Today, the shift to eco-friendly practices is a non-negotiable business need. Moving towards truly sustainable business practices requires enthusiasm for the environment and, with that, it also needs a clear and profitable business model that works for all stakeholders. This is particularly irrefutable in the packaging industry, which is experiencing transformation as the demand for sustainable packaging solutions continues to grow. To take the discussions on sustainable packaging solutions forward, Lara Botta, Vice President of Botta EcoPackaging, has joined the Sustainable Packaging Summit 2026 as a content partner, hosted by Packaging Europe.
Commencing this partnership, Lara Botta recently participated in a crucial industry webinar on June 16th, 2026. The webinar was hosted by Packaging Europe as part of the Sustainable Packaging Summit 2026 and focused on how companies can build a strong business case for sustainability in packaging by aligning environmental goals with profitability, investment, and stakeholder value.
Bringing CFOs and Shareholders on the Path to Sustainable Transformation in Packaging
For a long time, financial departments and sustainability strategists have worked in silos. The biggest challenge for modern supply chains and packaging leaders is answering a fundamental question: How do we bring the CFO and shareholders along on the journey of sustainable transformation in packaging? During the webinar, industry leaders discussed strategies needed to create a solid framework for ecological changes. The insights emphasized that the transition to circularity is as much a financial strategy as it is an environmental one.
Businesses can build a strong financial case for sustainable packaging by seeing sustainability as a smart, long-term goal, instead of an added expense. Waiting to act brings more financial and regulatory liabilities, such as with the upcoming PPWR, which is going to completely change the compliance standards across the industry. During the webinar, Lara pointed on the crucial detail of how these regulatory and cost pressures affect SMEs the most, as they don’t have the same abundance of resources as big corporations to take sudden actions on these changes. Hence, we all need to start TODAY!
Next Steps for Sustainability Leaders
To successfully bring together operations and finance, leaders need to stop pitching projects purely on environmental merits and start positioning sustainable transformation as an essential tool for managing business risks.
