Cheer Pack North America, a leading manufacturer of spouted pouch and cap packaging, will showcase its U.S.-made, EPR-aligned packaging solutions at Natural Products Expo West 2026 in Anaheim, California. As Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) programs are implemented in states like Oregon, Colorado, and California, Cheer Pack N.A. will share flexible packaging options designed to support EPR compliance, source reduction, and recyclability, while helping brands manage EPR fee exposure.

Why it matters

With the rise of EPR programs, brand owners are facing increased scrutiny around material choices, reporting obligations, and total system costs. Cheer Pack N.A.'s packaging solutions aim to help brands navigate these new regulatory requirements without compromising performance, shelf appeal, or consumer convenience.

The details

Their PE Recycle-Ready spouted pouches and lighter weight PE caps can reduce EPR fees by up to 50% compared to glass, rigid plastic, and multi-material flexible alternatives. Featured solutions include CHEERCircle™ PE Recycle-Ready pouches, SqueezeNSip™ flow-control spouts, MultiFlex™ inverted and corner-spouted pouches, and Cubes™ side-gusset pouches.
