About the author

Birgit Brüggehofe
Innovation provides exciting impetus – and curiosity is the fuel. What is happening in the areas of packaging, the environment and sustainability? Birgit Brüggehofe wants to know! Just in time for the millennium, the trained design assistant swapped pencils for meaningful keys. As a GTA, she knows the who's who of printed products, from labels to leporellos. But amazing photo wallpapers, sophisticated textile finishing and impressive eye-catching advertising banners also strike a creative chord with her – provided they are printed in an environmentally friendly way! Diversity is the favourite word of this German-loving university graduate – and colourful is her favourite colour.
Plastic and concrete recycling, climate-neutral printing and packaging products, building renovation? It sounds dry as dust, but Birgit Brüggehofe gets goosebumps when it comes to technology topics. No wonder that the author, with her background in craftsmanship, knows that straps are not just for sandals. Unfortunately, her summer dream of a natural pool in Torquay, UK, will have to wait: so far, the nature enthusiast has only described how to plan and maintain swimming ponds in theory. Whatever her hobby horse may be, her detective instincts always prove to be an advantage when it comes to research.
Occasionally, she even hears the grass (paper) grow. This leads her to ask questions such as: What does urban soil quality have to do with healthy tree growth? The answer: more than you think. Because sustainable packaging made from corrugated cardboard and other materials saves trees and the climate. It's time to stem the daily flood of paper, says Birgit Brüggehofe – and to pre-sort it instead of paying extra for it. She writes that strategic waste management pays off for every industry – and is good for a company's image! After all, good packaging not only sharpens a company's corporate identity profile, but also protects goods during transport and whets the appetite for the contents. Just like Brüggehofe's catalogues for finely baked premium convenience products.
Blimey! Their day only has 24 hours too. Far too little to track down all the potential innovations from memory effect films to plastic flakes to the 3D printing revolution and put them into the right words.
What does the future hold? One thing is certain: nothing will stay the same. It's going to get even better!
