Is Liquid Death Infinitely Recyclable? Packaging Today Show | Ep 174
In this lively episode of "Packaging Today," hosts Evelio Mattos, Adam Peek, and Cory Connors engage in a frank and humorous discussion about the realities and misconceptions in the packaging industry. From personal anecdotes to tough industry critiques, the episode traverses various aspects of packaging, including recyclability, materials, and the swift pace of social media marketing.
The conversation kicks off with a debate on whether any packaging material can be considered 100% recyclable, with Peek ardently challenging the often misused marketing term "infinitely recyclable." The trio addresses the complexities of recycling and its dependability on consumer behavior and recycling infrastructure. Peek's exchange on LinkedIn with a CEO critiquing his views on recyclability leads to a broader examination of industry marketing practices and the importance of transparency with consumers.
No packaging material is 100% recyclable 100% of the time, and terms like "infinitely recyclable" are often misleading within marketing contexts.
Consumer education and ease of recycling are critical factors in improving recycling rates, even more so than the recyclability of the packaging itself.
There exists a notable inflexibility and reluctance in parts of the industry to embrace newer marketing strategies, including agile responses in social media.
Brand engagement on social media can lead to significant marketing opportunities if a company is quick to harness momentous events, as shown by Nike's example.
Packaging professionals should strive to stay informed and adaptable to the evolving landscape of consumer interaction and technology advancements.
