GPE 2026 Opens This Week: SUNDLY’s Sustainable Pet Pads Meet Evolving Market Demands
The Global Pet Expo (GPE) 2026 kicks off March 25–27 in Orlando, Florida—North America’s premier pet industry trade event. This year, sustainability takes center stage, with the Pet Sustainability Coalition (PSC) returning with its Sustainability Pavilion, featuring educational sessions on packaging innovations, responsible sourcing, and consumer expectations of eco-friendly brands.
Sustainability: From Optional to Essential
Industry data shows that over 50% of pet owners are willing to pay a premium for environmentally responsible products, with U.S. and European buyers demonstrating over 40% acceptance of eco-premium pricing. The message is clear: sustainability is no longer a niche—it’s table stakes.
