The Special Award category, won by Amcor, is dedicated to emerging markets and breaking frontiers in mono-material packaging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Amcor\u2019s AmPrima\u00ae solution has been commended for its application in recycle-ready coffee packaging. The new pouch offers coffee producers a 68% reduction in carbon footprint when compared to traditional packaging alternatives. This sustainability claim is based on a packaging lifecycle assessment using Amcor\u2019s ASSET model, which is certified by Carbon Trust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The PIA\u2019s recognition of the AmPrima\u00ae Plus solution reflects growing consumer demand for more sustainable coffee packaging.\u00a0Recent research\u00a0from Amcor reveals that sustainability claims positively influence 44% of coffee consumers when making purchasing decisions. One in five respondents indicated that they would forgo purchasing a coffee product if they perceived it to be unsustainable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cCoffee roasters are actively looking for ways to be more sustainable,\u201d said&nbsp;<strong>Giorgio Dini, Marketing Manager for Coffee at Amcor<\/strong>. \u201cAt the same time, they must preserve the freshness and aroma of their coffee, so any packaging change, first and foremost, needs to maintain product quality. Our AmPrima\u00ae Plus is the perfect solution for Nordic coffee leader Kjeldsberg, with whom we won this award. It is a mono-PE pouch that offers a high barrier to prolong the freshness of coffee. It runs seamlessly on coffee roasters\u2019 packing machines and is readily recyclable in most European countries as certified by Institute cyclos-HTP\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Designed in accordance with the Circular Economy for Flexible Packaging (CEFLEX) guidelines, AmPrima\u00ae Plus helps brands move away from a multi-material, non-recyclable structure to a mono-material solution that allows for easy recycling and bolsters brands\u2019 sustainability claims.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To ensure coffee brands make no compromise between sustainability and performance, AmPrima\u00ae Plus has been designed to run efficiently on production lines and maintain optimal oxygen and moisture barriers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFor many years, the Packaging Innovation Awards and Dow have inspired more sustainable packaging innovation. Amcor shares a commitment to a more circular economy, and has pledged to develop all our packaging to be recyclable, reusable or compostable by 2025. As of fiscal year 2024, 94% of our global flexible packaging portfolio has a recycle-ready solution available,\u201d Mr. Dini said. \u201cOur award-winning coffee pouch is one of these solutions.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Amcor , a global leader in developing and producing responsible packaging solutions has been recognised by the 35th\u00a0Packaging Innovation Awards (PIA) for its AmPrima\u00ae Plus solution for coffee.
