THIS issue has many interesting news from processing and packaging companies. One that stands out is the case study shared by The Bühler Group on its role in helping Spanish olive processor Grupo Elayo develop a new healthy ingredient out of olive seeds. What an ingenious and enterprising way to use up by-products.
Does it take genius to turn something like seeds into a new ingredient? Like any inventor or food scientist knows, it takes more than a brilliant idea, of course.
But one thing that needs no high IQ, but just plain common sense - and serious concern for the environment - is taking part in the recycling of packaging.
To know what's going on in this sector, we talked to Tetra Pak’s Jeff Fielkow, Cluster Leader Environment for South Asia, East Asia & Oceania, on the company’s recycling efforts in Asia.
Also for this issue, we interviewed Martial Beck, the Director of Business Development for Eau De Coco, a producer of coconut water and coconut meat in the Philippines. The budding company has begun exporting its products and is looking to expand its market in China.
Meanwhile, we also continue our reporting on automation and the Internet of Things on pages 32-35 focusing on traceability and food safety, with featured companies like Barilla and Muddy Boots, plus an article by Tom Egan, vice president, Industry Services, PMMI, The Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies.
Finally, we're happy to be at ProPak Asia again this year - and most likely you will be there too.
