Driving sustainability in the packaging market

Sun Chemical has organised a Corporate Sustainability Committee to further strengthen its approach to addressing the sustainability needs of the packaging industry.

The development of sustainable packaging solutions has accelerated at Sun Chemical in the past 10 years as awareness of environmental issues has dramatically increased, as has demand for cutting and recycling household waste and reducing carbon emissions and other pollutants. Consequently, Sun Chemical’s Corporate Sustainability Committee will further strengthen its approach to addressing the sustainability needs of the packaging industry.

Comprising eight executive leaders, including Myron Petruch, Carlo Musso, Chris Parrilli, Fernando Tavara, Robert Fitzka, Greg Hayes, Russell Schwartz and Jim Van Horn, the committee will work together to guarantee company-wide engagement in sustainability initiatives and will build and oversee the company’s sustainability strategy, ensuring that proper resources are assigned for timely and effective implementation.

 Nicolas Bétin will assume the role of Sustainability Business Leader for all of Sun Chemical and Dr Nikola Juhasz will become the Technical Director of Sustainability. Other stakeholders across all divisions and regions at Sun Chemical will also play a key role in a structured approach that will further advance Sun Chemical’s efforts for more sustainable technologies within the various packaging markets.
