Companies across the packaging industry are actively seeking sustainable packaging solutions that allow them to maintain product performance while improving recyclability and reducing the CO2 footprint of packaging production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At&nbsp;<strong>Interpack 2026 in D\u00fcsseldorf&nbsp;<\/strong>(Stand&nbsp;<strong>8A F54<\/strong>), Comexi will present a portfolio of ready-to-market applications designed to help brand owners address these challenges. By integrating advanced printing, laminating, slitting and laser technologies, the company enables packaging structures that reduce CO2 footprints and VOC emissions while improving production efficiency and lowering operational costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This approach demonstrates that sustainable flexible packaging is no longer only about environmental responsibility. When properly implemented, it can also become a driver of industrial efficiency and competitiveness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Sustainable packaging solutions for brand owners<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A key highlight of Comexi\u2019s presence at Interpack will be the&nbsp;<strong>4th edition of the Sustainable Packaging Showroom<\/strong>, taking place on May 11, from&nbsp;<strong>10:00 AM to 5:00 PM<\/strong>, with a dedicated technical session from&nbsp;<strong>2:00 PM to 5:00 PM in Hall 10, room 10.1<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The seminar will focus on practical industrial advantages rather than general sustainability concepts. Experts from Comexi and industry partners will explain how new technologies can help companies move toward more sustainable flexible packaging production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The technical session will address topics such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2022 Solvent-free production processes<br>\u2022 Reduction of VOC emissions<br>\u2022 Energy-efficient packaging production<br>\u2022 Packaging structures designed to improve recyclability<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By combining optimized packaging design with advanced machinery, converters can reduce material consumption and develop sustainable packaging solutions aligned with evolving European regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Recyclable packaging innovations presented by Comexi<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While Comexi will display a vast array of solutions,
