AI investment urged to soften the tariff fallout

As the hopes for free trade with the U.S. continue to fade with each passing week, Canada’s manufacturing sector is coming under relentless pressure to find new ways to cope with the mounting threat of punishing tariffs causing irreparable harm to the country’s industrial heartland.

“Generative AI can be a valuable ally in enabling IMs to adapt their supply chains and applying efficiencies to help cushion the financial and operational impacts.

Despite Ottawa’s valiant efforts to mitigate the negative fallout from a fast-growing list of Canadian exports relying on the once-unimpeded access to the U.S markets, the early shockwaves reverberating through the country’s automotive, aluminum, steel and softwood industries, to name a few, paint a gloomy picture of what lies ahead for Canadian exporters over the next threeand-a-half years at least—barring a miraculous last-minute compromise with our largest trading partner to the south.

There is a lot to be said for the virtues of removing interprovincial trade barriers and embarking on major nation-building infrastructure projects, but the long-term benefits of these growth strategies may arrive too late for thousands of Canadian businesses facing existential threat to their survival now.

For these manufacturers, there may never be a more urgent and opportune time to double down on their investments in automation technologies and artificial intelligence (AI), according to the findings on a recent survey of Canadian industrial manufactures (IMs) conducted by leading market intelligence firm KPMG

Neatly summed up in a timely report titled Generative AI: Shaping the Future of Efficiency and Innovation in Industrial Manufacturing, the KPMG research offers valuable suggestions on how Canadian IMs can leverage the Generative AI technology to cope with the enormous mounting challenges posed by low-cost competition, inflation, climate change mandates, supply chain disruptions and geopolitical conflicts.

“That’s to say nothing of the risks of the ongoing (and unpredictable) threat of tariffs, which leave Canadian manufacturers particularly vulnerable and in need of immediate assistance,” the KPMG study says, singling out U.S. tariffs as “one of the most pressing obstacles for today’s IMs.”

According to the report’s authors,

“For example, Generative AI might be used to integrate external data sources (e.g., news articles, market data) to keep up with potential market changes and use these insights to help supply chains anticipate and respond to external factors that may impact demand or supply,” KPMG suggests.

“Furthermore, Generative AI can give IMs a view into their potential futures by simulating the impact of external factors (e.g., tariffs, interest rates, consumer price indices, supply chain performance), allowing companies to assess how different scenarios may play out and make more informed adjustments.”

As for worries about massive laoffs across most industries, the KPMG study larealy underplays such fears.

“In many cases, it is implemented to help employees perform routine tasks quickly and efficiently, and free them up to focus on high-value work,” the study asserts. “Rather than replace jobs and human judgment, Generative AI serves to augment human expertise and improve overall efficiency and productivity.”

In fact, increased efficiency and productivity were cited as the top benefit of Generative AI implementation by 28 per cent of the respondents to the KPMG survey, well ahead of other perceived gains like new product and market growth opportunities (12 per cent); increased profitability (12 per cent); increased personalization of services/customer engagement (nine per cent); and enhanced fraud detection and cyber-attack response (eight per cent).

As the KPMG report sums up on a refreshingly upbeat note, “Industrial manufacturers thrive on their ability to innovate and adapt to the world beyond their factory doors.

“This is as true today as it was a century ago as IMs turn to AI to drive efficiency, innovation, productivity, and profits, while responding to existential challenges in their path.”

The new Fanta flavor a bold, vibrant and fun summertime brand extension

Widely beloved for its bold flavor and vibrant taste, the Fanta brand fizzy soft-drink is sparking joy among legions of its Canadian fans this summer with the national rollout of the new Fanta Strawberry flavor to deliver an irresistible way to tantalize the tastebuds with a perfect balance of sweet and tart flavors.

Made, merchandised, distributed and sold across Canada in partnership with Coke

Canada Bottling, Fanta Strawberry is made with natural flavors Canadians have come to expect to deliver a craveable and refreshing beverage experience, according to its brandowner Coca-Cola Canada

“Fanta Strawberry adds a fun, sweet twist to the existing lineup of Fanta flavors,” says Coca-Cola Canada’s director of integrated marketing Jacques Blanchet.

“With a bold strawberry taste, it matches the vibrant and energetic vibes Fanta is known

Foreign Material Foreign Material

for.”

Says Blanchet: “Fanta Strawberry is enjoyed in several countries already, and now it’s Canada’s turn to experience the lip-smacking, fizzy taste!

“The arrival of Fanta Strawberry reflects Fanta’s ongoing evolution to meet the tastes and cravings of Canadian consumers, bringing them more bold flavors they love and enjoy,” says Blanchet, calling the new flavor an inspired addition to the brand’s existing Fanta Orange and Fanta Pineflavors.

As Blanchet explains, the launch reflects the brand’s ongoing strategy to expand its footprint with flavor-first offerings that permit Canadians to let go of life’s pressures and demands— instead encouraging them to revel in a moment of enjoyment with something they truly “wanta” enjoy.

“Whether it is hosting a Strawberry Core picnic with friends or taking a fun fizzy flavor break in the day, Fanta Strawberry is a fun way to enjoy bold strawberry flavor,” says Blanchet, adding that the Fanta brand has enjoyed double-digit growth in Canada last year, with that strong momentum continuing into the first half of 2025.

Available in a variety of sizes— including ml cans, 500-ml bottles and two-liter bottles—the new brand extension features updated, bright and eye-catching look to project the brand’s fun and energetic vibe and help the flavor stand out on shelves to connect with both long-term fans and new customers.

“The packaging, developed by our North American team, was thoughtfully localized for the Canadian market, featuring bilingual labels specifically for Canadian consumers,” Blanchet relates.

“The packaging was an important element for us because we wanted it to reflect the bold, playful spirit the brand is known for.

“The bright, eye-catching design brings fresh energy to the shelf and helps this new flavor stand out, while resonating with both loyal Fanta fans and curious new consumers.”

The new Fanta Strawberry also aims to tap into the Gen Z’s craving for more expressive and adventurous bold flavors with a playful twist, according to Blanchet.

