Sažetak
By introducing sustainable packaging, the business is imperative in developed production environments. Environmentally acceptable packaging solutions not only reduce their negative impact on the environment but also increase their positive reputation among consumers. The introduction of innovations in the product design phase makes the most significant progress towards creating an optimal packaging product. Such solutions are usually related to a single product or a group of similar products. When designing packaging, the focus should be on the choice of material that combines functionality and benefit for the environment, optimisation of material consumption and product functionality. In addition to everything mentioned, the designer should take into account the end of the product’s life cycle and design packaging that is easy to separate and recycle. Sustainable packaging supports a circular economy, where materials can be reused and recycled instead of becoming disposable waste. In addition to the aforementioned, the application of innovative design and technologies enables a more modern approach to product protection, reducing the need for physical packaging layers and making packaging lighter and easier to recycle. This research work created sketches of conceptual solutions for more sustainable packaging products, respecting the explained principles. In addition to the above examples, it is further explained how one can contribute to the improvement of the sustainability of packaging products.
