We interact with packaging every day—opening a bag of chips, twisting the cap off a soda bottle or grabbing something from the freezer aisle. But how often do we think about everything that package has to do? Probably not very often. In this episode of Sustainably Speaking, host Mia Quinn heads to an experiential grocery store in Chicago with Anita Budiman of Mars Snacking and John Avolio of Borouge International to unpack the surprisingly complex world of packaging design. Today's packages have a big job. They need to protect products, preserve freshness, meet stringent food-safety requirements, perform the way consumers expect—and be designed to be recycled and incorporate recycled content. And getting all those things right at once isn't as simple as swapping one material for another. What You'll Learn Mia, Anita and John unpack what goes into designing packaging that protects products, meets safety and performance requirements, and can work within recycling systems. You'll hear about: Why recyclability starts with design. Packaging has to work not only for the product, but also within the recycling infrastructure available to process it. Why recycled content is especially complex for food packaging. Materials must meet strict food-safety and performance standards, while brands also need access to a consistent supply of suitable recycled material. How packaging is evolving. From reducing pigments to simplifying multi-layer structures, companies are exploring ways to make more packaging easier to recycle. What consumers can do. The conversation covers practical recycling tips, including keeping caps on bottles and knowing when flexible packaging belongs at a store drop-off location instead of in the curbside bin. Along the way, you'll also find out why a soda bottle is more sophisticated than it looks—and why some pets can make recycled-content packaging especially tricky. The takeaway: everyday packaging involves a surprising amount of engineering, innovation and collaboration. Press play for a look at what's happening behind the package.

Tattoo artist and toy maker Chris Reed of Creeder Toys joins Toys on Tap to talk about what happens when decades of tattoos, horror movies, Japanese art, vintage toys, and monster obsession all collide.Chris started apprenticing as a teenager and has spent nearly 30 years tattooing—but eventually collecting turned into sculpting, mask making, resin casting, monster banks, and finally sofubi.We talk about:• Tattooing at 17 • Punk, skateboarding, and horror movies • Falling into vintage toy collecting • Japanese tattoo history and yokai • Making latex masks from scratch • Sculpting and casting his own toys • Why his first sofubi HAD to be made in Japan • Collaborating with Chaz • Selling out his first toy shows • Resin vs. vinyl collector obsession • Kong banks, Frankenstein, and what comes nextChris may not have a master plan.He just wants to keep making cool shit.On Instagram: @creedertoysThanks to Our SupportersRate & Review the Show!

In this week's episode, I'm making the silicone mold for the new Aurora minifigure and then testing to see if it worked by doing the first few resin casts.Here she is, in a paper cup, about to get siliconed. I added these sticks to parts I was concerned would not fill.  These sticks will serve as airvents, allowing the air to escape and the resin to replace the air. I glued the sprues that serve as the vents at the points on the figure that are protruding the most. To the left you can see a batch of Smooth On Mold Star 30, the epoxy silicone I'm using.There is no way to avoid all the bubbles, but when I pout the silicone over Aurora, I will let it pour from a high height so the air has some time to escape. Here is the mold after it has cured.Flipped over, the mold will have Aurora's feet in the air - those serve as the pour spouts of the liquid resin, which has a cure time of about 60-90 seconds.  You can see the foot on the right has just cured (solid white) and the one of the left is in the process of curing.Two different resins - on the left, Smooth Cast 57D as semi rigid (flexible) resin that cures translucent and on the right, Smooth Cast 300, a harder, more brittle resin that cures solid and shows details better.Pretty happy with how the fine details came out! All pictures are here: https://13thhr.wordpress.com/2026/09/14/the-thirteenth-hour-podcast-579-making-a-mold-and-resin-casting-the-new-aurora-minifigure-for-dare/More next week!∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞Once Upon a Dream, the second Thirteenth Hour soundtrack, is now out in digital form!   It is out on most major streaming services such as Bandcamp, Spotify, and YouTube Music.  (If you have no preference, I recommend Bandcamp since there is a bonus track there and you will eventually be able to find tapes, CDs, and special editions of the album there as well.)-Check out the pixelart music videos that are out so far from the album:-->Logan's Sunrise Workout: www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7SM1RgsLiM-->Forward: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9VgILr1TDc-->Nightsky Stargazing: www.youtube.com/watch?v=2S0p3jKRTBo-->Aurora's Rainy Day Mix: https://youtu.be/zwqPmypBysk∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞ Signup for the mailing list for a free special edition podcast, a demo copy of The Thirteenth Hour, and access to retro 80s soundtrack!Like what you see or hear?

Yenkin-Majestic Paint Corporation pleaded guilty in federal court to a negligent endangerment charge related to an explosion that killed a press room supervisor, hospitalized eight other workers and caused more than $90 million in property damages. The Department of Justice reported that the Ohio-based coatings and resin manufacturer fabricated and installed a new door, or manway, on one of the kettles at its Columbus facility in 2020. However, Yenkin did not pressure-test the manway before returning the kettle to service despite several instances of high-pressure spikes.The manway began leaking after installation. Still, Yenkin kept using the kettle and added a thicker gasket, which it mistakenly believed was made of Teflon but was actually silicone.In April 2021, Yenkin was making a resin in the kettle when an operator restarted an agitator without realizing it had stopped. The DOJ stated that the stoppage was likely due to electrical work. Turning the agitator back on caused the contents to vaporize and increased the pressure inside the kettle. The closed manway and gasket could not contain the pressure and began releasing a mixture of hot resin liquid and flammable solvent vapor into the plant.Flammable gas detectors in the facility noticed the vapors, but they were not configured to sound an audible alarm. The vapors eventually found an ignition source and exploded.Six months later, OSHA cited Yenkin for two willful and 33 serious safety violations and proposed about $710,000 in penalties. The DOJ release did not detail the sentence or other penalties the company could face following the guilty plea.Yenkin has not responded to IEN's request for comment.#IndustrialSafety, #ProcessSafety, #FactoryExplosion, #ManufacturingSafety, #WorkplaceSafety, #ChemicalSafety, #Manufacturing, #IndustrialManufacturing, #OSHA, #SafetyEngineering, #PaintManufacturing, #ChemicalManufacturing, #PlantSafety, #WorkplaceAccidents, #OhioManufacturing
