WILMINGTON, DEL. (Oct. 29, 12 p.m. ET) — DuPont Packaging has called for entries for its 25th packaging innovation awards, the sector’s longest running, independently judged competition.

“Over the years, packaging innovations selected as winners of the DuPont award have changed the way we live,” said Shanna Moore, global director of sustainability – DuPont packaging and industrial polymers.

“In reaching the program’s 25th year, we would like to particularly recognize breakthroughs that reduce food waste, a pressing need globally. The program will retain its focus on innovation, sustainability and cost/waste reduction.”

There is no fee for entry and DuPont materials do not need to be in the packaging structure. The deadline for entries is Feb. 28 – full details are available on the DuPont website.
