Minimalist and lightweight designs
Packaging designs are becoming more minimalist and lightweight, reducing material usage and transportation emissions.
Plant-based and renewable materials
The use of plant-based and renewable materials, such as bamboo and sugarcane, is on the rise as companies seek sustainable alternatives to traditional packaging materials.
Smart packaging technology
Advancements in smart packaging technology, such as edible packaging and QR codes for recycling information, are also emerging as sustainable packaging solutions in 2024.
