Esko, the global provider of integrated solutions for the packaging and label industry, continues to underline the importance of sustainability in packaging production, helping businesses reduce their environmental impact and comply with evolving regulatory requirements.

“Sustainability is a core focus for our customers,” said Esko CMO Jan De Roeck. “As the packaging industry evolves, sustainability is no longer a choice but is now a non-negotiable business imperative. For Esko, this means supporting brand owners and their packaging partners who are under considerable pressure to respond to legislative changes, consumer needs and who might need support to accelerate their sustainability commitments. That’s why we continue to develop tools specifically designed to optimize efficiency and minimize waste across the entire packaging production process.

“Esko is acutely aware of the role it plays in delivering quality and operational efficiency gains for businesses through digitalization, automation and connection of disparate steps in the packaging development processes,” he said. “We are reimagining the entire process, driven by our S2 platform and AI, building solutions that enable businesses to minimize their impact on the environment by eliminating errors and reducing waste in the production process, while speeding up and connecting processes and devices efficiently.”

Jan was speaking at the launch of the latest Esko software suite, Esko 25.03, and ahead of a new webinar focused on empowering brands and their label and packaging converters to not only meet the growing customer demand for more sustainably produced packaging, but also to make more informed decisions that positively impact their own carbon footprint in response to a fast changing legislative backdrop.

“We’re proud to be co-hosting the Redefining Packaging: Sustainability Beyond Compliance webinar, which will examine the constantly evolving regulatory landscape and look ahead to how businesses can prepare for the challenges and implications that may lay ahead,” said Jan.

Organized in partnership with CarbonQuota®, the webinar on 1 April 2025 will focus on how data and digitalization in packaging are serving to unlock sustainability for their packaging and label converters

The free webinar will outline a roadmap to navigate sustainability in 2025 and beyond, including:

  • Insights into evolving global regulations (PPWR, CSRD, and more) and the growing need for brands to accurately track, measure, and report their sustainability impact
  • Exploring digital innovations driving sustainability in packaging
  • Learning how to measure success with carbon handprints and footprints
  • Gaining insights into how collaborative partnerships can achieve tangible results

To attend the Redefining Packaging webinar, at 10am EST/3pm BST/4pm CET on Tuesday 1 April 2025, register for free here.

A second webinar will also be held on Tuesday, 10 June, and will include a live demonstration showcasing how the latest version of Esko Cape palletizing software pairs with CarbonQuota technology to drive operational efficiency and measurable sustainability impact. Registration for this webinar is now open here
