We would like to present the results of a long-time development project and show that we succeeded&nbsp;&#8211; on this development platform &#8211; in developing a really sustainable and recyclable concept for pouches together with partners like Mondi Consumer Packaging GmbH, the Green Dot and EPEA Switzerland (Cradle-to-Cradle\u00ae).<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Which kind of audience to you wish and why?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>To be able to establish and develop the new market standard, we need participants of various fields of the FMCG industry.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>How do you assess the development of the SUP as a whole concering your field of activities?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>The SUP has an essential meaning for the future. SUP&#8217; s will be offered more and more as primary packaging as well as for refilling concepts.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>W&amp;M decided upon the topic &#8220;Packagings and sustainability&#8221;. What is &#8211; in your opinion &#8211; the most important benefit for your company and the customers as a whole?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>The pouch for detergent has established as primary packaging at our customers, and due to its &#8220;soft&#8221; feel, a very good residual emptying and a small weight it is very popular.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>What are the reasons for the continuous growth of the stand-up pouch market in your opinion?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>No answer.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>How do you classify the stand-up pouch regarding the demand for circular economy?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Current standards for SUP&#8217;s made of multilayer plastic compounds do not fulfil the condition for a simple, cost-efficient mechanical recycling. Various plastics and bonding agents prevent a sorted and above all simple recycling. For this reason, we strive for a new standard with our concept. Furthermore, the labelling of multilayer compounds has to become more clearly and explicitly for the customer.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Which SUP concept did impress you most?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Our common development.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>What do you recommend to a brand owner who wants to start with pouches?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To have a close look at all steps of the process chain &#8211; from film manufacturing up to classification and mechanical recycling. The knowledge profit for the classification of the SUP concept will be enormous!<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>And finally a personal question: What inspires you besides your professional activities?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Human reason and the claim to completeness when using knowledge!<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After having worked as machine assembly and plant technician at various companies for several years, Immo Sander studied packaging engineering\/print technology at the university for economy, technology and culture Leipzig (FH).
