Turning to this month’s issue, the March eMag cover story tackles the age of EPR. By 2030, nearly a fifth of the U.S. population is expected to subject to Extended Producer Responsibility laws, but packaging suppliers and the cold foods companies who rely on them cannot wait years – or in some cases, even months – to comply.
Our latest Cold Chain Perspectives columns comes from Poppy Hill at Gresham Smith and examines the “box-in-box” approach – a powerful combination of durability, constructability and lifecycle efficiency when cold storage space is urgently needed.
David Feder, RDN, our group technical editor, reports on how the new Dietary Guidelines for Americans, the MAHA movement and more will influence cold foods formulation.
Plus, a look at some of the latest in cold and frozen mealtime solutions.
