WAYNE, PA — In a strategic move to further its sustainability mission, Verdafresh, a pioneer in the field of recyclable flexible packaging, has announced the appointment of Jeanne Skaggs to its Board of Directors. Skaggs brings over three decades of experience in flexible packaging, specializing in filmmaking, converting, research and development, and supply chain management.
Skaggs, a Michigan State University engineering graduate, is expected to bolster Verdafresh’s technical team as the company continues to notch up commercial wins. Her extensive experience will be pivotal in supporting brands committed to sustainability.
“Jeanne’s arrival couldn’t have been better timed,” said Dave Klopp, CEO of Verdafresh. “Her deep industry knowledge and expertise will play a critical role in our ongoing efforts to help brands achieve their sustainable packaging goals.”
Verdafresh is revolutionizing the packaging sector with its proprietary barrier coating technology, which enables the creation of mono-material recyclable flexible packaging. The company’s films offer exceptional clarity and can deliver oxygen transmission rates (OTR) of less than 0.1 cc/100in2/day. This technological breakthrough allows brands to maintain product quality without compromising on recyclability — a key element in achieving sustainability objectives.
Skaggs echoed Klopp’s enthusiasm about her appointment, saying, “Verdafresh’s mission to enable truly recycled flexible packaging aligns perfectly with my own professional goals. After spending decades in this industry, I understand the complexities and challenges of adopting new solutions.
