Last week, we attended Coast Summit 2024 at the Coast Film & Music Festival in Laguna Beach, CA—huge thanks to A New Earth Project, Wes Carter, Don Meek, and the whole Atlantic Packaging team for letting us tag along! This incredible event brought together visionary leaders and changemakers dedicated to tackling sustainability challenges head-on. Our biggest takeaway? The power of imperfect solutions, policies, technologies, and innovations that may not be flawless but represent real, impactful progress in the fight against climate change.

'As the JR foods application shows, cost-savings and sustainability goals can coexist. Atlantic Packaging, a supplier of secondary packaging systems and solutions, partnered with Cruz Foam to add a lightweight solution for Wild Idea Buffalo Co.. Recently, Wild Idea Buffalo replaced its expanded polystyrene (EPS) foam cooler with the biobased Cruz Cool alternative for the direct-to-consumer shipments of its wild buffalo meat. The alternative packaging material features a six-panel pinwheel design engineered to fit seamlessly within a corrugated exterior box. According to Cruz Foam, approximately 70% of any alternative barrier packaging is made from certified upcycled food waste, which can be used to produce compost feedstock. “We’re delighted to see not only match the peak performance of our existing material, but the new material far surpassed it,” says Phil Graves, CEO at Wild Idea Buffalo Company. “So it allows us to have a better environmental footprint, but we can actually get our product to customers via ground shipping with far less dry ice and cost.” Currently, the foam is added manually to erected cases, but automation is possible. "In the cooler space, there are a few companies working on solutions to erect a case, load insulation, and present packers with a partially assembled cooler," says Kyle Pischel, packaging engineer with Atlantic Packaging.'

How much do you know about what your packages are shipped in? We went to West Cliff to see what Santa Cruz locals had to say.??????♂????? Did you know that EPE & EPS (expanded polyethylene and polystyrene) can take over 500 years to break down in landfills? Most of the EPS ever produced since its invention, is still out there, sitting in landfills or polluting the environment. As it slowly degrades, EPS can release harmful chemicals, contaminating soil and water, and wildlife often mistakes it for food. Cruz Foam was born out of a passion for protecting our oceans. Founded by two surfers from Santa Cruz, we developed a sustainable solution after seeing the effects of EPS firsthand in the oceans. After 7+ years and hundreds of foam formulations later, we created a compostable, durable alternative made from upcycled food waste. Encourage your favorite brands to ditch harmful foams for a solution that protects our planet. Because when there’s a better option, why not make the switch? ???? #CruzFoam #FollowNature
