A New Standard for Corporate Responsibility in Sustainable Packaging was set at the 2025 LUXE PACK Shanghai, held April 9–10 at the Shanghai Exhibition Centre, bringing together over 200 leading international packaging companies and more than 5,500 industry professionals under the theme “Innovation Driving the Future of Packaging”. Among the many highlights, UDN Packaging Corp. stood out by winning the prestigious “Best CSR Initiative” at the LUXE PACK in Green Awards, a recognition that underscores the company’s leadership in sustainability and corporate responsibility.
UDN’s Award-Winning Commitment to Sustainability
The LUXE PACK in Green Awards are the luxury packaging industry’s most respected platform for recognizing sustainable innovation and corporate social responsibility. In 2025, UDN Packaging Corp. was honoured for its comprehensive and measurable sustainability initiatives. The jury cited UDN’s achievements in:
- Smart manufacturing and solar energy adoption
- Water recycling systems
- Eco-designed tube packaging
- A 30% increase in sustainable material usage
- A 200% rise in bio-based content
- An 800-ton reduction in CO₂ emissions over the past year
This recognition is not UDN’s first. The company has previously been a finalist and winner at LUXE PACK for its pioneering work in green packaging, including its innovative tube designs and use of recycled materials.
A Track Record of Impact
In 2024 alone, UDN helped its clients reduce carbon emissions by over 800 tons. More than half of its products now use recyclable or renewable materials. Over the past three years, UDN has donated more than 2 million RMB in goods and funds to support environmental, educational, and community development projects, and has helped over 50 brands in optimizing packaging to reduce plastic use and enhance sustainability.
Embedding Sustainability Across the Business
During the event, UDN’s Vice President delivered a keynote outlining the company’s “5R” sustainability philosophy: Reuse, Reduce, Recycle, Replace, Renew. This approach covers everything from innovative material selection and design for recyclability to the integration of post-consumer recycled (PCR) materials and the development of ocean-bound plastic (OBP) tubes in partnership with major recycling enterprises. UDN also emphasizes building an inclusive, diverse, and healthy workplace culture, further demonstrating its holistic approach to corporate responsibility.