“With vibrant packaging and a ‘don’t take life too seriously’ spirit, this launch aligns with Fanta’s mission to give people permission to pause the pressure and lean into a little fun, doing more of what they actually really ‘wanta’ do.”

Historic paper mill holds all the cards in its green journey

Founded in 1819, Bennington, N.H.-based Monadnock Paper Mills proudly boasts the distinction of being the oldest continuously operating paper mill in the U.S.

For an industry that has seen seismic technological and market changes in last few decades, such longevity is a remarkable achievement in itself, and it is especially extraordinary in light of the company’s unwavering focus on delivering fiber-based changes solutions aligned with today’s broad-based global sustainability efforts.

Today, these efforts extend across a broad range of everyday commercial applications involving some of the world’s biggest financial institutions like the credit card giant Mastercard

Since launching its Sustainable Card Program initiative in 2018, Mastercard has worked to transition more than 168 million plastic cards to recycled and bio-based materials—reflecting a growing push for more responsible alternatives.

Earlier this year, Monadnock Paper Mills became the first paper mill to achieve Mastercard’s prestigious Card Eco-Certification (CEC )—underscoring Monadnock’s commitment to sustainability, innovation, and environmental transparency.

With Mastercard’s CEC certification process being originally developed for plastic cards, Monadnock’s achievement a significant industry first for the global paper business.

Since no paper-based card had been certified until now, Mastercard refined its assessment criteria—a considerable task—to account for the unique attributes of fiber-based materials.

A comprehensive Lifecycle Assessment (LCA) is central to this certification, as it evaluates a product’s environmental impact from raw material sourcing to end-of-life disposal.

The CEC assessment validates Monadnock’s carbon footprint, material sourcing, production processes, and disposal considerations to ensure the highest standards of sustainability.

The independent verification was conducted by TruCert , a Canadian-based auditing firm known for its expertise in environmental assessments. Monadnock’s certified product portfolio includes Envi Card stock 28 pt and Envi Paper Card 30 pt options in

The focus on manufacturing fiber-based credit and gift cards with low environmental impact has earned Monadock Paper Mills a Platinum status in last year’s global EcoVadis assessment on corporate sustainability.

both virgin and 100-percent post-consumer waste (PC100) content.

According to the company, both substrates provide the industry with a viable, eco-conscious alternative to traditional plastic cards by reducing reliance on fossil fuel-derived materials, while maintaining superior quality and performance.

“Achieving Mastercard’s Card Eco-Certification reinforces our mission to provide high-performance, environmentally responsible fiber-based paper solutions,” says Lisa Taylor, Monadock’s vice-president of sales and marketin.

“It’s a meaningful step toward greater environmental transparency in the card industry and aligns with our broader Un-Plastic Initiative—helping brands transition to more sustainable materials without compromising quality.”

In a fitting follow-up, Monadnock has also introduced a new high-performance sustainable alternative to the plastic gift cards several weeks ago.

Branded under the name Renovo , the 30 pt Envi Paper Card is made from 100-percent post-consumer waste (PCW) and engineered to deliver the same durability, print quality and functionality as traditional gift cards, but with a significantly lower environmental impact.

With over six billion plastic payment cards produced annually worldwide,

their environmental impact is staggering: traditional gift cards alone generate 33,260 tons of carbon emissions each year.

According to Monadnock, Renovo cuts that impact by 53 per cent by providing brands with a curbside-recyclable, carbon-neutral alternative that aligns with growing consumer demand and corporate responsibility expectations.

According to Taylor, “Renovo showcases our commitment to environmentally responsible solutions that make a real impact.

“At Monadnock, we are committed to creating products that help our partners meet their environmental goals without compromising quality or performance, and this innovation exemplifies that effort.”

As Taylor explains, Renovo offers the look and feel of plastic and is designed with a multi-platform coating to integrate seamlessly into existing print technologies. Designed for superior print fidelity, Renovo runs flawlessly on digital and offset presses, delivering sharp detail and vibrant color.

“Brands don’t have to choose between sustainability or performance—they can have both,” says Julie Brannen, Monadnock’s director of sales and sustainable solutions.

The company’s impressive sustainability efforts have earned it the top-level Platinum status in last year’s EcoVadis corporate social responsibility (CSR) assessment—placing it among the top one per cent of over 90,000 companies assessed globally across the four key criteria of environment, labor and human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement.

According to chief executive officer Richard Verney, the company’s high assessment score (83 out of 100) reflects its dedication to sustainability: from carbon-neutral manufacturing powered by 100-percent renewable wind energy to responsible fiber sourcing certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC C018866)

“Our journey to a Platinum rating was driven by a company-wide unwavering commitment to meaningful action,” Verney states.

“This achievement reflects the hard work of our employees and partners, whose dedication made this significant accomplishment possible.”

In the pharmaceutical packaging industry, getting things right at all times is not merely a priority: it’s an expectation.

With stringent quality standards and zero tolerance for noncompliance, longevity in this critical and highly competitive business requires tireless dedication to the continuous pursuit of perfection, precision, and unfailing reliability in all aspects of the company, especially on the packaging lines themselves.

Just as choosing the right co-packing partner is one of the most critical decisions the big global pharma producers will ever make, choosing the right tech-

nology partner for their packaging equipment needs is arguably the most fateful and consequential choice for the contract manufacturers and packagers servicing those brands.

Founded in 1988, Montreal-based pharmaceutical co-packer Fillab is a beneficiary of a long track record of making wise capital investment decisions to support the company’s steady growth over the years.

Operating out of a multi-certified 25,000-square-foot facility housing state-of-the-art cleanrooms, the company has accrued invaluable experience, particularly in pharmaceutical packaging, since the early 2000s.

Manufactured by Capmatic, the monobloc Patriot SF tablet and capsule bottling line purchased by Fillab provides the co-packer with robust throughput capacity of 30 to 60 bottles per minute.

Employing about 30 full-time staff, Fillab offers a highly diverse range of services—including blister packaging, powder sachets, liquid/cream and tablet bottling, unit-dose ampoules, and secondary packaging for leading brandname clients in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and natural health product industries.

Recognized for its precision filling and packaging expertise, Fillab offers comprehensive turnkey solutions, making it a market reference for contract packaging services, reinforced with a deep-rooted commitment to quality, efficiency and regulatory adherence.

