In this issue of Inside Packaging, we explore where the industry is doing best to live up to demands for more sustainability and what may be holding it back, find out how smart packaging is increasing the value of cosmetics offerings, and visit Tetra Pak to discover how the company is adapting to digital manufacturing.


We also examine opportunities for packaging in the make-up sector to improve convenience and functionality, and profile a range of dried fruit snack products making use of home compostable packaging.


Plus, we ask why UK supermarkets need to take the lead in the war on plastic, see how a new hair chalk's packaging format offers a modern twist on the user experience, and discover how consumer rejection of plastic is seeing the sales of reusable water bottle soar.
