Net-zero emissions, starting from using lightweight packaging

In response to the enormous threat posed by climate change, it has become the worldwide goal to reach net-zero emissions by 2050.

How is the packaging industry responding to this target?

Reducing the weight and volume of product packaging can effectively reduce carbon usage. Fudy believes that the general principle of using lightweight packaging can be an excellent way to begin reducing carbon emissions. From production to transportation, and even remanufacturing, every step of the product life cycle consumes less energy and produces fewer carbon emissions, if the product packaging is lighter.

How to reduce packaging weight while protecting product?

1. Using precisely designing and calculating the requirements of the packaging structure
2. Using lightweight packaging materials, such as high bulk paper or molded pulp
3. Using recyclable and fully degradable materials
4. Using recyclable bio-based plastic (Bio-based PE) if necessary
