It has become a priority to find more sustainable packaging and circular economy solutions for businesses. Sustainable packaging can help reduce the negative environmental impacts of packaging materials. Packaging materials such as plastic, paper, and glass are essential for protecting and transporting products, but they can also have significant environmental consequences if not managed properly.
