It continues to be true that a significant percentage of food never meets its purpose, that of nourishing the hungry.
This is especially true in developing nations, but not exclusive to them. Food wastage is common to all cultures. Better packaging plays a huge role in reducing spoilage and retaining nutrition for those who need it most.
WPO is committed to educating people about the value that packaging adds to Society, not only for food but for beverages, pharmaceuticals, and virtually every product used by consumers and industry alike.
We know that Packaging is an indispensible tool for every society on the planet.
