The third edition, revised and updated, brings together the entire packaging system, from concepts to final disposal, including market, design, trends, innovations, materials, processes, equipment and the delicate issue of sustainability. Divided into six units, this book brings new chapters, such as packaging for organic products, packaging for e-commerce, polyester films, structures for flexible packaging, types of flexible packaging, lids, seals and accessories, steel closures, carton packaging, stretch and shrink films, coatings and barrier varnishes, paints, varnishes and adhesives for flexible packaging, inks, varnishes and adhesives for paper and paperboard packaging, color pattern control, testing for packaging, variable weight products and labeling machines. The quality and availability of the authors, who are experienced professionals, fully active in the industry, constitute a differential of the book, which approaches, in a simple and accessible way, the universe of the packaging industry for packaging converters and consumer products industries. A book such as this was only possible thanks to the expertise of the authors and the fact that they understood the high purpose of the mission to educate and share knowledge for the development of better packaging for a better world. The new book will also have an e-book version: Portuguese and English. All the books in the collection are available on the same website platform, which is the collection's channel: www.betterpackagingbetterworld.com.

Download or read book The Future of Packaging written by Tom Szaky and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2019-02-05 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Only 35 percent of the 240 million metric tons of waste generated in the United States alone gets recycled, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. This extraordinary collection shows how manufacturers can move from a one-way take-make-waste economy that is burying the world in waste to a circular, make-use-recycle economy. Steered by Tom Szaky, recycling pioneer, eco-capitalist, and founder and CEO of TerraCycle, each chapter is coauthored by an expert in his or her field. From the distinct perspectives of government leaders, consumer packaged goods companies, waste management firms, and more, the book explores current issues of production and consumption, practical steps for improving packaging and reducing waste today, and big ideas and concepts that can be carried forward. Intended to help every business from a small start-up to a large established consumer product company, this book serves as a source of knowledge and inspiration. The message from these pioneers is not to scale back but to innovate upward. They offer nothing less than a guide to designing ourselves out of waste and into abundance.

Book excerpt: “If you’ve ever been perplexed by the byzantine rules of recycling, you’re not alone…you’ll want to read Can I Recycle This?... An extensive look at what you can and cannot chuck into your blue bin.” —The Washington Post The first illustrated guidebook that answers the age-old question: Can I Recycle This? Since the dawn of the recycling system, men and women the world over have stood by their bins, holding an everyday object, wondering, "can I recycle this?" This simple question reaches into our concern for the environment, the care we take to keep our homes and our communities clean, and how we interact with our local government. Recycling rules seem to differ in every municipality, with exceptions and caveats at every turn, leaving the average American scratching her head at the simple act of throwing something away. Taking readers on a quick but informative tour of how recycling actually works (setting aside the propaganda we were all taught as kids), Can I Recycle This gives straightforward answers to whether dozens of common household objects can or cannot be recycled, as well as the information you need to make that decision for anything else you encounter. Jennie Romer has been working for years to help cities and states across America better deal with the waste we produce, helping draft meaningful legislation to help communities better process their waste and produce less of it in the first place. She has distilled her years of experience into this non-judgmental, easy-to-use guide that will change the way you think about what you throw away and how you do it.

Download or read book Glass Packaging written by Assunta Camilo and published by Instituto de Embalagens LTDA. This book was released on 2022-02-02 with total page 981 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a time when society started to naturally value the circular economy, many people began to rethink the use of glass packaging. This is an interesting return to concepts once lost in the process of popularization of ready-to-drink products. Because it is inert (it does not change the flavor, smell, or color of the packaged product, thus contributing to consumers' health), glass packaging has gained prominence along with the wellness trend. In addition, flint containers also have the benefit of being transparent while the amber ones provide a barrier to light. In the perfumery segment, more than smell, the success of new fragrances depends on the design of the glass bottle. Some say that it is necessary to design the bottle with emotional ingredients, which encourage the consumer to see in the product an object of desire, before trying the fragrance. Glass packaging also delivers glamour and refinement to famous brands of spirits, premium mineral waters, and food. All types of packaging have their functions and applications and, of course, characteristics that differentiate them and make them more suitable for different moments of consumption. Glass packaging has a UNIQUE condition of reducing environmental impact: IT IS RETURNABLE. Glass has been present in packaging since the beginning. It is one of the oldest packaging materials in our history and, from the start, the fact that it is returnable, even before being reusable, makes it environmentally friendly. That is especially true when we can restrict the geographic area of supply. The reverse logistics process must be economically and environmentally sustainable, not to mention the social aspect. This solution democratizes consumption among people with lower available income because products are more competitive and, therefore, consumers can afford them. In addition, the sector continues to invest in the use of recycled content and to conduct studies on reducing the weight of bottles. Better Glass Packaging. Better World!
