1. 1. Food Packaging for Sustainable Development

   Författare :Helén Williams; Fredrik Wikström; Ole Jørgen Hanssen; Karlstads universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Packaging; sustainable development; service perspective; food losses; food waste; consumer interaction; life cycle assessment - LCA; consumer value; Miljö- och energisystem; Environmental and Energy Systems;

   Sammanfattning : Packaging has been on the environmental agenda for decades. It has been discussed and debated within the society mainly as an environmental problem. Production, distribution and consumption of food and drinks contribute significant to the environmental impact. However, consumers in the EU waste about 20% of the food they buy. LÄS MER

3. 2. Sustainable Packaging of Organic Food: Myth or Reality?

   Författare :Helena Lindh; Förpackningslogistik; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Packaging; Features; Functions; Food; Organic; Life cycle; Eco; Sustainable Packaging; Development; Design;

   Sammanfattning : Previous research has argued that packaging has a great potential to contribute to sustainable development, but how to put this potential into practice is not yet fully explored. The theoretical foundation of the research presented is at the intersection of packaging logistics and sustainable development. LÄS MER

4. 3. Green packaging development in theory and practice

   Författare :Katrin Molina-Besch; Förpackningslogistik; []
   Nyckelord :Packaging Development; Sustainable packaging; packaging development process; green supply chain management;

   Sammanfattning : In the light of the environmental challenges society is facing it is important thatboth products and their packaging systems are optimised from an environmental perspective. Previous research highlights that environmental optimisation of packaging requires an integrated assessment of product and packaging together. LÄS MER

5. 4. Making packaging more sustainable: Effects of resource embeddedness

   Författare :Sandra Brüel Grönberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; packaging; e-commerce; embeddedness; sustainability; business network; resource; distribution; network setting;

   Sammanfattning : Firms involved in e-commerce distribution are faced with challenges due to the increasing volume of single shipments to consumers, including concerns regarding sustainability. For instance, the role of packaging has gained increased attention because of over-packed parcels and excessive air within those parcels, which frustrate retailers, logistics service providers, and consumers.
