Recycling is always the first thing that comes to
mind when we discuss the sustainable use of
plastic. In reality, countries have already begun
to take steps to recycle all plastic generated
worldwide.

• However, given that just 9 of the entire amount
  of plastic generated in Europe is now recycled,
  the statistic appears to be quite a ways off.
• This statistic contributes relatively little to
  addressing environmental issues when compared to
  the volume of plastic generated globally. 360
  million tonnes of plastic were generated globally
  in 2018, of which 40 was used for packaging,
  study shows.

Reusable packaging, sometimes referred to as
returnable packaging, is packaging intended to be
used repeatedly.

• Such packaging combines strength, use, and
  cleaning simplicity. These include industrial and
  transport packaging as well as consumer products
  like beverage containers and zip-lock bags. By
  lowering the need for production, it contributes
  to further reducing the carbon footprint. Here
  are a few of the key advantages of using reusable
  containers.

Environment Benefits

• A company's carbon footprint may be significantly
  reduced by using a returnable supply chain. For
  instance, single-use corrugated packing may
  result in collected waste material in enormous
  volumes in landfills if your organisation
  requires continuous product transportation
  between manufacturing or factory sites.
  Additionally, it will result in higher production
  energy costs. Reusable packaging reduces the need
  for raw materials, energy, and trash production
  in such circumstances. Consumer items are a
  significant area where single-use plastic is
  used. Reusable packaging, such zip-lock bags, may
  significantly cut down on home plastic waste.

Cost Reduction

• Reusable packaging is economical and kind to the
  environment. Companies may save money on the cost
  of raw materials, energy, and labour by
  decreasing the need to repeatedly produce
  single-use packaging. Reusable packaging is more
  robust and long-lasting than single-use packaging
  since it is made for repeated usage. As a result,
  it shields the goods from harm and lowers losses.

Applications of Reusable Packaging

• It is widely used for delivering ingredients/raw
  materials to the processing unit, and
  transporting subcomponents to the facility for
  assembling.
• Another application is the work in process sites
  where products/materials are constantly
  transported to different sites or manufacturing
  units, or even to temporary storage units before
  processing.
• As a world-renowned organization, it has actively
  promoted sustainability by enabling a circular
  economy for flexible packaging. Click here to
