Sustainable Packaging Supplier Checklist
When considering new packaging solutions, it is important to consider the sustainability offerings of different packaging suppliers. PSC members can use this checklist as a quick way to compare sustainable options offered by different suppliers, as well as to begin to understand the operations of those suppliers. This tool was donated by PSC Member Earth Animal.

Eco-Impact Packaging Life Cycle Assessment
Through a partnership with Trayak – a software solutions company, PSC members can evaluate different packaging systems to understand their comparitive environmental impacts using a streamlined lifecycle assessment.
A COMPASS analysis can show a company their hotspots for packaging and where to focus efforts to have the greatest impact when attempting to reduce their environmental impact. It can also be a way to see where improvement has been made, internally report these results, and track progress toward sustainability goals.

While there is substantial guidance around design for the environment in general, the Coalition identified a need to consolidate the thinking, the information and the best practices for packaging. We hope this guidance may provide a basis for education on sustainability considerations as they relate to packaging and to help bring them into the mainstream of packaging development.
