Green packaging design is a packaging design process with environment and resources as the core concepts. Specifically, it refers to the selection of appropriate green packaging materials and the use of green technology to design the structure and beautify the decoration of packaged goods.

Material elements

The material elements include basic materials (paper materials, plastic materials, glass materials, metal materials, ceramic materials, bamboo and wood materials, leather materials and other composite materials) and auxiliary materials (adhesives, paints and inks). They are the material basis for the realization of the three major functions of packaging (protection, convenience and sales), and are directly related to the overall functions and economic costs of packaging Production and processing methods and packaging waste recycling and other issues.

The material selection in green packaging design should follow the following principles:

Lightweight, thin, easy to separate, high-performance packaging materials;

Recyclable and renewable packaging materials;

Edible packaging materials;

Degradable packaging materials;

Packaging materials of natural ecological energy developed by using natural resources;

Try to use paper packaging.

Try to use the same material for packaging

As far as possible, packages can be reused, not only packaging materials can be recycled (For example, standardized pallets can be reused for tens or even thousands of times)
