PACKAGING

Packaging is an important concern for consumers, particularly those who are interested in converting to environmentally-friendly buying behaviors.

Eco-friendly packaging is a recent phenomenon, it is already a large and rapidly growing trend.

Innovative techniques and various measures of textile cleaner production”(CP) which ensures textile processing is “eco-friendly”, “cost effective” and “sustainable business”.

Goal of sustainable packaging

In general, the broad goals of sustainable packaging are:Functional – product protection,

safety, regulatory compliance, etc.

Cost effective – if it is too expensive, it is unlikely to be used

Support long-term human and ecological health

Factors in the design of Packaging

• Protection of product• Protection to the user• Ease of transportation & storage• Provision of product information • Environmental suitability• Convenience• Promotional value.• Security

The eco friendly packaging materials are:

Bio plasticsRecycled papersForest woodPalm leaf

Recycled packaging materials: Corrugated cartons Glass Steel Paper board Bubble wrap Corn starch Some recyclable plastics

Natural packaging materials:Coconut huskBamboo

Some of the eco friendly packaging materials are:

Bio-plastics

Commonly used in plastic.Also as envelopes used for bulk

mailing. Helps to reduce landfill waste.Good alternative to traditional plastics.

Some Of The Eco Friendly Packaging Materials

Recycled PaperRecycled paper products contribute to the

diversion of material from landfill. Reusable, recyclable and biodegradable.

Types of Recycled Paper

Palm Leaf

Natural, compostable and biodegradable. They are very stylish, tough and heat resistant. Products have no pulp, no starch, just a washed

and pressed leaf.

Some of the eco friendly packaging materials

Wooden products are made from renewable plant resource. It can be formed into a variety of packaging and products.

Forest Wood

Corn starch

Some of the eco friendly packaging materials

Items made from corn starch are biodegradable. Corn starch packaging biodegrades and has a

limited negative impact on the environment.

Green wrap Eco friendly biodegradable paper protective

packaging material made from recycled material. It looks great and cost effective

Bamboo-NaturalBamboo packaging helps reduce

environmental impacts and promote a healthier planet.

Some of the eco friendly packaging materials

Paper

Light weightEasy to printCan be recycled multiple times by using

relatively little energy. Chemicals used to bleach paper may not be

environmentally friendly Unbleached, post consumer waste paper is

the best.

Benefit Of Eco-friendly Packaging

While helping the environment is one benefit of eco-friendly packaging, packing products using fewer and more sustainable materials reaps additional rewards:

Saving money. Reducing excess packaging results in lighter and smaller shipments that cost less to transport.

Maintaining business. Switching to green materials can help meet or anticipate customer demands for eco-friendly suppliers.

Attracting consumers. Many shoppers will choose an environmentally friendly product over a conventional package.

Related Studies McHugh in 2004 gave the example that her packaging

could be used to flavor the product inside such as a “steak wrapped in carrot film”, “hams enveloped in apple wraps”

A global leader in 2005 he introduced in his innovation, The calculator has allowed for Kraft to reduce Oscar Mayer Deli Creations paperboard packaging by 30%. This design will reduce an estimated 1.2 million pounds of paperboard waste annually.

The Ajinomoto Group introduced its unique “Aji-na-Eco”1 mark in autumn 2010 to show the eco-friendliness of its product packages.

Anthony King announced in 2011, the development of the world’s first plant-based PET plastic bottle, which will in the future use non-food sources such as orange peel. Coca-Cola and Heinz have also recently launched bio-plastic bottles in Europe.

Along with PLA labels, in fiscal 2012, Ajinomoto Co., also plans to use eco-friendly plastic for the cap of the AJIPANDAR jar (75 g) of the umami seasoning AJI-NO-MOTOR. The plastic for that purpose contained biomass polyethylene made from sugarcane. This step will enable packaging that is completely environmental friendly.

ITC, since long, has been associated with quality. In 2002, they introduced their packaged; the package was of great importance to ensure long shelf life for the products which were made without any preservatives.

Iyer has introduced in 2006 that Radio frequency identification (RFID) is being incorporated into thin-film electronics to monitor the conditions inside of a package in real time. the study of kinetics, as well as providing an excellent inventory and quality control database to reduce waste of packaging.

This article looks at some of the basic types of reusable packaging used in industry. Reusable packaging plays a key role within the recycling industry itself, while in terms of helping companies achieve waste reduction targets such as Zero Landfill initiatives within the context of more broad Zero Waste  programs, reusable transport packaging is playing an increasingly important role. Some of the common types of reusable packaging include:

Reusable pallets Reusable handheld containers Reusable dunnage.

Related Studies

Polyolefin (HDPE/PP) woven sacks are versatile packing materials used extensively in the packing of cement, fertilizers, thermo plastic raw materials, food grains, sugar etc.

PP/HDPE printed sandwich bags are made by sandwiching PP and HDPE. They have a very good appearance and are used for packaging costlier products like pesticides, seeds, wheat flour, high-end chemicals, etc.

Conclusion

Innovations in eco-friendly packing have come in many forms ranging from simply removing source material to the development of complex nano-composites. As consumers and industry become more aware of the current environmental conditions, they embrace the concept of moral responsibility superseding convenience and conventional profitability.
