Welcome to Phantm’s next generation platform.

It brings a refreshed user experience, an updated interface and enhanced workflows shaped around the real challenges our customers face - from chasing suppliers to turning fragmented packaging information into one structured, reusable data asset.

Existing customers will begin transitioning to the new platform during August. For everyone else, we’d love to show you what’s changed.

Never chase a supplier again.

One of the most significant enhancements is Phantm’s new supplier outreach workflow.

The workflow automates supplier engagement, data collection, follow-up and validation. It helps businesses engage directly with suppliers, track and consolidate changes, and collect specifications and supporting documents into one live, structured packaging data asset.

First-mile data collection remains one of the most significant challenges for organisations seeking to understand their product and packaging portfolios. Phantm does the chasing, gathering and reconciling, while your team retains the oversight to check, decide and lead.

Let Phantm chase supplier data for you

Ready for whatever regulations do next

As packaging regulation expands across Australia and international markets, businesses increasingly require information that goes beyond basic material quantities and total mass.

Phantm supports Australian and international customers operating across multiple markets, helping them respond to evolving packaging requirements, including Australia’s regulatory environment, UK's EPR Scheme, and the European Union’s Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR).

The platform helps capture the granular data needed to understand packaging composition, validate claims, identify improvement opportunities and prepare for regulatory mechanisms such as eco-modulated fees and incentives.

Capture once, repurpose forever

Packaging data should not be collected repeatedly for individual reports, assessments or regulatory submissions.

It should become a connected, reusable business asset that can support compliance, procurement, product development, supplier engagement, packaging reduction and commercial decision-making.

As the market continues to evolve, Phantm will continue listening to customers, responding to emerging requirements and using technology to rapidly develop the workflows and tools businesses need.

Join leading Australian brands

Since welcoming MECCA and Opal as early adopters of our packaging intelligence platform, we have gone on to onboard Adairs, Toyota, ITW and Thomas Foods International, to name a few.

These partnerships have provided valuable insight into how businesses currently collect, manage and use packaging data, as well as where technology can remove complexity, duplication and manual effort.

A note from Elliot

“In 2026, our product has evolved rapidly because we have listened closely to our customers and the broader market. We have focused on improving the user experience and developing practical features that address genuine customer pain points, and we are incredibly grateful to those of you who have worked alongside us and helped shape this latest release.” - Elliot CostelloCEO, Phantm

Your time shouldn’t be spent chasing suppliers and piecing together packaging data like a thousand-piece puzzle, only to start all over again whenever regulations change.
