Packaging: Plastic or Paper ?

In recent years, as the world struggels with the environmental consequences of plastic pollution, many have turned to paper packaging as a seemingly more eco-friendly alternative. Paper packaging is often perceived as a more environmentally friendly alternative to plastic, but it has its own set of challenges. These include non-sustainability, the use of chemical coatings that make recycling difficult, deforestation, and the substantial industrial consumption of water.

In the plastic packaging industry however, efforts have been made to make plastic packaging more sustainable through various means, such as biodegradability and increased recycling.
