In 2009, Asia and the rest of the wor ld faces unprecedented challenges and throughout this

period, Thailand and ProPak Asia aredemonstrating their extreme resilience.

This month, Thailand was ranked the 19th most resilient economy in the world, ahead of the US in 28th place, following the recently introduced economic ‘stress tests’. This resilience is reflected in the success of ProPak Asia – that it is able to maintain its level of worldwide industry partici-pation this year.

This year will see a wide spectrum

of specialised events that include the ‘EU Packaging Seminar’, ‘Thai Star Packaging Awards’ by the department of Industrial Promotion and the Thai Packaging Association, and the ‘Plastics in Packaging’ conference.

These events will be complimented by the existing programmes of the Thai Packaging Centre under the Thailand Institute of Science and Technological Research, Ministry of Science & Technology, the Industrial Pharmacist Group in cooperation with the Ministry of Public Health, and FoSTAT (who will team up with the Agro-Industry

Patrapee ChinachotiChairman, Bangkok Exhibition ServicesPresident, Thai Exhibition Association

On behalf of the Royal Thai government, I would like to welcome all participants to

ProPak Asia 2009, and extend our full support to this important international exhibition and conference.

ProPak Asia has developed here to become not only the leading international processing and packaging event in Asia, but also one of Thailand’s most professional and prestigious exhibitions across all sectors.

Thailand’s processing and packaging industries have experience tremendous growth over the past decade, with Thailand being the second largest food exporter in Asia, and about half of all production being sold to overseas markets.

Message from His ExcellencyMr Charnchai ChairungruangMinister of Industry

access To world Technology

ProPak Asia 2009:

However, the rapid expansion of Thailand’s food manufacturing industry would not be possible without its high level investment in standards, technology and production.

ProPak Asia 2009 provides the platform for business that enables the region’s manufacturers to access world leading technology, to ensure that the highest possible standards of production are achieved for our expanding industry. ProPak Asia is not restricted to food manufacturing alone, and much of the technology and developments embrace a wide range of industries for which Thailand is fast becoming the production hub; pharmaceutical, cosmetic, consumer goods, automotive and various other industrial applications.

As an event representing the regional hub, ProPak Asia 2009 also hosts the ASEAN food science and

technology forum, providing a meeting point for Asia’s leading international experts and industry representatives to share information, identify the trends and develop the industry’s production, quality and standards.

I would like to congratulate the organisers, Bangkok Exhibition Services, for their professionalism and cooperation in bringing together ProPak Asia 2009 with the support of the industry associations, institutes and governments’ ministries, and I would like to wish all participants a successful and prosperous event.

HE Mr Charnchai ChairungruangMinister of Industry

Academic Council Association) to host the Food Innovation Asia Conference.

ProPak Asia 2009 also welcomes its largest delegation of ASEAN food science and technology institutes to date.

BES would also like to thank the industry associations, government ministries, international chambers of commerce, embassies, Thailand Convention & Exhibition Bureau, and the worldwide network of industry organisations for their full support in bringing together over 700 companies from more than 30 countries.

We wish all participants, delegates and visitors, an enjoyable and successful ProPak Asia 2009!

ProPakAsia2009ShowDaily02

It is my great pleasure to organise this ‘Food Innovation Asia Conference 2009’, which is part of ProPak Asia 2009. The theme of the conference is ‘Value Creation through Innovation in Food Technology’.

The event is supported by several co-organisers including the Agro-Industry Academic Council Association, Kasetsart University and Mahasarakham University, the department of Fisheries, the National Science and Technology development Agency (NSTdA), Federation of the Institute of Food Science and Technology in ASEAN (FIFSTA), as well as Bangkok Exhibition Services Limited.

On June 20, FoSTAT also put together the ‘FoSTAT – Nestlé Quiz Bowl 2009’, a forum for food science and technology undergraduate teams from different universities in Thailand who compete in competency and knowledge in food science.

We expect to have 60 teams from 60 different universities in this competition. It aims to promote relationships between academic agencies and private sector partners through the involvement of future graduates in the food industry.

Another new activity is the ‘Food Innovation Contest’, with teams of undergraduate students from different universities competing in technological capability to create innovative food products.

