Sustainability
Packaging and waste don’t need to be synonymous. What if the materials used to ship, contain, and display products were actually part of a solution? The truth is that the apparel industry creates record amounts of plastic waste every year. But retailers and brands don’t want that. Consumers don’t want to buy into that. And everyone wants transparency. We’re offering a series of solutions that will make your sustainability story shareworthy. Avery Dennison’s portfolio of sustainable packaging begins at the factory and ends at home in a way that both brands and consumers can be proud of. Recycled content, plastic free, compostable, or carbon neutral options are available for factory, e-commerce, and even retail applications.
Making packaging digitally connected increases the possibilities for supply chain transparency and traceability. Crucial data and information can leverage internal process improvements, as well as communicate externally to the end consumer, who are becoming increasingly interested and engaged by brands’ ecological efforts. Avery Dennison offers solutions that support digital triggers for packaging such as QR codes and RFID tags. These work alongside our data platform, atma.io connected product cloud as well as applications to increase transparency and visibility. The technology allows brands and businesses to create a “digital twin” of their physical product. That digitization of product and packaging allows enterprises to unlock the ability to create a more sustainable value chain; tracking carbon footprint, identifying areas of waste with the ultimate ambition of keeping products in circulation longer through reusable packaging, enabling improved sortation/collection of both product and packaging.
