What are the Sustainable Packaging Guidelines (SPG’s) and how do they relate to packaging?
PaperPak understands the importance, functional and sustainability requirements of packaging in businesses.
Here are some examples of how PaperPak provides you with sustainable choices with regard to packaging design.
PaperPak’s dedicated packaging designers utilise the APCO Sustainable Packaging Guidelines (SPGs) and eliminate unnecessary material in all product designs creating packaging for a better tomorrow.
The SPGs are a comprehensive, publicly available resource used to assist in the sustainable design and manufacture of packaging in Australia and are aligned with sustainable packaging guidelines published by other countries.
The purpose of the SPGs are to assist organisations to integrate ten Sustainable Packaging Principles into their operations. These Principles have been designed to optimise outcomes for packaging functionality and sustainability.
