Adam shares takeaways from the CIRM User Group, where automation in label printing is improving efficiency for packaging manufacturers. Meanwhile, the team debates the endless war between BOPP (biaxially oriented polypropylene) and PE (polyethylene) labels—why some are recyclable and others aren’t, and what that means for brands looking to make sustainable choices.Of course, the show wouldn’t be complete without some sarcasm. The team takes a jab at the idea that turning plastic waste into jellyfish art is a real solution. Spoiler alert: It’s not. While recycling and repurposing are crucial, we can’t “art” our way out of the plastic crisis. Instead, the focus needs to be on improving recycling infrastructure, material choices, and the circular economy.At the end of the day, the key takeaway is simple: Labels matter. The right material choice can mean the difference between a product that contributes to the landfill and one that integrates into a sustainable future. But one thing is for sure—labels are not packaging. And Adam is tired of saying it.Tune in to hear the full debate, get insider insights from the packaging world, and maybe—just maybe—learn why Superman is still MIA when it comes to solving our plastic problems.Mentions:CERM User Group -https://cerm.netSpec Right Summit -https://specright.comHow2Recycle -https://how2recycle.infoIDP Direct -https://idpdirect.comJoin packaging industry experts Evelio Mattos, Cory Connors, and Adam Peek each week on the “Packaging Today Show” LIVE!Unpack the world of packaging design, manufacturing, and sustainability.