All these activities aim to build a strong foundation in science and technology to facilitate innovation along the whole food chain. We need to take this opportunity to strengthen our knowledge in food science and technology to help stimulate Thailand’s economy through innovation. At

the same time, it is essential that we build up worldwide consumer confi dence in both the quality and the safety of our food products to safeguard the health of consumers here and abroad.

May I take this opportunity to sincerely thank Bangkok Exhibition Services (BES), which has always supported our ‘Food Innovation Asia Conference’ and the ’FoSTAT – Nestlé Quiz Bowl 2009‘. n

Value creationMessage from Mrs Darunee EdwardsPresident of the Food Science and Technology Association of Thailand (FoSTAT)

Being aware that international trade is becoming more and more competitive, Thai entrepreneurs find it most necessary to upgrade their

management system to attain effi ciencies levelled with the rest of the world. We aim to maintain the competitiveness of Thai industries and to sustain our share in the world market.

The effectiveness of a management system relies very much on the tools employed. With a technological aid of global standard, you are placed halfway to a more extensive base of global businesses where trading partners from every corner of the world are now talking one global language.

GS1 Thailand of the Federation of Thai Industries has assumed a major role in putting the GS1 global standard barcode into effect in supply chain management. Its implementation has resulted in higher effi ciencies in many areas. Complexity reduced and time saved in inventory control as well as point-of-sale trading.

It has contributed to Thailand’s potential to compete in the world markets as Thai products are now of higher standard than before. It has also made product traceability possible, going back to the source of each item.

Global Standards To DriveThai Industries

GS1 Thailand is also the registrar of Electronic Product Code or EPC, which combines with Radio Frequency Identification (RFId) technology to provide a tool for storing product data on a microchip within the EPC tag. Its implementation is aimed to enhance product management efficiencies even further. We pride ourselves on being able to contribute to stronger existence of Thai industries in the global arena.

On this occasion, I appreciate the executives and exhibitors who realise the importance of GS1 system standard, one of the instruments that will drive Thai industries to internationalisation. I wish the organiser, Bangkok Exhibition Services as well as other concerned organisations a successful and productive ProPak Asia 2009. n

ProPakAsia2009ShowDaily04Top Global Trends Set To Shape The Dairy industryThere are six global trends that will

help shape the dairy industry over the next few years, according to

Tetra Pak data and market analysis along with recent research from GfK Roper Consulting and Euromonitor International.

The forecast, contained in the Tetra Pak dairy Index, a biannual report on consumption trends is designed to help dairy producers identify opportunities for growth.

Global consumption of milk and other liquid dairy products is expected to increase by a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.2 percent over the next three years. The index shows that in 2008, global consumption of liquid dairy products, excluding soy and dairy alternatives, reached a record high of 258 billion ltrs. This marks a worldwide increase of 1.6 percent over 2007 – an additional four billion ltrs.

market GrOwthOver the past four years, global consumption of milk and other liquid dairy products has grown by a CAGR of 2.4 percent, despite a sharp spike in

prices over the past two years, which saw milk prices increase by up to 75 percent in some markets before stabilising in late 2008.

dennis Jönsson, President and CEO of the Tetra Pak Group, said: “We expect two trends to continue to drive global milk consumption over the next three years: continued growth in emerging markets and a shift toward consuming more packaged milk.”

Leading much of the growth in the global dairy industry – 95.8 percent over the past four years – are emerging markets, such as India, Pakistan, China and the Middle East.

These markets are experiencing fast growth in the consumption of milk and other liquid dairy products based on growing populations, rising household incomes, new dietary trends and increased awareness and availability of dairy products.

For example, from 2005 though 2008, consumption of liquid dairy products in China has grown by a CAGR of 13.4 percent, reaching a record high of 27 billion ltrs in 2008. This number increases to 39.4 billion ltrs when

including soy and dairy alternatives such as rice, nut, grain and seed-based milks.

shift in cOnsumPtiOn PatternsAnother factor driving growth, particularly in emerging markets, is a fundamental shift in the way liquid dairy products are packaged and consumed. From 2005 to 2008, the global market share of unpackaged milk declined by 1.8 percent. during the same time period, the global market share of Ultra High Temperature (UHT) milk increased by 3.2 percent.

