PKN talks… Taking positive climate action through innovative packaging solutions, with Carol Kilcullen-Lawrence at UPM Raflatac, and Nicholas Rodgers at Ego Pharmaceuticals.

In this episode, Lindy Hughson, managing editor & publisher of PKN Packaging News, talks with Carol Kilcullen-Lawrence, sustainability consultant to UPM Raflatac, and Nicholas Rodgers, packaging technologist at Ego Pharmaceuticals.

The podcast explores how the industry is tackling climate change, and its response to the Climate Bill legislative requirements. We get an insight into how UPM Raflatac and Ego are undertaking these positive climate action initiatives ahead of targets, fulfilling consumer expectations, and how they meet label regulatory requirements, through their Forest Film solution.

We also get an insight into the relationship between suppliers and brand owners to implement Forest Film, and how it won them a number of Packaging Innovation and Design Awards (PIDA) awards.