“Our company’s dedication to a culture of continuous improvement, where every challenge is an opportunity to innovate, learn, and grow,” says Fillab’s general manager, Jean-Francois Paquin.

“We believe that by constantly refining our processes and embracing change, we can deliver exceptional value to our customers and drive sustainable success.”

As Paquin relates, much of Fillab’s success has stemmed from its ability to adapt to the regulatory requirements of various countries. This has enabled the company to build an international client base and become a preferred partner for companies seeking packaging services for export-ready products.

According to Paquin, Fillab offers the same high level of precision and commitment for large production runs as it does for pilot batches. Its clients range from large pharmaceutical corporations to emerging nutraceutical brands and niche cosmetic companies.

“Navigating the packaging services industry means embracing the challenges of ever-changing customer expectations.”

“Navigating the packaging service industry means embracing the challenges of ever-changing customer expectations, evolving regulatory requirements, intense competition, and the demand for consistent excellence,” Paquin states.

“It is through resilience and adaptability that we turn these challenges into opportunities for growth and exceptional service,” says Paquin, praising the exceptionally high level of industry knowledge and expertise shared among the company’s highly dedicated and motivated workforce.

Says Paquin: “Across every department—including quality, health and safety, production, maintenance, warehouse, and administration—our highly skilled team is the bedrock of our success, driving excellence and innovation in every task they undertake.”

This wealth of in-house talent and strong work ethic matches the company’s unwavering commitment to using the best packaging technologies and solutions available.

Happily for Fillab, it usually doesn’t have to look far to find them.

As Paquin relates, Fillab has made the

most of its long-standing relationship with a nearby Montreal-based packaging equipment manufacturer, Capmatic Ltd., to continuously enhance and refine its packaging efficiencies and competencies over the years.

Founded in 1964, Capmatic is renowned worldwide for its expertise in providing custom-engineered turnkey monobloc solutions for high-speed packaging applications in the pharmaceutical industry, combining multiple packaging operations, from filling and dosing through labeling and cartoning, in a compact footprint.

“Our relationship with Capmatic, a partner of choice since our founding in 1988, is characterized by deep trust, shared innovation, and a proven track record of delivering excellence,” says Paquin, explaining Fillab’s recent decision to purchase a brand-new Patriot SF tablet and capsule monobloc packaging line, along with a SortStar bottle unscrambler, from Capmatic.

Installed at Fillab ’s facility several weeks ago, the investment is an emphatic statement of intent about Fillab’s drive to stay at the forefront of pharmaceutical

THE CASE IN POINT

Canadian corrugated producers well positioned to withstand the looming market turbulence

Headquartered in Brampton, Ont., the Canadian Corrugated and Containerboard Association (CCCA) is the national voice of the country’s corrugated industry, with its members include containerboard mills, corrugator plants, and related organizations from coast-to-coast—accounting for more than 90 per cent of all corrugated board produced in Canada.

In today’s changing marketplace, corrugated packaging continues to be the preferred choice for industrial and consumer shipping needs.

Even though corrugated cardboard has been around since the late 1800s, it is more essential than ever—with the modern business world relying on corrugated packaging to support and safely transport products around the globe to fuel the ever-changing economy.

As CCCA’s incoming new executive director, long-time Kruger Packaging career veteran Serge Desgagnés says he is optimistic about the Canadian industry’s resilience to withstand whatever challenges in may face in the coming months and, possibly years, of global trade volatility. The Canadian Packaging magazine recently reached to Desgagnés to explain his outlook.

QCongratulations on your appointment as CCCA executive director. Can you please tell us what has attracted your interest in this position?

A I worked in the pulp and paper industry for 44 years, with the last 30 of those years spent in the containerboard and packaging sector. I have also been on the board of directors of several containerboard industry associations since 1995.

After I retired in February of 2024, the CCCA contacted me to see if I was interested to become the Executive Director of the association. I accepted without any hesitation.

The containerboard industry has

been part of my life for so many years; it gave me the opportunity to stay in contact with my business friends and bring value to the association due to my experience.

QPlease relate some of your favorite experiences and achievements from you long career in the Canadian corrugated industry.

AThe best achievement was to convince Mr. Kruger to convert Kruger’s biggest newsprint machine to produce containerboard. With that move, Kruger was able to become a high-quality supplier of containerboard for the independent box plants in North America.

QPlease assess the current state of economic well-being of your industry in terms of revenues, capacity utilization, business growth, employment and other key economic indicators.

A The North American market is very healthy, mostly due to the industry consolidation which has happened over the last 10 years. The top four producers in North America represent over 80 per cent of the containerboard market. Consolidation helped to maximize the value, the cost and the quality of the containerboard and box business.

Operating rates are maintained almost always over 90 per cent with old and less productive containerboard machines shut down.

Even if the corrugated industry is

very mature, demand for boxes will always exist. The biggest advantage of corrugated is the flexibility and the ability of finding the best packaging for any kind of products.

Most box plants are equipped with state-of-the-art technology allowing them to offer the best packaging solutions. It is also the easiest product to recycle which makes it the best option for the environment.

Q What are the biggest challenges to your industry at the moment, epically in the current global trade climate, and the related tariff issues, affecting your sector?

A The containerboard and the corrugated industry are very much integrated across North America.

The Canadian producers have containerboard and /or box plants in both sides of the border.

For the tariffs, we let the federal government negotiate with the US. If they apply tariffs on containerboard and packaging exports, we will ask to match the tariffs for imports.

Q Are there any new programs or initiatives that we could expect to be unveiled by CCCA in coming months under your leadership?

A

We have started to work with CPMA members to help provide the best packaging for the produce industry. With all the new automated systems implemented in grocery distribution centers, our packaging members are re-designing the boxes and trays to satisfy their needs. It is very important if we don’t want them to switch to RPC (Returnable Plastic Crate). Corrugated will always be better than RPC for environment and sustainability, flexibility, food safety and quality.

Q How is CCCA addressing other industry challenges aside from the environment?

A Working in box plants is much more interesting than it was 15 years ago. The new box plants are not old and greasy anymore. The all have the most recent technology.

