As of May 1, 2025, over 100 million people were impacted by EPS foam bans across retail, foodservice, and schools. These regulations are reshaping packaging requirements nationwide. At Huhtamaki, we’re helping our partners adapt. Our molded fiber and paperboard solutions offer sustainable alternatives to EPS foam, designed to meet regulatory requirements and support long-term sustainability goals. From compostable school lunch trays to recyclable egg cartons, we’re helping you transition with confidence. Navigating regulations isn’t easy. But you don’t have to do it alone. We’re committed to partnering with you to help ensure you stay ahead of evolving compliance requirements. That’s “Packaging, solved.” Reach out to your Huhtamaki sales representative or contact us here to start the conversation: https://brnw.ch/21wXbZu #PackagingSolved #RegulatoryAdvocacy

At Huhtamaki, we believe big dreams deserve even bigger support. That’s why, in 2018, we introduced Save the Dream – an employee benefit that helps dependents of our employees pursue higher education. Administered by Scholarship America, the nation’s largest scholarship manager, the program provides up to $10,000 in financial aid to eligible students. Since its inception, more than 250 students have received funding which has helped open doors to brighter futures and new career paths. As the cost of education continues to rise, programs like Save the Dream help bring the American Dream within reach for more families. Stay tuned as we share inspiring stories from our scholarship recipients in the months ahead. Read more here: https://brnw.ch/21wX02m

At Huhtamaki, we’re invested not only in the next generation of packaging – but also in the next generation of leaders. This month, we proudly hosted the Huhtamaki Sales Competition, bringing together talented students from the University of Kansas, Kansas State University and University of Missouri. The competition allowed students to gain hands-on experience in sales presentations and offered professional networking – all while showcasing the values, culture and career opportunities only Huhtamaki can offer. We were inspired by the creativity, skills and energy of all the participants and are certain the future of sales leadership is bright.