More than 31 percent of consumers are concerned about having enough money to live well and pay their bills. This is prompting consumers of dairy products to increasingly buy budget orprivate label brands when available. For example, in Western Europe, sales of private label products now represent nearly 36 percent of total white milk sales.

“In today’s economic climate, we would anticipate that many consumers will go back to basics,” said Mr Jönsson.

“For example, they may substitute white milk for higher priced, more value-added products like yogurt drinks or they may buy budget brands rather than premium brands. Even so, we expect the global dairy market to experience steady growth for the foreseeable future.” n

The company well known by its signature golden arches has revealed, in its Global Best Of Green 2009 report, that it aims to achieve 100 percent sustainable packaging for all its products

by 2010. Some of the criteria that the fast food chain considers for its packaging in moving towards this goal is in minimising weight, using recycled and renewable materials.

In a report earlier this year by the Environmental Leader, the burger giant also hopes to achieve objectives like educating and communicating with supply chain partners about sustainability; measuring environmental impacts throughout the supply chain; as well as fi nding ways to maximise energy effi ciency in restaurant operations. The company will also continue to integrate environmental considerations into its global packaging scorecard in nine major markets.

The scorecard builds on Mcdonald’s key packaging performance indicators, best practices from the company’s European and North American markets, and advice from outside experts and NGOs like Environmental defense Fund.

As for work already in progress, Mcdonald’s reports that as of 2007, 92 percent of food, packaging and tier-1 equipment suppliers had affi rmed its code of conduct. That is down from 93.5 percent in 2006, but up from 89 percent in 2005. The amount of packaging used per transaction, by weight (in pounds), has been trending down, from 0.139 pounds in 2005 to 0.138 pounds in 2006 and 0.135 pounds in 2007. n

US demand for green packaging – comprised of recycled content, biodegradable and reusable packaging – is projected to increase by 3.4 percent annually to US$43.9 billion in 2013,

using 59 billion pounds of material.Growth will outpace overall packaging, but will remain modest due to the

maturity of many products, and the fact that recycled content packaging has a large existing presence in paperboard and metal packaging.

US GREEN PACKAGING DEMAND(million US dollars)

Drivers Of GrOwthThe fastest gains are anticipated for biodegradable plastic packaging and plastic recycled content packaging. Biodegradable plastic packaging is forecast to climb nearly 13 percent per year through 2013. This growth is driven by increased price competitiveness with conventional resins, rapidly expanding capacity and lower pricing volatility than petroleum-based plastic packaging materials.

Additional stimulants include enhanced performance properties brought about by more sophisticated polymerisation and blending techniques; efforts by brand owners to improve the environmental footprint of their packaging; and legislative bans on polystyrene foam foodservice disposables in some parts of the country.

While recycled content packaging demand is expected to increase in line with the overall green packaging average, robust growth for plastic recycled content packaging will be aided by more concerted efforts to boost collection volume, an increased focus on the development of food-contact approved resin grades, and further sustainability initiatives by plastic processors and brand owners.

Gains will be moderated by slow growth for paper recycled content packaging, which is dominated by the large but mature corrugated and paperboard box segment.

reusable PackaGinGReusable packaging is forecast to expand more slowly, held back by marginal growth for drums, which face competition from larger formats such as intermediate bulk containers (IBCs). More favourable prospects are anticipated for reusable plastic containers, IBCs and other reusable packaging types.

In general, value gains will decelerate sharply from the 2003 – 2008 pace due to an expected moderation in raw material prices, especially for plastic and steel. The relatively long service life of most reusable packaging also limits the need for replacements, a factor that restricts growth in demand for new units. n

The strong growth in beverage closure demand at a global level is being driven primarily by the expansion of packaged beverage consumption

in emerging markets such as China, India, Russia and Brazil.

However, even in Western European and North American markets, where packaged beverage consumption is more static, new product development and intense competition between products and brands can be seen.

This, coupled with demands for more convenience and ‘on-the-go’ packs, environmental/legislation and technology is changing the look of the caps and closures sector.