The new box plants are much more automated with bigger corrugators and finishing equipment. Our biggest challenge is to have Canadian schools include box making courses in their regular programs. There are several courses are available on-line or by the AICC International.

ON STEADY COURSE

Canadian paper packaging producers leading the way in closing the loop on packaging waste

Established in 1990, the Paper and Paperboard Packaging Environmental Council (PPEC) is the national voice for the Canadian paper packaging industry on environmental issues.

PPEC member-companies include mills and packaging converters operating across Canada, who manufacture the three major packaging grades: containerboard (used to make corrugated boxes); boxboard (used to make boxboard cartons); and kraft paper (used to make paper bags).

Plays a leadership role in helping to advance and support the paper packaging industry in a wide range of environmental issues, PPEC works tirelessly to correct vast amounts of misinformation about the Canadian paper packaging industry, while providing credible and authoritative analysis, insight and research on the industry’s environmental issues.

The Canadian Packaging magazine recently reached out to PPEC’s executive director, Rachel Kagan, for an update on the council’s activities.

QOur belated congratulations on your appointment as PPEC executive director. Could you describe your experience so far?

A

Thank you! Time flies, as I joined PPEC in February 2021. Stepping into the role of Executive Director (in February of 2021) has been a great fit, given my background in environmental and packaging policy. I’ve spent my entire career working with industry trade associations, so PPEC aligns well with my experience.

That said, PPEC stands out as unique in that we don’t represent just one part of the supply chain. Our members include mills, converters, recyclers, and suppliers of the paper packaging value chain, who are committed to environmental sustainability.

It’s been educational to learn how interconnected each part is and how they collectively contribute to our industry’s Circular Economy, long before that term became widely used.

Our industry is built on recycled content as its primary feedstock, and that closed-loop system has been in place for decades.

QPlease assess and elaborate on the Canadian paper packaging industry’s current environmental footprint and the progress is has made toward its reduction so far.

AWhen assessing the environmental footprint of the Canadian paper packaging industry, it’s important to recognize that circularity isn’t just a goal—it’s our business model.

Our industry has long relied on using recycled materials to manufacture new paper-based packaging products. Not only is our packaging recyclable, but it’s also made from recycled content, reducing pressure on natural resources and the need for virgin fiber.

By reusing paper fibers again and again, we’re not only conserving raw materials but also diverting valuable resources from landfill.

According to PPEC’s most recent Recycled Content Survey Report (2022), the average recycled content for domestic shipments of containerboard and boxboard is just over 80 per cent.

Many of our members also operate their own recycling divisions to secure a steady supply of recycled paper fibers, ensuring they can maintain a strong circular supply chain.

Rachel Kagan, Executive Director, PPEC.

While recycling is foundational to our sustainability story, it’s not the only part. Our industry is also focused on reducing energy use, renewable electricity, using less water, and sourcing fibers from both recycled materials and responsibly managed forests.

QPlease identify the most pressing competitive issues challenging the PPEC member-companies today?

A At the top of the list is recycling and Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), including expansion and evolution of residential packaging recycling programs across Canada, as well as the potential extension of these frameworks to the Industrial, Commercial & Institutional (IC&I) sector.

In addition, members are closely watching global developments in recycling and packaging regulation — especially the introduction of new EPR obligations in the U.S., and the European Union’s proposed Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR), which could have ripple effects for Canadian exporters and multinational businesses.

Q

How is the current global trade climate affecting your member-companies business, and their sustainability efforts?

A While PPEC doesn’t take a position on trade policy, proposed U.S. tariffs on Canadian paperboard and cardboard raise concerns about unintended environmental consequences.

If Canadian recyclable materials become more expensive, companies might shift to less sustainable alternatives, which risks undermining broader waste reduction and sustainability efforts, including those tied to plastic reduction strategies on both sides of the border.

This kind of policy uncertainty also makes it harder for businesses to plan and invest in long-term sustainability initiatives, including those that reduce carbon emissions.

Businesses need a stable regulatory and trade environment in order to confidently move forward with long-term strategies.

That said, Canada’s paper packaging industry has a strong foundation rooted in circularity.

Our business model is built around recycling and that remains key to reducing our environmental footprint regardless of trade shifts.

QPlease reflect on the paper packaging sector’s approach to environmental protection and sustainability.

ACanada’s paper packaging industry has a long-standing commitment to environmental sustainability, and deforestation is often misunderstood when it comes to our sector.

Most paper packaging made in Canada is produced using recycled content —over 80 per cent for containerboard and boxboar—according to PPEC’s Recycled Content Survey. That means we’re keeping valuable fibers in use and out of landfill, reducing the need for virgin materials.

When new fiber is needed, it comes from responsibly sourced forests, backed by third-party certification and governed by Canada’s forest management laws. In fact, the Canadian paper packaging industry uses very little freshly harvested wood, and by law, all harvested areas on public land must be regenerated.

It’s also important to distinguish between harvesting and deforestation.

Deforestation refers to permanent land-use change, and paper packaging is not a major driver of that. The biggest contributors are agriculture, oil and gas, and urban development.

QWhat are some of the most impactful environmental initiatives involving PPEC these days?

AWhile PPEC doesn’t operate environmental programs, we play a key role as a membership-driven industry association in supporting the environmental sustainability of Canada’s paper packaging industry through advocacy and communications.

We represent our members’ environmental interests in government consultations and stakeholder discussions, advocating for sound, evidence-based policies on recycling and EPR, and other environmental issues.

We also develop fact-based resources to help tell our industry’s sustainability story and support our members.

Another major part of our work is keeping members informed. Through updates and analysis, we help our members stay ahead of environmental issues, government regulations, and policy proposals.

We are currently focused on reorganizing and refreshing PPEC’s website to better align content with our work and to improve navigation for our members, external stakeholders, and the public. We want to make it easier for everyone to find the information they need about the environmental sustainability of Canada’s paper packaging industry.

We’re also updating our environmental fact sheets to ensure they reflect the latest

“We hope that welldesigned EPR programs will improve material recovery and reduce contamination.”

data and developments. One important addition will be a new fact sheet dedicated to Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), given how rapidly that policy area is evolving across Canada.

