Dow (NYSE:DOW) announced today the winners of the 35th Packaging Innovation Awards (PIA). The winners were unveiled during an awards ceremony held in conjunction with Tokyo Pack 2024, where the winning entries will be showcased from October 23 to 25.

Prior to the awards ceremony, an international jury of 18 experts from across the packaging value chain convened in Bangkok this June to evaluate every nomination. From there, a shortlist of 28 winners was identified, selected for their ability to demonstrate excellence across up to three critical criteria, including technological advancement, sustainability, and enhanced user experience.

“This year’s entries reflect not just the progress of innovation, but also the cumulative achievement of years of creative problem-solving around global challenges. The diversity of entries has been exceptional. From advanced materials that extend product shelf life to designs that significantly reduce packaging waste, the innovations we have seen demonstrate the industry’s capacity to address complex challenges. The awards not only celebrate current achievements but also set the stage for future advancements in the global packaging landscape,” said Karen S. Carter, President of Packaging & Specialty Plastics, Dow. 

“With Asia’s role as the world’s manufacturing hub, hosting the Packaging Innovation Awards in the region for the first time marks a significant milestone. And the industry has responded magnificently with nearly half of this year’s submissions originating from Asia.

David Luttenberger, the jury chairperson for the 35th edition of the PIA and global packaging director for Mintel Group Ltd., added, “After more than a decade of sitting as a judge, the greatest reward has been the ability to innovate and create new paths of recognition.
