ความท้าทายอุตสาหกรรมบรรจุภัณฑ์ – Talent and Operation Size in Packaging Innovation

Talent and Operation Size

Last year, respondents told us that they believe developments in packaging are important. Yet, this year, those in food and beverage are telling us that only a quarter are actually taking an innovative approach right now. In this section, we take a closer look at how access to talent and operation size may be influencing this.

According to Packaging News, the packaging industry is expected to face a considerable drop off in skilled staff over the next decade – this is due to employees that hold valuable specialized technical knowledge leaving or hitting retirement age. While they might leave behind specialist solutions and machinery that can fulfil some of the physical demands of their role, their departure will see a lot of technical skills, knowledge, and expertise departing the industry.

“The problems faced by a lack of experience and longevity are particularly apparent in plastic production. There is an art to manufacturing the plastic web and you gain that knowledge from working with the varied machines over say twenty years. Those experts are still present in the industry currently; however, numbers are decreasing and newer entrants are Increasingly being attracted away from plastic towards other Industries. It’s likely that we will indeed face a concerning gap within the industry.”