QWhat are some specific environmental goals, targets and objectives you would like PPEC member-companies to focus on in coming years?

ALooking ahead, PPEC encourages members to focus on several environmental issues including navigating the evolution of Extended Producer Responsibility.

As more provinces transition to full producer responsibility models, PPEC will continue to monitor these developments closely and report back to members.

We hope that well-designed EPR programs will improve material recovery, reduce contamination, and support clean, high-quality recycled fiber supplies—outcomes that are essential to the continued success of Canada’s paperbased circular economy.

Another emerging area of focus is regulation around per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).

As the federal government considers how to manage PFAS in packaging and recycling streams, PPEC’s priority is to ensure members are informed and prepared to respond to regulatory developments and requests for information.

Given our industry’s reliance on recycled content, it’s critical that any regulatory approach be evidence-based and carefully consider the potential impacts on recycling systems and the circular economy.

Q

Please decribe the PPEC’s international reach and profile.

APPEC’s primary focus and scope is Canadian so we concentrate on representing and advancing the environmental interests of Canada’s paper packaging industry. While we don’t maintain a formal international profile or direct influence within the global environmental NGO community, we stay connected with key industry associations across North America, such as the American Forest & Paper Association (AF&PA), the Fiber Box Association (FBA), and the Paperboard Packaging Council (PPC)

These relationships allow us to share knowledge, exchange insights, and discuss shared environmental issues affecting the North American paper packaging industry.

Q

Please describe the PPEC’s position on any future EPR legilations.

A PPEC supports Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) as a policy tool to improve the effectiveness of residential packaging recycling systems, as long it is implemented thoughtfully and backed by solid data and practical system considerations.

While PPEC members are not typically obligated producers under EPR regulations, our sector is deeply invested in the system.

Canadian paper packaging mills rely on recycled content as their primary feedstock, so an efficient and stable recycling system is essential to maintaining the supply of high-quality recovered fiber.

PPEC participates in government consultations on behalf of its members and recently submitted comments to Ontario’s Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks on proposed amendments to the Blue Box regulation.

Our submission focused on the importance of realistic, evidence-based targets; the need for high-quality performance and cost data; and the risk of expanding the residential system too far beyond its original scope.

We also made clear that while we support efforts to increase diversion across all sectors, PPEC does not support a regulated producer responsibility model for the Industrial, Commercial & Institutional (IC&I) sector.

Our broader expectations for residential EPR include greater harmonization across provinces, stronger consumer education, lower contamination, improved material quality, and ultimately, higher recycling rates.

But achieving those goals requires time, transparency, and ongoing collaboration.

In the today’s article we want to focus on OptiPrint, PowerPrint, DuroBlade and NEO, which offer users in the flexographic and gravure printing sectors, powerful alternatives to conventional doctor blades — delivering greater precision, longer service life, and even better alignment with modern production requirements.

TKM OPTIPRINT

TKM OptiPrint doctor blades, designed for gravure and flexographic printing, are multi-purpose blades, gentle to your cylinders, manufactured of premium carbon steel with a high chromium content. The fine micro-steel structure wears down powdery, preventing contamination from detached steel par -

ticles throughout the entire inking and doctoring system for a constantly high level of print quality.

TKM PowerPrint

For TKM PowerPrint, we use high-alloy tool steel that is produced exclusively for TKM Meyer. This special steel structure has outstanding wear resistance and avoids contamination of the inking system from residues of steel particles.

The steel is used in heavy-duty saw blades and in precision cutting blades. We have adapted the material to the requirements of the printing industry and, in cooperation with our suppliers, have geared it to illustration and packaging printing.

TKM DuroBlade

TKM DuroBlade is the optimal solution for highly abrasive inking, varnishing and coating systems in flexographic printing. The doctor blade wears down uniformly and cleanly, achieving the highest durability. Due to the extremely low wear during the production process, DuroBlade is also the first choice for abrasive coating systems, guaranteeing consistently high-precision coating and ink thicknesses.

The patented coating ensures uniform print

quality with a very low dot gain. DuroBlade has a corrosion resistant NiroPrint (stainless steel) core, which is gentle to anilox rollers and chrome cylinders.

TKM DuroBlades are now available in the TKM DuroBlades HL+ version for the use of anilox rollers with low cell volumes and full-surface engraved chrome cylinders.

TKM NEO

FRESH NEW CHALLENGES

CPMA helps form new binational working group to address the fresh produce industry’s plastic packaging conundrum

Just as the growing season never really stops in the modern fresh produce industry, summertime rarely means downtime for the hard-working Canadian produce industry group CPMA (Canadian Produce Marketing Association)

In late June, Ottawa-based CPMA teamed up with the U.S-based Western Growers Association (WG) to launch a working group to address the evolving landscape of packaging requirements imposed by both governments and retailers throughout North America. Bringing together dozens of grower associations from across North America together to discuss the current state of produce packaging, CPMA and WG proudly announced formation of the Sustainable Produce Packaging

Alignment for North America (SPPA) consortium, tasked with developing unified guidelines for use across the North American fresh produce supply chain, with a target completion date of December 2025.

“Packaging plays a critical role in enabling the sustainability of North American and global fresh produce supply chains—from ensuring food safety and minimizing food waste to mitigating packaging waste,” said CPMA president Ron Lemaire.

“The trend of diverging market and regulatory packaging requirements is a significant risk to fresh produce supply chains,” Lemaire stated, “hence the strategic importance of developing and adopting North American guidelines for fresh produce packaging.”

As Western Growers president and

chief executive officer Dave Puglia reiterated, “Packaging is key to ensuring the quality, affordability and safety of fresh produce.

“Consumers are requesting high-quality fresh produce from our growers and changes in packaging,” Puglia assserted.

“As such, the industry is facing new and aggressive demands from both the public and private sector—demands that are often in conflict with each other, and don’t fully recognize industry realities and progress.

“The intersection of sustainability with packaging must be addressed for the continued trade with our most important partners and continued availability of nutritious foods for consumers,” Puglia proclaimed.

As CPMA’s Lemaire relates, both CPMA and WG are actively engaged on the Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC)’s early proposals to constrain allowable fresh produce packaging at Canadian grocers.

