Packaging Drivers

Profiting from the Asian Packaging Market: Understanding how it works

Share

' 

Packaging Drivers in Asia', a one day seminar designed to help packaging companies and end users understand the Asian market and how to work successfully within the regulatory environment, will be presented by Asian Packaging expert Stuart Hoggard at the Peterborough Marriot, 9 June 2011.

The comprehensive seminar programme is split into four sessions. The first covers Growth Trends in the region, which is experiencing double-digit growth in its

packaging activities and is now worth more than $208 billion annually. Session 2 explains the growth in Free Trade Areas and their implications for the market in packaging and equipment. The afternoon sessions will offer an insight into the strategy for Sustainability in Asian markets and an in depth review of new Chinese packaging regulations.

"Most people do not realise that Asian packaging regulations are even more comprehensive than the EU's and are changing all the time " explains Stuart Hoggard. "Packaging Drivers in Asia offers a road map for existing and future regulations as well as covering policy, terminology and symbols. It also explains Japan's Zero Waste initiative and extended producer responsibilities."

"Asia contains two of the top three economies in the world in Japan and China," he added, "as well as major developing economies in Thailand, Indonesia and Vietnam. While Korea, Taiwan and Malaysia are already highly sophisticated packaging users and manufacturers."

The seminar will offer facts and figures on all these markets and identify opportunities for European manufacturers of both materials and equipment.

Packaging designers and manufacturers, business development managers, procurement and export sales personnel will all find the information useful, as will those involved with compliance and legal issues. Delegates will all receive a free copy of an Executive Summary of the presentation.

Delegates can attend the full day for £295 or morning (statistics and opportunities) or afternoon (sustainability and regulation) for just £175. Refreshments and lunch are included.

All delegates will receive a copy of the 36 page Executive Summary

Companies will also be offered the opportunity to swap delegates between the morning and afternoon sessions.

Stuart Hoggard is based in Singapore and has lectured internationally on Asian packaging developments for several years. He is the author of several reports covering many aspects of the market and is the founder and CEO of the highly influential PackWebAsia (www.packwebasia.com).
