Introducing Unpacked – FORDS’ New Channel for Packaging Insight, Innovation and Exploration

3 min read

We’re excited to announce the launch of Unpacked, our new YouTube channel dedicated to shining a spotlight on the biggest topics in our industry and exploring the future of packaging.

Packaging has never faced more pressure, or more possibility. That’s why Unpacked exists: to go deeper. To examine the issues, trends and technologies shaping the next century of packaging, from sustainability and design to accessibility, materials, user experience and beyond.

It’s a space for asking the questions not enough people are asking, challenging conventions and looking to new, better ways of doing things.

In this episode, Jordan Urquhart explores one of the most overlooked contributors to plastic waste: small-format, single-use bottles.

They’re convenient, they’re everywhere, and most of us have used one recently, but they add up to billions of units, and current recycling systems simply aren’t keeping pace. The video unpacks why these tiny bottles have such an outsized impact, and what needs to change for real progress.