At the moment, the ECCC is currently advocating for a significant reduction in produce plastic packaging by demanding that 75 per cent of all produce be sold in bulk or non-plastic packaging by 2026, increasing to 95 percent by 2028.

Expected to be released in the fall of 2025, the ECCC report investigates the cost implications of reducing primary plastic packaging for fresh produce in Canada, focusing on select produce commodities in order to inform a broader discussion on alternatives to plastic packaging.

The study also explores various options for plastic reduction, including:

• Eliminating primary packaging for hardy produce;

• Transitioning to alternative non-plastic packaging (like paper and fiber);

• Maximizing the potential of for other packaging formatting alternatives.

In addition, the ECCC report identifies cost implications of switching to alternative materials, including the product and the type of packaging change, equipment, operational inefficiencies, and increased labor.

It also comments on the impact of selling produce loose, as well as the financial concerns and consumer resistance to non-transparent packaging materials that prevent inspection of the produce by consumers prior to purchase.

Such rapid and aggressive changes will be extremely hard to implement on time without unleashing considerable new cot pressures on the North American growers and retailers, CPMA contends, and driving up consumer prices.

In response, the SPPA is calling for some premilenary policy steps that include:

• Developing industry-focused analysis,

“The intersection of sustainability with packaging must be addressed for the continued trade with our most important partners and continued availability of nutritious foods for consumers.”

One of SPPA’s early new moves to drum up attention to the issue in coming months will be the upcoming release of the consortium’s Roadmap to Sustainable Fresh Produce Packaging guidelines, to be released this fall.

Based on extensive industry research and empirical data, this roadmap directly confronts the complex challenges in fresh produce packaging, according to CPMA, advocating for a strategic shift in perspective.

As such, the document argues that a narrow focus on the end-of-life fate of packaging is a flawed approach that can unintentionally increase food waste, costs, and greenhouse gas emissions.

At the core of the report is the concept of ‘Functional Sustainability,’ a holistic framework that evaluates packaging on its performance throughout the entire supply chain—not just its recyclability or compostability.

The authors highlight the so-called ‘Sustainability Paradox,’ whereby the conflict between preventing high-impact food waste and responding to pressures to eliminate certain packaging materials.

The roadmap emphasizes that because the total environmental resources invested in growing and transporting produce are so vast, when a package fails,

that entire investment is lost.

According to SPPA, the fresh produce industry currently faces a “regulatory gauntlet” of fragmented policies and conflicting requirements from buyers, which stifles innovation and creates inefficiencies.

To navigate this landscape, SPPA proposes a three-part strategy based on commitment to functional sustainability; driving targeted innovation for different commodity groups; and advocating for a pragmatic and holistic science-based policy.

The report provides a decision-making framework based on three pillars— Upstream (material sourcing), Functionality (protection), and Downstream (end-of-life reality)—to create a holistic view of sustainability.

By placing functionality at the heart of the strategy, the roadmap aims to guide the industry toward integrated solutions that deliver genuine environmental, economic, and social benefits.

Other key points in the SPPA report include:

• Requirement for “Functional Sustainability,” which prioritizes a package’s primary role of protecting and preserving food to prevent waste. This approach considers the entire lifecycle of the package, not just its disposal.

• Addressing the “Sustainability Paradox,” whereby the fresh produce industry faces a conflict between reducing packaging materials and preventing food waste, which has a far greater environmental footprint.

• Regulatory and Market Challenges. The industry is challenged by a complex web of inconsistent national,

state and provincial regulations, as well as divergent sustainability mandates from different retailers. This “regulatory dissonance” leads to increased costs, supply chain inefficiencies, and waste.

• Three Pillars of Decision-Making. The report outlines a holistic framework for evaluating packaging choices by balancing three key areas: – Upstream: The environmental footprint of the packaging material’s sourcing and manufacturing.

– Functionality: The package’s effectiveness in protecting produce, extending shelf life, and ensuring food safety.

– Downstream: The package’s compatibility with actual, available waste management infrastructure for recycling, composting or other end-of-life pathways.

• Functionality is Paramount. Packaging serves critical functions beyond simple containment, including extending shelf life, ensuring year-round availability, and allowing for consumer quality inspection.

“For fresh produce, which is alive and respiring, packaging must often have a symbiotic relationship with the product to be effective,” SPPA states.

• Grouping for Scalable Innovation. The roadmap proposes classifying produce into four groups based on shared functional needs (robust, sesilient, delicate, and highly perishable).

• Call for a Harmonized Approach. The document concludes with specific recommendations for industry stakeholders, retailers, and policymakers to work collaboratively

• Key actions include prioritizing functional design, educating consumers, advocating for pragmatic Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) policies, and establishing clear, harmonized national standards for packaging.

Storcan’s MDR stainless-steel conveyors designed for continuous heavy-duty service in busy food plants.

NERVES OF STEEL

Why

Storcan’s stainless-steel motorized roller conveyors are gaining ground and traction in modern food production facilities.

In today’s food processing plants, hygiene, safety, and performance standards are constantly rising.

In response to these demands, a new type of conveyor system is gaining popularity, particularly at the end-of-line stage for box and crate transport: the Storcan stainless-steel MDR (Motor Driven Roller) conveyor, featuring Interroll’s MultiControl technology.

Still relatively uncommon in many North American facilities, this conveyor technology, when manufactured in stainless steel, offers a rare combination of modularity, safety, durability and adaptability to harsh environments.

That combination makes it an increasingly attractive solution for the food and beverage industry.

Assembled at Storcan’s central manufacturing facility in Châteauguay, Que., Storcan’s MDR line is built entirely in 304 stainless steel with a hygienic finish, making it ideal for production areas that must meet strict sanitary standards.

As such, it effectively resists corrosion, humidity, frequent washdowns and temperature fluctuations—conditions commonly found in meat, dairy, readymeal or seafood processing plants.

This material advantage clearly sets it apart from many modular or openframe conveyors, which often wear out prematurely or pose a risk of product cross-contamination.

