Nilörngruppen ABPackaging is used to protect outdoor products during transport from manufacturer to consumer and, although its environmental impact is small compared to that of the product inside, it is often the first contact the consumer has with the product and can therefore play a significant part in reinforcing the product’s sustainable credentials. In this session, packaging experts and an industry representative will discuss the concept of sustainable packaging, the impact of material choice versus waste handling systems, and how best the industry can address their packaging.
