Packaging teams across Europe are navigating increasing pressure to balance sustainability goals, regulatory compliance and operational performance. From Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) requirements and Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) obligations to rising costs and evolving customer expectations, every packaging decision has become more critical than ever.
At PACK EXPO International 2026 in Chicago, Illinois, Pregis looks beyond material cost to uncover the hidden expenses impacting your operation and identify opportunities for measurable improvement.

Reduce Damage and Waste
Product damage and returns drive costs throughout the supply chain. From manufacturing through final delivery, damage results in rework, scrap, spoilage, returns and replacements, impacting profitability, sustainability performance and customer satisfaction.
Pregis takes a consultative approach to identifying damage at its source and matching the right packaging solution to the application. Pregis PolyMask® Temporary Protective Films help manufacturers reduce surface damage, rework and production disruptions, while Pregis Performance Flexibles help food and consumer goods brands extend shelf life, reduce spoilage and protect product integrity.
Navigate Sustainability and Compliance
As sustainability regulations evolve across Europe, packaging teams must balance compliance, cost and performance. PPWR requirements, EPR obligations and corporate sustainability goals are driving increased focus on material reduction, recycled content and recyclability.
The Pregis 4R Material Strategy helps organisations evaluate reduction, renewable materials, recycled content and recyclability based on their unique application.
EasyPack® is a cost-effective paper packaging solution made from renewable resources, providing reliable cushioning for shipping protection. With a comprehensive portfolio of machines and paper options, EasyPack® solutions fits every application — paper void fill, cushioning, or blocking and bracing.
There is no one-size-fits-all sustainability strategy. Connect with Pregis sustainability specialists at PACK EXPO to explore opportunities that support both compliance and business objectives.
