In this episode Wayne Robinson and Lindy Hughson review a very busy month in print, as the financial results for the big players came in.

Packaging was the key theme of August, we analyse the big moves by IVE, Amcor, ePac and Opal, and discuss what it means for the rest of the print industry, as the sector becomes increasingly attractive.

As the government mandates a 43 per cent reduction in emission levels we look what steps different print businesses are taking to get there, including one planting a forest to offset its emissions, and another covering its roof in solar panels for its energy.
