  1. Industry Executive PanelFPPA Conference Bob Zoelle Sales Director – North America DuPont Cyrel® Packaging Graphics

  2. Yogi Berra once said: • “ The future ain’t what it used to be”

  3. Packaging Industry Trends • Globalization • Emerging and low-cost markets impacting packaging • Regulatory issues • Sustainability • Retailer’s / CPG’s are leading the way to reduce environmental footprint • Consumers are buying with the environment in mind • Paper vs. Plastic • Each segment is trying to gain a competitive advantage • Environmental impact – which best addresses Wal*Mart’s 7 R’s and other metrics • Counterfeiting • A booming industry

  4. Consumer Packaged Goods Companies are increasingly active in sustainable packaging Some of their initiatives around packaging : • Reduce packaging weight • Reduce Greenhouse gas emissions • Carbon Labeling • Biodegradable alternative to plastic (PLA…) • Maximizing the use of recycled materials • LCA studies to reduce the environmental burden • Add eco-labels on their packaging • Waste Management Printing is starting to be on their radar screen when thinking about green packaging

  5. DuPont & the Packaging Market • Packaging cuts across many business units. • Cyrel® Packaging Graphics • Authentication • Ethylene Co-Polymers • DTF • Ti02 • Protein Technologies • DuPont Packaging >$2Bn revenues is strategic to DuPont (~9% of total revenues) • A global business infrastructure

  6. Corrugated Market Trends • ReducedTurnaround time • Higher-end Graphics • Continues to rise in North America • Shift to digital technology • Printing plates / direct printing • Lighter weight liners • Cost is the biggest factor • Impact on printing • Lighter weight mounts • Safety and ease of handling are drivers

  7. How Will Tradeshops Remain Competitive? • Improve productivity • Improve quality • Expand globally • Reduce waste • Environmental footprint

  8. Where can DuPont help? • Deliver Productivity Advancements • Reduce mounting time with automated workflows • Shift to digital to improve workflow efficiencies • Provide Improved Plate Offering • Introducing several new solvent and thermal plates in 2008 • New solvent digital technology to reduce fluting • Improved solvent high ink transfer plate – Flex. Pkg. • Improve your environmental footprint • Convert customers to a new “low odor” solvent • New sheet corrugated plate that reduces solvent usage and stillbottom waste – a sheet “I” plate opportunity • Expand your business globally • Connect you with global DuPont packaging colleagues

  9.
