AI Packaging Innovations

Nestlé is stepping up its packaging game with the help of cutting-edge technology to make its products more sustainable. The company is working to cut down on plastic use by finding better packaging materials like recyclable paper-based or single-material options while still priortizing the safe storage of food items.

To make this process faster and smarter, Nestlé has teamed up with IBM Research to develop a powerful generative AI tool. This tool sorts through huge amounts of informationabout packaging materials. Then, using a special type of AI that understands how chemicals work at a molecular level, it suggests new, more eco-friendly packaging ideas. These suggestions are designed to improve how packaging handles things like moisture, heat, and oxygen.

This new development aligns with the brand's mission to champion sustainable operations across all fronts.
