What they're saying about
Packaging Sustainability...

"Though the book's case studies focus on package design, its message is applicable to all disciplines...Packaging Sustainability avoids typical green clichés and delivers clarity and breadth on sustainable design practice."

Kristian Bjørnard
ID Magazine, May 2009

"...a book that can and should be read by anyone and everyone interested in sustainability from a buyer or seller, user or provider perspective."

Dennis Salazar
Inside Sustainable Packaging, April 2009

With initiatives like the Walmart Scorecard in the U.S. and the E.U.'s Packaging Directive, delivering sustainable packaging is now an integral part of today's global competitive market.

Written by practitioners from the wide variety of fields that make up the packaging industry, Packaging Sustainability is a comprehensive, single source of actionable information that enables everyone involved in the design and development process to make smart, informed decisions, opening new possibilities for creating truly innovative solutions.
