Revisit from Michigan State University – for the fourth year in a row

On the 20th of May, Packbridge was happy to once more  receive a visit from Professor Pascal Kamden and a group of 22 students from Michigan State University, School of Packaging in the United States.

As part of the students’ education, Michigan State University organized a trip to several European countries during a five-week period. Packbridge took part in the program for the fourth year i a row.

Johan Mårstensson presented Packbridge and the open innovation platform, OpenUp, for the students and posed an open question – “What is Sustainable Packaging?”. A female student said, “It’s about closed loop and product reusability”.

The second speaker of the day, Vahid Sohrabpour, PhD in Packaging Logistics at Lund University Campus Helsingborg, presented his research on how Tetra Pak milk containers gets handled in the logistics chain in Thailand, China and Kenya where secondary packaging often suffer through more than they are primarily designed for.

Mats Johnsson, Lund University and Campus Helsingborg, leads the group’s visit to Sweden the program include visits to Tetra Pak in Lund and Scanfill in Ystad, among others.

We look forward to Michigan State University’s visit next year!
