Title:

ENVIRONMENTALLY SUSTAINABLE SECONDARY PACKAGING

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/105960

Kind Code:

A3

Abstract:

An environmentally sustainable secondary packaging that reduces material usage, as well as production materials and costs. The secondary packaging is designed to provide clear visual display of the product contained therein and therefore utilizes a clear plastic packaging component. In the interest of increasing environmental sustainability of the secondary packaging, usage of clear plastic packaging material and also processing steps are reduced. Additional articles may be contained in the secondary packaging that need not be readily viewed by consumers when the secondary packaging is on display for sale in a retail store. Opaque packaging material, such as paperboard, may be used to cover and / or to enclose such additional articles without affecting visibility of the article to be displayed by the secondary packaging. Also in the interest of increasing environmental sustainability of the secondary packaging, usage of opaque packaging material is reduced as well.
