Living in a recycling world
By Canadian Packaging staff
Sustainability PAC PAC Packaging Consortium Packaging Consortium recycling sustainability The Life of a Package in a Sustainable Recycling WorldPAC, Packaging Consortium serves up another tasty seminar: The Life of a Package in a Sustainable Recycling World.
The sustainability of a package today is no longer an afterthought.
Packagers and stewards are giving more attention to the recyclability of a package at the end of its use.
This is complemented by the evolution of extended producer responsibility schemes and the notion that sustainable development requires the proper management of a product for the full life cycle.
From an individual perspective, The Life of a Package in a Sustainable Recycling World produced by PAC, Packaging Consortium, takes a look at the life cycle of a package: from basic function, to marketing, and then through to end of life and finally rebirth.
