Onderzoek: Verpakkingsefficiëntie in relatie tot afvalpreventie

The ULS (Use Less Stuff) Report has published a study on packaging efficiency as it relates to waste prevention. Among the key findings is that source reduction (light weighting) continues to play a primary role in reducing packaging discards. Recovery for recycling also plays an increasingly important role in this regard.
The social trends towards more active, healthier lifestyles increase the need for products that provide convenience and weight control solutions. Resulting packages can lead to inefficiencies, as they require smaller sizes or the increased functionality needed to deliver ready-to-eat/serve and out-of-home product solutions (Persbericht ULS, 21 januari 2016).
