TOKYO, Aug. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Dow (NYSE:DOW) today announced the finalists of the 35th Packaging Innovation Awards (PIA). The winners will be unveiled at an award ceremony on October 24, 2024, held in conjunction with Tokyo Pack. Winning entries will also be showcased at the exhibition from October 23 to 25.

The Packaging Innovation Awards has been one of the packaging industry's premier competitions for over 30 years. It is the longest running independently judged awards created for, and by the packaging industry.

Evaluated for their breakthroughs in technological advancement, sustainability and enhanced user experience, the finalists were identified following a rigorous evaluation process that took place this June. During the judging period, 18 of the world's top leaders across the packaging value chain convened to lend their expertise to identify the next generation of innovative packaging solutions that will help shape the future of the industry. These industry judges represent cross-disciplinary leadership across various fields, including business and strategic planning, design, technology and R&D, sustainability, and academia. The panel also brings extensive knowledge in marketing and branding, retail, customer experience, product development, packaging engineering and performance, process and systems development.

"This year, the Packaging Innovation Awards had the privilege of receiving over 300 submissions from across the world – a record-breaking number of entries that has almost doubled since the previous edition. Participants have raised the bar for winning, and it is important that we spotlight the top innovations that will drive robust, lasting change across the industry," said Daniella Souza Miranda,  global marketing director, Dow.

"During the evaluation process, the judges had the opportunity to crystal ball the future while bearing witness to today's game-changing solutions that marry both sustainable impact and innovation. We recognize the cutting-edge technology and smart use of the renewable materials ecosystem to promote design for recyclability and ideas to reduce local waste. These advancements are simultaneously pushing the boundaries of engaging brand user experiences, making packaging more interactive, creative and responsible than ever before. We look forward to October with immense excitement, and to unveiling this edition's winners. It is important that as an industry, we continue to push the boundaries of what is possible," said David Luttenberger, the jury chairperson for the 35th edition of the PIA and global packaging director for Mintel Group Ltd.
