Bunzl’s Innov8 series, which this year kicked off in Melbourne and spanned Perth, Sydney and Brisbane before wrapping up in Adelaide, provides a uniquely valuable platform for Bunzl customers to explore the latest in innovation and sustainability.
These open-forum sessions bring customers together with leading suppliers, product experts, and industry specialists in a spirit of collaboration and knowledge exchange – highlighting products and solutions for the evolving needs of businesses.
For Bunzl’s Head of Sustainability, Felicity Kelly, the series is a great opportunity to highlight current and upcoming sustainability solutions.
“We’re seeing more and more products and packaging made from recyclable and recycled content, which is really supporting a circular economy,” Kelly says. “We’re also seeing equipment that is water- and energy-efficient, which is helping our customers meet their environmental targets.”
This type of open interaction allows attendees to ask detailed questions, explore how products can support and evolve their operations, and gain insight into future innovations. According to Lachlan Mann, Bunzl’s State Manager and General Manager Facilities Management, the workshops offer businesses a chance to discover products and processes that may lead to better outcomes, labour savings, and cost reductions across multiple sectors.
“We hear time and time again how face-to-face conversations with subject matter experts help customers understand how and which product innovations will benefit their business, and allow them an early look into what product solutions are on the horizon,” he says.
For Bunzl General Manager Healthcare John Christiansen, Innov8 is an opportunity to problem solve in a collaborative space. “Through Innov8, customers can touch and feel products that address the current challenges in the market. It’s great to see this high level of product evolution allowing businesses to develop more impactful ways of doing things,” Christiansen says.
Through events like Innov8, which are tailored and run exclusively for Bunzl customers, the company is helping businesses stay ahead of industry trends while embracing sustainable practices, and fostering healthy and beneficial supplier and customer conversations.
