Put simply, sustainable packaging involves the production and use of packaging that makes the most of its materials, offering maximum value for minimal energy expenditure and landfill impact.
The most obvious example is the use of recycled or recyclable materials that reduce the demand for precious petroleum and the production of harmful greenhouse gases. Packaging that is used by the consumer more than once before it gets thrown away also counts toward overall sustainability.
Sustainable cosmetic packaging consists of beauty product packaging material that later on gets processed according to the 3Rs—reduce, reuse and recycle. Other important characteristics are biodegradability and being organic.
The most obvious benefits of using eco-friendly cosmetic packaging mostly pertain to the business’ green marketing and production aspects. Another benefits from using sustainable, eco-friendly packaging solutions include Promising Marketing Prospects, A Chance to Have A Good Market Share, Customer Loyalty, Contribution to Efforts to Protect the Environment and Immunity to Supply Chain Disruptions