Many leading Canadian and U.S.based manufacturers have already embraced the heavy-duty MDR conveyors in their operations, including several household brand names like Black Fly, Lassonde, Ragozzino Food, VegPro, Eska , Bridor and Aliments Asta , among others.

One of the MDR conveyors’ key attractions is their simple, yet highly effective design, whereby each conveyor zone is powered independently by a RollerDrive low-voltage motor (48V or 24V).

This decentralized configuration reduces electrical risk and significantly cuts energy consumption, according to Storcan, as the conveyor activates only when a product is detected.

Compared to conventional centralized motor systems, this results in substantial gains in both safety and efficiency, especially in sensitive food production areas.

The industrial-grad,e stainless-steel MDR is capable of high-speed transport of heavy boxes or crates, without com-

“It is a complete, futureready solution for many food plants seeking to modernize intelligently.”

promising on stability or safety.

The RollerDrive technology is ideal for contactless accumulation, and when paired with the MultiControl bus interface, it can control up to four zones and four sensors independently.

This makes it a strong choice for food production end-ofline or shipping areas, particularly in refrigerated environments where throughput and robustness are critical.

Thanks to its reduced mechanical friction, Storcan’s MDR conveyor also offers significantly quieter operation—an often-overlooked benefit that contributes to operator well-being.

Lower noise also means less mechanical stress—resulting in longer component life and more reliable performance.

Boasting full modular flexibility, the Storcan MDR conveyor enables for each motorized zone to be individually controlled, thereby allowing for:

• Contactless accumulation;

• Customizable speed and logic per zone;

• Quick reconfiguration of the line when changing product types or formats.

In facilities with frequent SKU (stock-keeping unit) or format changes, this flexibility becomes a direct lever for productivity and competitiveness.

Notably, the Storcan MDR conveyor features a simplified

design with minimal wear parts—meaning there are no chains and no complex belts—with only minimal mechanical tension. This design drastically reduces required maintenance—significantly reducing downtime as a result .

Additionally, if one zone fails, it can be isolated without shutting down the entire line—an essential feature for ensuring continuous operation.

All the MDR usage data—such as cycles, motor temperature, current, etc.—can be accessed via Interroll’s MultiControl bus interface. In other words, this conveyor isn’t just a transport system: it’s a smart automation module fully-aligned with Industry 4.0 goals.

By combining industrial durability, hygienic design, electrical safety, and energy efficiency, Storcan’s stainless-steel MDR conveyor stands out as far more than a simple conveyor. It is a complete, future-ready solution for many food plants seeking to modernize intelligently—without compromising on quality or flexibility.

While there are plenty of large and small conveyor manufacturers today chasing customers in the food-and-beverage sector, Storcan’s track record comprises more than 45 years of manufacturing and integrating automated production line solutions for the North American food and beverage industry—helping food plants across North America to modernize, automate and optimize their operations.

Delivering state-of-the-art equipment and custom stainless steel conveyor systems to support transformation, packaging and palletizing operations, Storcan’s core competencies include:

• Design and fabrication of stainless-steel conveyor systems;

• Integration of diverse technologies like processing, packaging, inspection, etc.

• Optimization of line control logic and automation;

• Expertise in sanitary food environments: meat, bakery, beverages, produce, etc.

• Delivering tailor-made, turnkey solutions.

ENGINEERING EXCELLENCE

Unlocking packaging line readiness through the three pillars of performance optimization

By Jorge Izquierdo

In today’s dynamic manufacturing environment, readiness is more than a state—it’s a strategy.

As companies navigate fluctuating demand, labor constraints, and increasing automation, packaging line performance has become a defining metric of operational success.

Titled Performance Optimization: Insights for Packaging Line Readiness , a new landmark report from PMMI, The Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies synthesizes extensive discussions from PMMI’s recent Top to Top Summit into a blueprint for readiness, built across three interdependent pillars that include:

• Vertical startups;

• Operator training;

• Integration of information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT).

For packaging professionals and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) alike, these insights chart a course toward smarter, faster, and more collaborative operations.

A vertical startup is not merely a rapid path from installation to full production; it is the gold standard of packaging line readiness.

Yet, according to industry leaders at the 2025 summit, too many companies still plan for post-startup performance dips rather than preventing them. This status quo is costly and unnecessary.

The report underscores a shift from reactive recovery to proactive preparation.

Companies that succeed with vertical startups prioritize early collaboration between OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) and end-users, begin-

ning at the RFP (request for proposal) stage. Key strategies include:

• Defining success early : Metrics must be agreed upon before installation begins. This includes clearly defined roles, performance expectations, and testing protocols like FATs (factory acceptance tests) and SATs (site acceptance tests).

• Maintaining personnel engagement : Sixty-eight per cent of respondents emphasized involving operations teams early and keeping them engaged through hand-off.

• Stocking critical spares: Nearly a third of respondents cited having inventory on hand as essential to a smooth startup.

From the OEM perspective, usability emerged as a top contributor to startup success.

Intuitive human-machine interfaces (HMIs)—featuring prescriptive fault descriptions and corrective action recommendations—were cited by 66 per cent of OEM participants as critical.

Comprehensive documentation and early-stage training resources were also were emphasized as essential to laying the groundwork for trust, accountability and effective troubleshooting.

Perhaps most importantly, both sides agreed that vertical start-up success depends on structured operator training and human-centric system design.

As one OEM leader noted, “Welltrained operators are not only confident in running machinery, but are also willing to take full control of the process.”

That ownership mindset is foundational to performance continuity.

The second phase of packaging line readiness focuses squarely on people.

In the face of persistent labor short-

ages and high turnover, packaging operations must be built around realistic training models that meet workers where they are.

PMMI’s research reveals that traditional training often fails due to its one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, workforce development must be rooted in:

• Customization and context: Training should accommodate language barriers, technical skill gaps, and shift-to-shift variability. The “shift phenomenon,” in which different teams produce different results, illustrates how perceived control can impact performance.

• Tackle legacy constraints: Some CPG firms still operate “islands” of legacy equipment. Hybrid solutions can bridge the gap, but the ultimate goal should be modern, connectivity-enabled systems.

