Measuring the overall environmental impact of a packaging system can be difficult and time consuming. This web-based tool simplifies this task by allowing you to assess packaging and also compare different packaging options using a small number of pre-defined environmental parameters.
The tool builds an environmental profile of your packaging system using the following information:
- types and amounts of materials you are using (or intending to use) in your packaging
- information on where the materials come from and how they are transported to your facility
- data on volume of product and packaging
The tool then presents the results in both graphical and tabular formats based on six parameters: recycled content, recyclability, product/pack ratio, volumetric efficiency, embodied carbon and transport
