Hi, this is Sam Gummins from Transformation Packaging. We're here at Pack Expo. We're introducing the world to Expandose. It's a sustainable alternative to foam, to bubble, to peanuts, a number of other single use plastics.

Very excited to show the world this product. It's 100 percent sustainable. It's 100 percent recyclable. It's 100 percent biodegradable. It's 100 percent compostable. It's a fantastic alternative. It is used both as a protective packaging. It's also used for void fill. It can be automated. There are lots of benefits versus the alternatives starting with sustainability, but many customers also found that it's not only the least expensive alternative, but also does a better job of protecting.

So here at Pack Expo, we've been inundated with folks learning more about the product and very excited to be talking to Packaging World.
