SmartSolve to Showcase Sustainable Innovation at the Sweets & Snacks Expo

SmartSolve to Showcase Sustainable Innovation at the Sweets & Snacks Expo

SmartSolve is thrilled to announce our participation in the 2025 Sweets & Snacks Expo, taking place May 13–15 in Indianapolis—but our presence begins even earlier. We’ll be exhibiting on Monday and Tuesday at the Supplier Showcase, a dedicated portion of the event designed to spotlight companies offering solutions for brands in the confectionery and snack industry.

Join Us at the Supplier Showcase – Booth #7543

You can find us on Level 2 of the Indiana Convention Center. SmartSolve is booth #7543 in the Sagamore Ballroom. This is your chance to explore our latest advancements in environmentally conscious packaging solutions before the main show floor opens. As a company committed to developing water-soluble, biodegradable, and compostable materials, SmartSolve partners with brands that want to meet sustainability goals while maintaining product performance and consumer appeal.

We are especially excited to debut a major innovation: PureNil™ 0, our first material capable for direct food contact applications!

Key Features of PureNil™ 0 include:

  • 100% bio-based composition — completly plastic-free material
  • Designed to help brands eliminate plastics from their packaging portfolios
  • Ideal for snack packaging and other applications where high barrier properties are not required

Check out our PureNil™ 0 webpage to learn more about this NEW product development.

Sustainability in the Food Industry

In today’s regulatory landscape, brands face increasing pressure to comply with evolving Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) legislation—laws that make producers responsible for the full lifecycle of their packaging, from creation through disposal. SmartSolve’s materials offer a unique path forward. Unlike conventional packaging that must be collected, sorted, and processed, our materials are engineered to dissolve completely in water and biodegrade, leaving behind no physical waste. This zero-waste design aligns with the spirit of EPR by reducing environmental impact at the source.

While many EPR frameworks emphasize recycling and reuse, there’s growing recognition that innovative materials are essential in tackling plastic pollution. By choosing SmartSolve’s solutions, brands can take proactive steps to minimize their environmental footprint and better navigate compliance—especially as global regulations continue to tighten.

Let’s Meet at the Expo

PureNil 0™ is currently in the Qualifcation R&D Stage of development and has the potential to reshape the future of food-safe packaging. Our team excited to share and discuss this new product with forward-thinking brands. After the Supplier Showcase, we’ll be walking the floor during the Sweets & Snacks Expo from May 13–15 and would love the opportunity to meet up and connect with brands, retailers, and innovators. 👉 Click here to schedule a meeting with SmartSolve at the Expo!

We look forward to seeing you in Indianapolis!
