After the success of the first Reusable Packaging Fair, we would like to invite you to the next edition on Tuesday 19 November 2024 in congress centre 1931 in ‘s-Hertogenbosch. The Reusable Packaging Fair is organised by Mission Reuse, a collaboration between Natuur & Milieu, Enviu and Fair Resource Foundation.
Reusable packaging is an important step towards a circular economy in 2050. The Reusable Packaging Fair brings together all stakeholders and gives a boost to the transition from disposable to reuse.
Program reusable packaging fair 2024
The Reusable Packaging Fair focuses on reusable packaging on the Dutch and Belgian market, in all sectors, from consumer packaging to B2B packaging. Get to know reusable packaging, logistics solutions, cleaning systems and technological support on the market square. And immerse yourself in a breakout session to learn more about hygiene, washing, logistics and return points, standardization, collaboration, consumer behavior, environmental benefits, financing the transition, practical examples from other countries and much more.
Hester Klein Lankhorst (director Verpact) and Rob Buurman (director Fair Resource Foundation / Mission Reuse) will share their vision on reuse during the plenary opening. Marc Pruijn (Rijkswaterstaat) will guide the opening and ask provocative questions. The full program can be found here.
