What are the Benefits of Eco-Friendly Packaging

The use of environmentally friendly packaging to attract environmentally conscious consumers not only protects the environment, but also improves the brand's reputation and enhances the brand's market competitiveness.

Today, most companies in the market prefer green packaging, mostly paper-based, because it is recyclable and sustainable materials that are good for the environment and ecology.  

The Sustainable Packaging Coalition has set up a number of rules when it comes to what can be called eco-friendly or sustainable packaging:

  • Meets market criteria for performance and cost.
  • Sourced, manufactured, transported and recycled using renewable energy.
  • Optimises the use of renewable or recycled source materials.
  • Is made from materials that remain non-toxic throughout the life cycle.
  • Is designed to optimise materials and energy.
  • Effectively recovered and utilised in biological and/or industrial closed-loop cycles.

6 Eco-Friendly Packaging of Eco-Friendly Packaging

1.Reduce carbon dioxide production

If it’s made from recycled products, the carbon footprint of your packaging will be greatly reduced. Similarly, if the packaging is made from natural materials such as bamboo or FSC-approved paper or cardboard, the growth of such products actually draws carbon out of the environment. If you’re looking to make your business carbon neutral, eco-friendly packaging is the way to go.

2. Biodegradable

If the packaging is made of natural materials, it means that it is degradable. Plastic, for example, takes thousands of years to decompose and produces some toxic substances in the process, while some environmentally friendly materials, such as bamboo, wood can decompose quickly and even be composted.

3.Recyclable

All environmentally friendly packaging is recyclable, and when it is thrown into the recycling bin, it is centrally processed and remade into new packaging or products for people to use. Old packaging can produce new economic benefits when it is recycled, so the recyclable feature is loved by many users.

With the progress of society, people's environmental awareness is becoming more and more strong, people are constantly looking for environmentally friendly packaging solutions, therefore, a green recyclable packaging will be more favored by consumers, which will greatly enhance your brand image and competitiveness in the industry, and environmentally unfriendly packaging has gradually been abandoned by the market.

Non-sustainable petrochemical resources such as crude oil, which is used to make most plastic, is incredibly harmful to the environment in terms of both extraction, refinement, distribution, use and disposal. Eco-friendly packaging has none of these issues over its lifespan. As it biodegrades, harmful chemicals such as the ones produced by plastic are not present.
