Scanpack 2024: our three key takeaways

Mono-materials, right-sizing and tactile finishes were the clearest themes at the Gothenburg fair.

Scanpack in Gothenburg gathers the Nordic packaging industry. Three themes recurred in nearly every conversation.

1. Mono-materials

Simpler material combinations make recycling clearer and reduce the risk of incorrect sorting.

Fitting the pack to the product cuts both material use and freight cost, often more than a material switch does.

Embossing and soft-touch are used to create a premium feel without adding plastic layers.
