Clearly see how your packaging compares so you can measure performance and make positive changes to reduce your impact upon the environment
Our database is comprised of data for over 55 million SKUs, with data constantly being collected and updated by our expert team who weigh packaging and analyse data provided by suppliers. This allows businesses to compare their performance against multiple metrics such as the weight, materials, and formats of packaging used by the rest of their industry, as well as metrics such as recyclability of packaging and recycled content.
These unique insights can support businesses in terms of highlighting where they are performing above average or showing areas where they can focus to make tangible changes. For example, we have helped companies identify material savings through light weighing packaging, or identifying packaging you could use that is more recyclable. Read more here about how we have supported Specsavers and Nandos Grocery International Ltd. to mitigate the impacts of EPR and find opportunities to improve packaging performance.
With new packaging Extended Producer Responsibility (pEPR) now in place and the introduction of the Plastic Packaging Tax legislation, businesses are reviewing their current use of packaging to forecast future costs which take into account the introduction of additional, higher costs and modulated fees.
Our Packaging Analysis service can enable you to find areas where you can mitigate costs and identify opportunities for improvement, including enhancing your packaging’s recyclability rating under the Recyclability Assessment Methodology (RAM). By aligning with RAM criteria, such as material choice and lightweighting, you can reduce your liability, improve sustainability, and ensure your packaging is future-ready.
Improve the quality of your data so accurate Benchmarking can take place. We’ll work with you to identify areas that need improvement and support you with additional data collection.
