Intelligent packaging extends shelf life, ensures quality and enables recycling through design - for more sustainability and less food loss.
Smart manufacturing increases efficiency and quality through AI, IIoT, big data and virtual twins - for optimal use of resources, less waste and a fast response to market changes.
Skills shortage meets technology: intelligent HMIs, VR training and assistance systems enable intuitive operation, faster familiarization and targeted training through microlearning.
In pharmaceutical companies, the need for fast, lean processes is increasing. In this context, digitization can help shorten market entry times, while maintaining and even improving product quality. However, players must also arm themselves against threats.
The global food and beverage industry is one of the most dynamic growth sectors. Plastic dominates sales of retail packaging for food and beverages.
