Result Group, a leading supplier of innovative packaging equipment and materials, will be holding a virtual site tour of its operations, and those of its partners Herma and Hanes, on 5 August, under the auspices of the AIP.

Among its advanced solutions is the Herma InNo Liner – a PIDA and WorldStar Award-winning labelling technology, which eliminates landfill waste by removing silicone, reducing disposal costs, lowering transport volume, and boosting material efficiency.

Hanes Australasia – owner of brands like Bonds, Sheridan, Champion, and Bras N Things – is an early adopter of this system in order to meet its 2025 sustainability goals. Operating 24/7, the system provides labelling with no release liner, no silicone content, and zero waste disposal.

AIP members are invited to join Result Group on an insightful journey that will start in the company’s Demo Room, followed by a trip to Herma’s headquarters in Germany, then returning to Australia to check out Hanes Australasia’s operations.

Attendees can experience first-hand how the innovative Herma InNo Liner system operates in real-time and uncover the substantial sustainability and efficiency benefits it brings to the business.

After the tour, there will be a Q&A session with Sebastian Siccita, group general manager – Logistics at Hanes Australasia; Michael Dossor, general manager at Result Group; and Paul Rushton, technical operations manager at Result Group.

Food & Drink Business

The Senate Economics Committee has rejected the Food Donations Bill that proposed a tax offset for companies donating excess food to food relief agencies rather than dumping it. While the bill had the potential to deliver the equivalent of 100 million meals to food relief organisations, the committee said it had “serious concerns” including the bill’s “generous” tax concessions. Food relief agencies and social welfare organisations have questioned the committee’s decision to reject the bill outright rather than make recommendations for amendments.  

The winners of the 62nd annual Australian Export Awards were announced in Canberra yesterday, featuring three winners from the food sector – including dessert manufacturer Frosty Boy Global, in the Agribusiness, Food and Beverages category.
