Growth in the search for sustainable products has been registered over the last years: this issue is particularly felt in the packaging sector since the packaging is a fundamental means of communication, but is also a source of waste. Limiting such waste is one of the most important targets both in the packaging and food sectors where several international initiatives against plastic and food waste are going ahead.
Producers and designers are multiplying their efforts to lighten packaging and make it more sustainable.
One way to measure the sustainability of a package is Life-Cycle Assessment (LCA), aiming at evaluating the impact of a product on the environment during its lifecycle, from cradle to grave.
New materials have been developed these last years to answer sustainability challenges: renewable, recyclable, recycled and compostable materials
