Companies Invest in Their Communities

Companies involved in the flexible packaging industry participate in their communities and provide services beyond their business models. Here is a look at some of those efforts at companies that are members of the Flexible Packaging Association (FPA). In June, FPA’s Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) Committee partnered with the nonprofit Martha’s Table to support local food security initiatives in Washington, D.C. The event was part of FPA’s 2026 FlexFly-In® Week, when FPA members and staff met with legislators to talk about issues important to the industry. Participants for the charity event gathered to prepare sandwiches for McKenna’s Wagon, a nightly meal distribution program operated by Martha’s Table that provides fresh meals to individuals experiencing food or housing insecurity. The volunteer work was part of FPA’s FlexImpact™ events, which are designed to show the value of flexible packaging while giving back to communities. All food provided to Martha’s Table was packaged in flexible packaging, highlighting its role in product protection, safety, and access, FPA points out.
