Sustainability through Design-Minimizing Total System Waste

 

It seems that the prevailing societal view of packaging is that of wasted resources. Corporate sustainability goals almost always include a focused effort to reduce packaging in general and packaging waste in particular. It should then be surprising to learn that substantially more damage can be done to the environment and to society’s limited natural resources when the sole goal is to reduce waste through reductions in packaging. Intelligent use of innovative packaging films and modest increases in packaging weight can actually result in substantial environmental impact reductions for the total system.
