Key Types of Sustainable Packaging
1. Recyclable Packaging
Recyclable packaging is made from materials that can be reprocessed into new products. Common options include paper, cardboard, certain plastics, and aluminum. This reduces waste and supports the circular economy while keeping your products safe and presentable.
2. Compostable Packaging
Compostable packaging breaks down naturally in composting environments, leaving no toxic residue. It is ideal for food, beverages, and biodegradable items, helping businesses demonstrate genuine environmental responsibility.
3. Biodegradable Packaging
Biodegradable materials decompose faster than traditional plastics and contribute to a greener supply chain. Using biodegradable packaging shows customers your commitment to sustainable practices.
At Carewell Group, we offer a range of eco-friendly packaging solutions that include recyclable and compostable materials, designed for industries such as food service, retail, and industrial shipping.