• Secure the system: With increasing connectivity comes increasing risk. Cybersecurity threats—especially ransomware—often remain undetected for nearly 300 days. Building secure networks, remote access policies, and update protocols must be prioritized before breaches force the issue.

More than 35,000 packaging and processing professionals from around the world are expected to attend this year’s PACK EXPO Las Vegas 2025 exhibition.

• Bite-sized and continuous training: The top-voted strategy (57 per cent) was implementing regular refreshers at three- to six-month intervals. Specific suggest topics include simplified digital modules, delivered via learning management systems, and supporting retention without disrupting production.

• Hands-on verification: Operators should demonstrate their competence before advancing. One participant called for a “train the trainer” model to multiply expertise across shifts. Because the OEMs play such a critical role in enabling this ecosystem, effective interface design is paramount.

Intuitive HMIs, embedded with tutorials, QR-code guides, and visual cues can all be used to empower machine operators to learn and troubleshoot independently.

As one consumer packaged goods (CPG) director said, “If the machine runs well on first and second shift but can’t make anything on third shift, is it the machine, the people, or the materials?”

That question highlights the need for shared responsibility. Both OEMs and end-users must reject blame culture and embrace feedback loops. Training is not a static deliverable—it’s an evolving system of support, measurement and reinforcement.

The third pillar of readiness is the most technologically complex, but its rewards are transformative.

Successful integration of IT and OT enables predictive maintenance, real-time dashboards, and secure remote operations. Yet integration remains a challenge, especially when legacy equipment and siloed departments get in the way. To address this obstacle, the summit offered various actionable solutions:

• Justify and plan early: IT-OT investments must deliver both shortterm ROI and long-term scalability. This includes foundational infrastructure such as data lakes, edge computing, and industrial protocols.

Successful integration depends on the same themes echoed in the other phases: early stakeholder engagement, checklist-driven processes, and clear communication.

For example, participants recommended “cheat sheets” outlining digital maturity, minimum infrastructure needs, and roles across OT, IT, and corporate leadership.

Standardization plays a starring role. From PackML protocols to shared spec packages, harmonizing machine interfaces is essential for scalable, cost-effective integration.

As one panelist at the summit observed, “You’ll pay the price eventually— either in planned investments or in cybersecurity incidents.”

In addition to revealing best practices, the 2025 Top to Top Summit also uncovered a shared philosophy of readiness built on collaboration, continuous learning and technological foresight to yield some important recommendations:

• Define success clearly and early.

• Involve all stakeholders from start.

• Train continuously and contextually.

• Standardize wherever possible.

• Secure and scale technology intelligently.

For manufacturers navigating the complexities of 2025 and beyond, the upcoming PACK EXPO Las Vegas 2025 offers the ideal opportunity to do so. Now in its 30th year, the biennial event will provides a wold-class platform to access real-world case studies, best practices, and hands-on strategies that address the industry’s challenges.

As the premier packaging and processing event of the year, it will help attendees gain invaluable knowledge on the latest trends and emerging technologies across market sectors, while gaining fresh perspectives and ideas to spark innovation within their companies.

The Branded Group

Our folding grade Kallima is the only 3-ply FBB made right here in North America. Its unique high-bulk, low-density construction brings a host of benefits to every project.

Local construction provides supply peaceof-mind, a lower basis weight gives you a significant yield advantage, and our renewable manufacturing energy source means a low carbon footprint.

3-PLY PEACE-OFMIND IN EVERY BOX

EAST – WEST NORTH – SOUTH….

No matter where you ship, we have your back.

Canada’s national adhesive manufacturer announces the completion of our new facility in Texas.

Our two economies are intertwined like no two others.

We’re proud to serve our fellow Canadians. And if you need adhesives supply help south of the border … we’re here for you as always.

EOL GROUP EXPANDS LEADERSHIP TEAM:

MATHIAS GORLITT

AND MIRO SILVEIRA TAKE ON KEY ROLES

The EOL Group is strategically positioning itself for future growth with the appointment of two experienced leaders. With Mathias Gorlitt as the new Chief Sales Officer (CSO) of the EOL Group and Miro Silveira as President of Standard-Knapp (EOL Americas), the EOL Group continues to strengthen its leadership team. Both professionals bring extensive international experience and will play a crucial role in driving the group’s strategic expansion.

The appointments of Gorlitt and Silveira mark a significant step forward in the EOL Group’s growth strategy. The focus is on accelerating global business development, driving measurable progress, and setting new industry benchmarks. These leadership additions support the EOL growth strategy by laying a strong foundation for sustainable expansion into international markets.

“With Mathias and Miro, we are gaining two outstanding leaders who will enrich our team with their international expertise. Their experience in the North American market in particular will help us strengthen and expand our market position,” said Sebastian Jost, CEO of the EOL Group.

Since February 1, 2025, Mathias Gorlitt has held the position of Chief Sales Officer at EOL Group. With his extensive experience in the packaging industry, he will play a key role in driving the company’s continued international growth.

Most recently, Mathias Gorlitt served as Managing Director at Krones AG in Canada, where he successfully expanded the company’s North American business. His deep market knowledge and strategic acumen in developing new business areas make him the ideal fit for this newly created position within the EOL Group. His new role will focus on the strategic realignment of sales and the further expansion of the EOL Group.

Joining the leadership team as President of EOL Americas, Miro Silveira brings extensive leadership experience in sales and management. Most recently, he served as CEO & Sales Director at Bellmer, where he drove significant growth and innovation. With a background in mechanical engineering and an MBA from the Escuela Española de Negócios IEDE, he has established himself as an expert in building teams and driving business success in North America, Latin America, and Oceania. As EOL Americas President, Miro Silveira will focus on market expansion, sustainability initiatives, and enhancing the customer experience.

Small Footprint Low Maintenance

Whether you are handling cases, trays and packs or bottles and cans in mass or a single file we can help. Ryson Spirals need less floor space than conventional conveyors and are faster and more reliable than any elevator or lift.

Each spiral is built to exact customer specifications, and are ideal solutions to replace older equipment in existing buildings or for new installations - thanks to our modular design.

We also make a full line of Bucket Elevators for your bulk material conveying needs.

For application assistance or additional information, give us a call or visit us at www.ryson.com
