Presented at Sustainable Packaging Innovation Forum in Chicago on material choice trade-offs
Chris Bradley – Vertiv
Spoke today at the Sustainable Packaging Innovation Forum in Chicago on how to balance availability, sustainability, functionality, and cost in material choice decisions. Honored to share the stage with Renata Neri (Chick-fil-A), ♻️Jonathan Quinn♻️ Quinn (US Plastics Pact), Cait Green (Canopy / Pack4Good), and moderator Shira Lane (Atrium 916) — an incredible group tackling the realities behind “sustainable” materials. The key insight: sustainability isn’t a finish line — it’s a system of trade-offs. Our role is to make those trade-offs smarter, data-driven, and human-centered. Grateful to the Innovation Forum team for convening such thoughtful voices — and proud to have Veritiv in the mix driving practical progress.
