Wacław Wasiak

Acting as the representative of companies associated
in the Chamber and taking into account their
opinions and interests, the Polish Chamber of Packaging
cooperates with bodies of the legislative branch
(the Sejm - Lower House of Polish Parliament and the
Senat - Upper House of Polish Parliament) and the
executive branch (central and regional institutions of
national and self-government administration) in determining
legal, economic and organisational conditions
favouring the development of packaging industry and
market. In particular, the Chamber actively participates

other organisations of entrepreneurs’ self-government

Confectionery Market - An Affordable Luxury
|
|
We are living in tough economic times. While shoppers are modifying
their overall buying behavior, the confectionery market seems to be
flourishing as consumers are still making room for small indulgences.

Speciality Packaging, a business unit of Crown Holdings, Inc. about
the positive outlook for the confectionery market and the important role
metal packaging is playing in brand success.Q: The confectionery market seems to be thriving

forecasts for confectionery sales have proved to be wellfounded.[...]

Environmental Aspects of Packaging
|
|
|
Hanna Żakowska
|
European Union guidelines included in Directive
94/62/EC defined the essential requirements of packaging
with regards to environmental protection. Those
guidelines have been incorporated into the Polish legislation
and they oblige to reduce the negative impact on
the environment of substances used for the manufacture
of packaging, and to reduce the quantity of packaging
waste so that:
-- Volume and mass of packaging is kept to the minimum
needed for the packaging to fulfil its functions,
considering the customers’ expectations,
-- The packaging is designed and manufactured in
a way permitting its repeated use and subsequent
recycling or, should that prove impossible, permits
only recycling, and should recycling prove impossible
either, another form of recovery,
-- The[...]

Polyolefine Composite Film Containing Mineral Raw Materials - Biologically Active
|
|
|
Bohdan Czerniawski Wojciech Kalinowski Anna Sip
|
During recent years in the world technique intensive research aimed
at protecting food against the action of microorganisms as the result
of the introduction of substances of bactericidal or at least bacteriostatic
activity into packaging material instead of, as it has taken place
so far, application of preservatives in food, has been carried out. The
achievement of this target enables to avoid imposing a load of applied
chemical substances to food that, although formally acceptable, however,
more and more are generally disputed by nutritionists and unfavourably
looked upon by many consumers.During recent years in the world technique intensive
research aimed at protecting food against the action of

The Private Label Effect
|
|
|
Jennifer Sprance
|
The interest in private label isn’t slowing, even as
the global economy strengthens. According to The NPD
Group’s “Private Label Perceptions, Usage Patterns
and Intentions" released in July 2009, 24 percent of
all food and beverages served in American homes in
2008 were store brands, up from 18 percent in 1999.
In addition, a recent study by GfK Roper found that 91
percent of shoppers who say they switched from buying
name brands to buying store brands during the past
year will continue buying the store brand after the recession
ends.
So what’s behind the continued interest in private
label? Beyond just cost savings, consumers are finding
a variety of high quality - and even innovative - private
label brands on the shelf across product categories. In

The Use of Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene (BOPP) Films for In Mould Labelling (IML)
|
|
|
Andrzej Kornacki
|
Various films are used in the production of labels for
decorating containers in IML. The type of the film to be
applied depends on the final visual effect required after
injection. There are various films, such as:
cavitated/voided (giving an "orange peel" effect after
injection)
* white pigmented (glossy after injection)
* transparent
* other (metallised, barrier, insulating, increased ink
receptivity, 3-D).
The market shows that the majority of product manufacturers,
which pack their products using containers of
less than 1 litre capacity, prefer a matt surface with an "orange
peel" effect. This effect is achieved by the collapse
of the voided structure, during injection, hence the necesOPAKOWANIE
