As U.S. brands and retailers accelerate the move from plastic to paper, APP Group with Charta Global Inc. are strengthening their role in helping the packaging industry balance speed, supply reliability, and sustainability. Through their participation at the PPC Spring Meeting 2026 in Louisville, both companies engaged with industry players and supply chain partners seeking paperboard solutions that can meet today’s commercial demands while supporting a more responsible packaging future.
As the exclusive sales channel for APP Group, Charta Global highlighted its supply readiness through its U.S. stocking program, enabling immediate delivery across the country. The program provides customers with access to APP Group’s paperboard portfolio, including premium C1S and C2S Folding Box Board, food grade FBB, recycled FBB, cigarette/tobacco FBB, and PE-free barrier coated FBB base paper for food, foodservice, and sustainable packaging applications. As brands and retailers continue shifting from plastic to paper, this capability supports businesses that require reliable supply, consistent quality, and flexibility across various packaging needs.
The PPC Spring Meeting also served as an important platform to better understand market demands and demonstrate how APP Group and Charta Global can support the continued growth of the U.S. packaging industry.
APP Group and Charta Global highlighted how customers now are not only looking for high-quality paperboard products, but also partners who can respond to the challenges of speed, availability, cost efficiency, and environmental responsibility. Through Charta Global’s network and APP Group’s innovation portfolio, the companies aim to help more brands transition to paper-based packaging solutions in a way that is practical, measurable, and sustainable.
This commitment is also aligned with APP Group’s broader sustainability direction through Regenesis, a platform that reflects the company’s ambition to build a more responsible future for forests, communities, and the value chain. Through the Forest Positive Policy, an initiative under Regenesis, APP Group places conservation, restoration, community empowerment, and responsible supply chain management as integral parts of its long-term business strategy.
