In sustainable packaging, small changes can make a big difference. One of the most impactful innovations is the use of labels made from the same polymer as the bottle. This simple shift improves recyclability, reduces waste, and supports the growing movement toward a circular economy.

As the European food packaging industry continues its decisive shift towards circularity, independent validation of recyclability claims has never been more crucial. At kp, we're proud to be at the forefront of this movement, working with leading endorsement bodies to verify that our packaging solutions truly deliver on their sustainability promises.

Sustainability requires collective action, with everyone playing a role in driving progress. However, is there a risk that upcoming developments in mandatory sustainability reporting may see some prioritising compliance over the transformative change we should aspire to?

Discover the hidden history of the packaging industry preserved at our factory in Gordonsville, USA - a historic calender machine from 1934. This piece of machinery was the first to produce rigid PVC films, marking a key innovation in the manufacturing world.

For today’s food brands and retailers, sustainability is at the top of the business agenda, so significant milestones in food packaging recyclability deserve celebration.
That's precisely what we're doing at kp with our recent achievements in North America - achievements that mark an important advancement in our continued commitment to designing packaging with recyclability front of mind.

As we mark 60 years of kp, we're taking a trip down memory lane with a look at the way that our visual identity has changed over the decades! We’re proud of our heritage, and while the appearance of our brand has transformed through the years, our commitment to innovation, sustainability and excellence has remained the same.
