A huge thank you to Peter Dickow from the Office of Senator Gary Peters for taking the time to tour Profile Films. We had the pleasure of hearing from Emerging Leadership Council led by FPA's Teddy Ehmann, who briefed us on the exciting developments the team at Profile is working on. Shoutout to our interim Director Danielle Diehlmann who was able to make time to come out to Grand Rapids as well! If you're a Flexible Packaging Association member and are interested in having your company meet with their Members of Congress, feel free to reach out.

When it comes to sustainable packaging for dog treats, the Stand-Up Pouch (SUP) is highlighted as an eco-friendly option by the Flexible Packaging Association (FPA). This lightweight option not only reduces global warming potential by significantly lowering greenhouse gas emissions compared to cartons and PET jars but also demonstrates superior material efficiency. 🐾♻️ With less than 1 gram needed to package an ounce of product, the SUP leads to lesser waste and has a lower environmental impact throughout its lifecycle, making it an optimal choice for dog treats. Navigating the path to sustainable packaging can be complex, but we're here to guide you every step of the way. https://lnkd.in/eEyQaSZM #FlexiblePackaging #SustainablePackaging #MorrisPackaging
