PKN spoke to Glenn Woodworth of Zip-Pak Australia/ New Zealand about new closure solutions that attracted interest at Interpack and made their Australian debut this week at Foodpro 2017 in Sydney.

From new closure solutions for large bags to ground breaking options in the DTO (difficult to open) space, Zip-Pak Australia's Glenn Woodworth demonstrates some industry-leading concepts hot off the Interpack show trail and now available in Australia:

Food & Drink Business

A $27 million write-down of legacy inventory drove reported EBITDAS to negative $35 million, while net debt finished at $89 million against $90 million guidance.

SPC Global has delivered normalised EBITDA of $38.5 million for FY26, up 27 per cent and ahead of guidance for 25 per cent growth, on net sales revenue of $331.8 million.

Turnover and employment are at record levels in Australia’s food and grocery manufacturing sector and exports are also climbing, according to Australian Food and Grocery Council’s (AFGC) latest State of the Industry report. But the figures came with a warning – ongoing pressure on margins and operating costs could weaken the sector’s capacity to invest and grow over the long term.
