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.
