Connecting Consumer Insights with AHPs: Designing Elastics & Naturality
The processing industry is in change.
Consumers are setting the trends. Brands are driving innovation with consumer insights.
But what actions are we taking in the upstream processing industry? Are we developing the next polymer, or are we co-developing innovations that are directly tied to these insights?
The presentation will discuss how we connect consumer insights with elastic solutions.
To make our lives safer, more comfortable and more natural - BUT affordable.
We aim to turn meaningful business cases into reality. If you seek a more engaging discussion on innovation and sustainability in AHP, don't miss this talk.
