What You Can Experience at the Booth

Creating New Value Through Co-Creation with Partners

Discover a range of solutions developed through co-creation with our partners. By collaborating with companies across the value chain and working toward a more sustainable society, we are creating new value and exploring the future possibilities of packaging.

Co-Creation Initiatives Shaping the Future of Packaging
Selected initiatives

[From Waste to Resource: Initiatives Toward a Decarbonized Society]

Together with partner companies, we aim to establish RePOS®, a fully circular recycling model for polystyrene.
At the venue, we will introduce our initiatives with Yokkaichi City, Mie Prefecture, including environmental education and other activities aimed at raising environmental awareness in the local community.

[De-inking and Delamination Technology for Flexible Packaging Recycling]

As part of a joint initiative with partner companies to promote the material recycling of flexible packaging through de-inking and delamination technologies, we will introduce our efforts to standardize evaluation and testing conditions through the development and publication of a unified protocol.

[PFAS- and Plastic-Free Packaging Technology: "Morro Coating"]

Morro Coating is a plant-based barrier coating developed by a start-up spun out of the University of Cambridge.
We will introduce a collaborative initiative between DIC and its partner company.

Go Beyond Seeing—Experience DIC's Solutions Through Augmented Reality (AR)

Through exclusive AR content available only at the venue, experience DIC's technologies and get a closer look at manufacturing sites that are normally out of view.
