PMMI Report Identifies Top Priorities for Industry Suppliers

6/13/2025

Productivity is a top priority for consumer-packaged goods professionals and industry suppliers, according to a new report published by PMMI, the Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies.

The 2025 Performance Optimization: Insights for Packaging Line Readiness report summarizes key issues, industry insights, and recommendations from PMMI’s 2025 Top to Top Summit. While more than three-quarters (78%) of participants voted for productivity as their top priority, others cited cost and automation (both 47%), growth (39%), and workforce (24%) as crucial areas.

The study also reveals specific details about strategies for effective training, such as digital tools, follow-up assessments, automated systems, tailored learning formats, and digital solutions that include AI-driven troubleshooting, interactive manuals, and augmented reality.

“Technology is playing a growing role in all aspects of industry,” said Jorge Izquierdo, vice president, market development, PMMI. He explains, “Used strategically and safely, it can provide the means to create more efficient production. Companies that refine and streamline processes, develop skilled workers, and unlock the power of their IT-OT systems create an environment of operational readiness.”
