Today’s consumer is aware and informed. A high-quality product, wrapped up in attractive, customizable packaging, is hardly going to be enough to entice him.
Today’s consumer not only understands his responsibility towards the environment but also takes it extremely seriously.
Therefore, he wants to ensure that the brands he is affiliated with, also take this responsibility seriously. He wants to know that those organizations use recyclable packaging for products.
In recent years, companies, much like individuals, have taken significant steps to fulfill this responsibility towards our planet.
One of the best examples of recyclable packaging is 60BAG. This is a special kind of bag, designed using non-woven, viscose fabric, which decomposes after sixty days from the day it is discarded.