Overall the highest percentage growth over the next fi ve years is expected to occur in the relatively young and dynamic categories such as drinking yoghurt, fl avoured milk, energy drinks and soymilk.

In sheer volume terms however, packaged water and beer are expected to account for the majority of additional demand – together accounting for over

Global Beverage closure Demand To Grow Strongly To 2012

An additional 220 billion caps and closures will be required to meet global demands over the next fi ve years. By Canadean.

50 percent of the total incremental closure demand by 2012.

Other key factors influencing beverage closure growth include:• A shift to larger pack sizes in some categories such

as beer and carbonates, which is affecting the size and type of closure used

• A general increase in the use of closures for liquid cartons in the juice, nectars and liquid milk categories

• A trend toward smaller pack sizes in still drinks, packaged water and sports drinks – where ‘on-the-go’ consumption is a primary driver of demand

Plastic closures are expected to account for the vast majority of the additional closure demand. In consequence, the overall share of plastic screw caps within the beverage sector is expected to rise from around 34 percent in 2007 to 37 percent by 2012. Sports caps are expected to double their share from two to four percent, while the share of metal closures such as steel crowns and aluminium ROPP caps are expected to fall slightly.

Within the closure industry itself, there is considerable technological innovation taking place.

Key developments include:• A trend towards more lightweight closures to

meet stricter environmental demand and save on rising material and energy costs

• Developments aimed at meeting changing consumer demands such as more ‘on-the-go’ packs, resealability, portion and ‘shot’ packs

• Greater use of wide-mouth closures in certain categories to assist drinking direct from the pack

• One-step opening systems for carton packaging• Resealable can ends/closures

Together these factors mean that caps and closures are currently a fertile area for new product development and a key means of adding value. n

Cama: CAse PACkersThe Cama Group from Italy, will be showing a new generation wrap-around case packer.

The range of machines includes the ‘FW’ wrap-around and display box case packers. The machines are to be integrated in complete production lines

for food and non-food applications. The electronic automatic case packers can pack the same product in two different case types, in relation to the requirement of the distribution network. The plant can change its format, depending on the different types and configurations of the product. The tailored system was designed to handle different product configurations at a speed of 30 wrap around cases per minute.

Cermex: versAWrAPThe four possible product selection/collation modules with Cermex’s VersaWrap are taken directly from the TS range of shrink-wrappers without sealing bar. This enables the use of reliable systems that have already been validated in the marketplace. The type of primary packaging (nature, shape, resistance) determines the most suitable module at the required speed.

Machine operation, format management and production parameters are handled via an industrial PC with a touch screen. VersaWrap is also equipped with a modem for remote diagnosis and assistance in case of problems. Size changeovers can be done without changing parts in 15 minutes.

Gruppo Fabbri:

AutoMAtiC stretChing MAChinesGruppo Fabbri’s range of automatic stretching machines is for packaging of

fresh foods such as meat, poultry, fish, fruit and vegetables on trays. The machines’ packing speed goes from 14 to 62 packs per minute. They can also be

integrated with automatic scale-labellers from different brands. The company claims that its Elixa range can save up to 40 percent on film consumption.

Heat & Control:

fAstBACk Blending systeMHeat & Control’s fastback blending system allows mixing snack, cereal or frozen food ingredients, and maintains the blend to the packaging stage.

Load cells measure the delivery of each ingredient to maintain blend accuracy within two to four percent, depending on product. Coatings do not build up in the conveyor pans, eliminating unscheduled cleaning downtime and sanitation costs.

The slow-forward fast-back conveying motion maintains blends with no separation or layering of ingredients.

KHS: innoket 360 lABeller

anritSu:

MetAl deteCtorThe dUW series of metal detectors from Anritsu has adopted the simultaneous two-frequency magnetic field detecting method, dual wave, and includes sensing technology such as auto setting algorithm and tracking functions.

The company added that the system offers easy maintenance, with its auto balancing function that eliminates the need for adjustments. It also has a one-touch attaching/detaching system and a direct drive system, which does not require a drive belt, and facilitates maintenance work.

