Inken Schoenauer Editor-in-chief |
Dear ipw reader,
below please find a selection of recent news from our website. Packaging is the focus of our next printed issue. This topic is hot, not only during this summer. There is really a lot going on - the pulp and paper industry might be a little bit jealous of the "neighbours" in the industry. Consumers are becoming more concious of the environmental impact of packaging when deciding what products to buy. But just think: this might help the whole industry. Clearly, paper and board are preferred over plastic. Two studies on this topic will be in our next issue, along with more news, science and technology and a 'Best of Zellcheming' section. Wishing you a wonderful summer, your ipw team |
