As inflation, energy volatility, and supply chain bottlenecks strain the packaging industry, companies grapple with trade-offs between cost reduction and durability. This week, ProcureAbility’s Joe Adamski joins us to dive into strategies like lightweighting materials, on-site renewable energy, and rethinking the possibilities with transportation logistics. Together, we examine the viability of "net zero" claims, greenwashing risks, and innovations like sensor-driven energy optimization.

Come join us as we discuss the Future of Supply Chain.
