Details

There are strong incentives globally that drive a range of sustainability initiatives in dairy processing. This session will cover case studies around milk processing and packaging. - Energy and heat decarbonisation in dairy plants, what is actually working beyond efficiency gains? - Water stewardship beyond “use less water” - Packaging choices and food waste - the dairy shelf-life equation.  How packaging design influences shelf-life, distribution reach and waste. Trade-offs between recyclable packaging and product loss. - Dairy packaging in a low-carbon world - what's actually moving the needle?  Where does packaging materially contribute to dairy footprint reduction, and where it doesn't.  Trade-offs between lightweighting, recyclability, shelf-life and food waste.  How global brands are prioritising actions.
