Sustainable Packaging Philosophy

Design

+ Is the product appealing to consumers?

+ Does the packaging reflect the product attributes and brand promise on shelf?

+ Is the information on pack easy-to-read and functional in form?

Materials

+ Have the materials been sourced from sustainable and renewable sources?

+ Have the raw materials been sourced using an ethically appropriate supply chain (i.e. no exploitation of people or natural resources)?

+ Can the material be reused, upcycled and recycled?

Minimalism

+ Does the packaging solution (primary and secondary) minimise the use of materials? Reducing weight and physical dimensions results in less CO2 emissions during production and transportation.

Efficiency

+ Is the product protected during shipment?

+ Does the packaging support the customer's need at home?

+ Does it successfully dispense the product, without spilling or damaging the product?

+ Does the packing keep the product fresh?

Innovation

+ Does the packaging solution champion new ways of production?

+ Does the packaging use materials that are new and environmentally friendly?

+ Does it position the product positively in the eye of the consumer?

Understanding Packaging's Performance

With our tool, you can easily measure and simulate the environmental footprint of packaging.

This platform was developed by the experts and based on the latest data from leading sources and a science-driven methodology.

It’s a powerful tool that assesses a pack’s performance across each life cycle stage (raw materials to end-of-life) with robust metrics and indicators (reusability, recycled content, pack to product weight ratio and more) helping companies measure their current footprint and easily compare different packaging alternatives, driving further carbon reduction aligned too the companies' goals.

A Packaging Assessment Tool – Digitising Sustainable Innovation

Our tool helps companies embed sustainability design into the heart of the packaging development process and deploy data-driven packaging choices at scale.

This intuitive tool makes robust environmental data accessible, supporting you in making smarter design decisions and empowering you to develop sustainable packaging solutions.

With this SaaS tool (Software as aService), businesses can easily measure the environmental footprint of different packaging and turn robust environmental metrics into actionable insights to drive sustainable packaging innovation.
