Packages made from renewable materials are essential for preserving the environment for future generations. Renewable resources can be replenished naturally over time and enable a move away from fossil fuel-based materials, reducing the environmental impact as well as improving resource efficiency.
The Sustainable Packaging display opened at the Museum of Brands, and will be showing a selection of initiatives that help reduce the burden of packaging on the environment.
