Creating the stage for Avery Dennison’s Sustainability Initiative

Waste no more

Packaging waste, what to do about it and who’s to blame keeps making headlines.  Walking the walk, instead of just talking the talk, takes collaboration across the value chain. At Labelexpo Europe, the leading labelling industry event, Avery Dennison took the stage to demonstrate their commitment to contribute and to support industry to tackle the challenges we face. The company has introduced ambitious sustainability goals for 2025 and is bringing more and more sustainable options to the market.  But for Avery Dennison, Labelexpo was not just a platform to talk. For the first time, 60% of the booth was produced using liner waste!
