Sustainability and the role of smart packaging
Sustainability is a major concern of the packaging industry, and the pressure to reduce waste and minimize the impact on the environment is increasing. Smart packaging and IoT technologies can play a crucial role in promoting sustainable development by improving resource efficiency and reducing the overall carbon footprint. For example, smart packaging that supports the Internet of Things can help optimize the use of materials and ensure that products are packaged in the most efficient way. By tracking and monitoring product conditions throughout the supply chain, companies can identify areas of waste, such as overpacking or overuse of materials, and take steps to reduce waste. This not only saves costs, but also helps to achieve a more sustainable packaging process. In addition, smart packaging can support recycling programs by providing consumers with information on how to properly dispose of packaging materials. QR codes and RFID tags can be used to guide customers in recycling instructions, making it easier to classify and recycle packaging components. Therefore, intelligent packaging can help promote the adoption of the principle of circular economy, that is, materials are reused, recycled and reused to minimize waste.
