Green Packaging Design Strategy (I)

The sustainable development of the ecological environment is the most pressing issue faced by human beings in the 21st century. Green packaging design is rooted in the increasingly serious environmental pollution in the process of modern industrial development. People began to explore new concepts proposed by new design patterns. Based on the strategic thinking of sustainable development, China has also adopted corresponding legislative work and countermeasures, and has continuously enhanced public awareness of environmental protection and eliminated the direct and indirect environmental pollution caused by the design, production, and consumption of physical products.
The total development of tungsten related design problems related industries face new challenges in the market competition for product innovation design. It prompts people to face a basic problem again: what kind of packaging products the market needs, how to design these packaging products. It can thus be seen that the reality of the challenges associated with the environment and the relationship between pollution and consumption will enable designers and engineers to work towards the long-term goal of protecting energy and resources. At the same time, in the face of new design objects, the change packaging design must have new design strategies and methods to adapt to it. We must not only consider meeting the needs of functions, visual aesthetic effects and market purchasing power, but also must consider environmental factors. Therefore, the green packaging design will focus on the ecological balance between man and nature, reduce the destruction of the living environment as much as possible to frame the design strategy, and promote the development of economic culture and society with green packaging design.
First, on the green packaging design For a long time, people's understanding and practice of packaging design is based on market demand and product promotion, its design and creative focus on the two areas of goods and sales to consider, people already think that packaging is often Built-in products are more important. Changing the design of a package means changing the product itself. Environmental issues are rarely involved throughout the design process. Since the 1990s, the environmental challenges have caused people to respond appropriately in the packaging design process. Many packaging companies and design companies have begun to implement environmental protection ideas from the design leader. Sonorco, one of the world’s largest packaging companies, has taken environmental protection measures for its products since 1990. It has proposed to society that we have created it. We will recycle its promise and start recycling it from users. Products prevent the spread of packaging pollution in society. At the same time, how to consider the impact in design has become a hot topic in design research in recent years. Green packaging design treats packaged products as an organic element of human survival. Packaging products are designed with materials that are non-polluting to the human body and the environment, and are recyclable or recyclable. Their requirements are the market demand, design, development and production of packaged products. The recycling cycle of recycling after use, transportation, sales and use, and the interaction between packaging design products and people and the environment at each stage of the cycle. At the same time, it emphasizes that human beings follow the laws of ecology and social aesthetics, and use scientific tactics and methods to make artificial articles conform to natural humanistic characteristics. What it brings to people is not a transient visual shock but a lasting material and spiritual enjoyment. . Green packaging design mainly involves the following aspects.
1. The green packaging design will focus on the implementation of environmental protection strategies and establish new methods and tools to regulate the impact of packaging products on the environment at each stage of its cycle.
1) Establishing matching design specifications for packaging product design and environmental protection;
2) Effective monitoring and follow-up analysis of the input and output of packaged products during the use of logistics;
3) Establish an assessment model for environmental protection, and at the same time, conduct risk assessment on the design and production activities that are detrimental to the environment.
2. To research and develop packaging materials and production processes that are beneficial to human health and environmental protection. At the design stage, sufficient market research and technical analysis are performed on the requirements for packaged products, such as the range and degree of human health damage in the process of production, use, and waste recycling, and the design and control measures to eliminate and control pollution sources. Packaging materials are designed logistics media, especially packaging materials used in the packaging of daily necessities, such as food and clothing. Part of the contact with the person and the dust in the use mode, the chemical residue of the attachments, and the diffusion of gas have an impact on people's health. It is difficult to measure and prevent dangerous situations, but the designer's environmental awareness has prompted him to select materials that are non-toxic, non-polluting, recyclable, and degradable at the design stage.
3, green packaging design to determine the goal from the various stages of the packaging product cycle. Green packaging design is not only an art discipline, but more importantly, it is an engineering discipline. Therefore, it is necessary to intensify the packaging engineering idea, and to develop a design from the overall perspective of the system cycle, once the packaging product design proposal is confirmed, the organic cycle of the entire product is determined. The impact on the environment has become established. Therefore, the relevant environmental protection measures at the production, transportation and recycling stages must be considered concurrently in the design leading stage. (To be continued)
