Sustainability

What does sustainability mean to you? As members of the Sustainable Packaging Coalition (SPC), we believe sustainability takes root in progress, education, and accountability. We understand that big change seldom happens quickly, but small and important wins happen every moment. While embarking on your journey for sustainable packaging, please read the below bullet points (shared from our friends at SPC) to help guide your conversation forward.

Sustainable Packaging…

• Is beneficial and safe for individuals and communities throughout its life cycle

• Meets market criteria for both performance and cost

• Is sourced, manufactured, transported, and recycled using renewable energy

• Optimizes the use of renewable or recycled source materials

• Is manufactured using clean production technologies and best practices

• Is made from materials that are healthy throughout the life cycle

• Is physically designed to optimize materials and energy

• Is effectively recovered and utilized in biological and/or industrial closed loop cycles

So, what’s your Sustainable Packaging story? What motivates you and your brand to use packaging that is recyclable, renewable, or reusable? We look forward to discussing your brand’s goals towards building a more sustainable future.

Sincerely,

Pacific Packaging Components