The belt speed can be changed according to product needs, without making additional modifications to the system. The metal detector operates at a supply voltage ranging from 100 to 120 V/220 to 240 V (AC).

urSCHel: food ProCessor

With the Innoket 360, KHS presents a new generation of roll-fed labellers. Its features include a self-sharpening cutter, segmented vacuum drum and a gluing system.

The vacuum drum ensures simple, rapid changeover procedures. This drum has been segmented, reducing the handling weight from 22 kg to 6 kg. The self-sharpening cutter can be adjusted without disrupting production, as the cutter automatically sharpens itself.

The system has a modular design for the medium and high-capacity ranges (up to 50,000 bph) and is available in three different versions (GT, PT, KT as well as with clockwise or counterclockwise running direction).

The Comitrol Processor model 1700 by Urschel Laboratories is recom-mended for free-flowing, dry, and liquid products. This includes peanut butter, corn, chilli paste, coconut milk, rice noodle, and vegetables. According to the company, the machine has the versatility to meet size reduction needs. Standard operations include: comminuting, granulating, milling, flaking, and pureeing particularly suitable for fibrous and heat sensitive products.

Green plastics, also known as bioplastics, are usually fabricated from 100 percent

renewable sources . Whi le the production of plastics derived from petroleum emits carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere, plastics made from renewable sources (such as plant-based ethanol and vegetable oil), offer a net positive carbon footprint.

US-headquartered NatureWorks is one such company that been making headways in the bioplastic realm. The joint venture company between Cargill and Japanese firm Teijin, it is the first company to offer a range of commercially available low carbon footprint biopolymers.

renewable resOurcesNatureWorks’ proprietary polylactide biopolymer, Ingeo, uses 65 percent less fossil fuel resources to produce and is able to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 80 to 90 percent (compared to traditional petroleum-based polymers).

The Institute for Energy and Environmental Research in Heidelberg, Germany, completed a lifecycle assess-ment of its bioresin bottles and bottles made from PET. The analysis found that the recycling of post-consumer bioresin back into new water bottles offers environmental, energy, and package performance advantages compared to recycling PET back to bottles.

The study also found that making new Ingeo bottles from recycled material via hydrolysis (a chemical reaction that breaks down the post-consumer bioresin into lactic acid) enabled the material to be reformulated back into virgin resin.

all sOrteD OutAutomated systems being used today in the recycling industry have also proved that they can be used to sort natural plastic bottles from other plastic bottles with an accuracy approaching 100 percent.

To sort biopolymers from other plastics such as PET, HdPE, PVC and PS, equipment manufacturers use several different sorting systems. These include infrared, ultraviolet,

x-ray, colour ident i f icat ion, and laser.

Norwegian company, Titech, uses its near-infrared sorting systems to eject concentrated amounts of natural plastic. Unisensor, based in denmark, uses laser technology to sort out the different flakes at efficiencies of 96 to 99 percent while MSS Inc of Tennessee, USA, tested natural plastic in its Aladdin near-infrared system. The test by MSS confirmed that bioplastics emit a unique polymeric signature that can be used when separating various flakes.

WRAP, the international not-for-profit company based in the UK that helps local authorities to reduce waste, conducted an assessment of its own. Published in June 2008, WRAP concluded that: “NIR (near-infrared) systems can effectively remove PLA bioplastic and carton board from a mixed packaging stream.”

Obstacles tO climbMany will agree that the polymer’s time may have come at last, as early performance problems have been addressed, and manufacturing has become more efficient.

However, a report f rom Environmental data Services (EdS), shows that some issues still have to be resolved. Some forms of bioplastics, while made from

renewable biomass sources, are reliant on fossil fuel-derived energy for their manufacturing. Others, like Brazilian bio-propylene from sugarcane ethanol, would be able to fit into existing processing and recycling structures.

Another is a polylactic acid (PLA) product from Natureworks. Its fermentation technology reduces carbon emissions in line with those of recycled polyethylene terephthalate (rPET). With its lower density, it means less material is needed for the same strength product.

In addition, materials used for the manufacture of bioplastics, often sugarcane and cornstarch, remain an important food source. By using them for packaging, there is the chance of a hike in price for these commodities.

However, the call to support sustainable development of bioplastics still remains. As all raw materials have limited availability, the most efficient use of resources still wins the day. n
