AGP Executive Report
Last update: 7 hours agoPackaging Pressure: A new EU study flags that plastic packaging is still rising across Europe, up 11% from 2011 to 2025, with food and beverage making up 97% of packaging weight—highlighting why beverage brands are preparing for reuse and return systems under the EU’s PPWR. Reuse & Closures: Amcor is urging beverage producers to rethink closures and plan for deposit return schemes as reuse targets ramp up (10% by 2030, 40% by 2040). Food Tech & Materials: AMSilk and Ajinomoto Foods Europe expand their silk-protein partnership, moving toward dedicated industrial-scale production in France—another step for alternative protein and sustainable ingredient supply chains. Health & Food Industry Relevance: ESMO GI 2026 real-world data stresses that completing curative-intent treatment matters for localized gastric/GEJ adenocarcinoma, while separate research on early-onset colorectal cancer points to a distinct clinical pattern. Industry Watch: A German row over sick-leave rules requiring a doctor’s note on day one is also likely to ripple into hospitality and food staffing planning.
