Summary
Five key strategies for packaging material suppliers to add value for thier customers.
Analysis
Here are five clear ways that packaging material manufacturers can add-value for their customers:
Material 'life cycle' back story- stress environmentally positive steps in the production of papers, inks, board stocks etc..
Phthalate free 'healthy plastics' - offer packaging materials and components which use polymers which are healthy for people and the environment. Stress differences between environmental impact of manufacturing these materials with competitor’s products.
Integrated material systems - offer solutions consist of materials that can be recycled in the same stream. Examples include aluminum bottles with aluminum screw caps.
Mass Reduction Strategies- offer solutions which reduce the quantity of material needed for packaging performance. Examples include barrier films, gram weight reduction in bottles and cans through structural design.
Non Petroleum Based Material Solutions - highlight systems and materials which do not rely on petroleum feedstock’s. Examples include paper, aluminum, and glass structures.
