1. Minimize use of packaging materials
If possible, the use of packaging materials in a space which minimize not affect the integrity of the product? This
is a goal that designers consider why suppliers are constantly
developing new containers, lids, labels and other products, the amount
of packaging, and reduce the narrow range of the target price.
2.Looking for reusable packaging
To
a certain degree of reuse of packaging, the only way that is harmless
to the environment, the development of packaging products for designers
to make the package more practical to use them.
3.Select alternative new packaging for the product distribution
The
new technologies and materials less material for the production of
injected cases, trays or shelves packaging used to minimize the waste of
the packaging.
4. Packaging design with respect to the lifetime
There
are many life-cycle assessment tools can help designers to pack in
order to understand the impact of packaging on environment.It important
to note that sustainability indicators and standards are constantly
evolving and growing, so that while a solution is chosen ,
it is necessary on the use of various instruments on the packaging the
same size you can get different results insist, is the key to ensure
consistency and to find the right direction.
5. Recyclable packaging design
The packaging in the manufacturing process is the most effective method to save to use of energy. Although
many materials such as paper and PET have to do big, coatings, labels
and other packaging elements has achieved to improve the function is
difficult to find effective methods of disposal so that the designer
must try the new technology, recycled packaging maximize design.
6. Promoting the consumption of packaging strategies
Although
most of the packaging looks better than individual packets from the
perspective of sustainable development, but compared to the current
consumption, small packaging has great benefits for the environment. Packaging for consumer protection is often easier to achieve a breakthrough in its stability.
7.Use raw materials from renewable sources
Packaging
based on renewable raw materials - bio plastic made from corn or sugar
cane, is the case with the fastest-growing mushrooms made in an area. Compared
to conventional materials, these new technologies a few problems in the
real production have met, but this is a new way for the sustainable
packaging industry.
Indeed there
is not really sustainable packaging in the world, on the contrary, the
stability of the process is the goal of improving packaging
sustainability continues over time, so be the overall environmental
impact. In
terms of sustainability is packaging materials such as glass, plastic,
paper and aluminum, hard to distinguish between good and evil among
them. In accordance with the product packaging and a variety of purposes, each material has its advantages and disadvantages. In
connection with the concept of sustainable packaging design is well
established, there are some ideas to improve the packaging.
