environmentally responsible practices is important.
Green packaging means products that were designed with environmental
sustainability in mind:
 Reduce – Reduce waste both for the final consumer
and during the manufacturing process.
 Recycle - Recycled materials are used in
production, but also so that the final product can be
easily recycled.
 Renew – Responsible manufacturers prioritize the use
of materials from renewable resources, such as corn and
potato starches and sugar cane bagasse.
