KEY FACTS<br />
CARTON &<br />
BOARD MAKING<br />
<strong>Carton</strong>board <strong>and</strong> paper-based packaging can be part of a solution against global food waste <strong>–</strong> which<br />
amounts to as much as 1.3 billion tonnes per annum <strong>–</strong> between one-third <strong>and</strong> one-half of food<br />
produced for worldwide consumption.<br />
Efficient packaging helps to reduce damage in transit. It prevents waste through breakage, spoilage,<br />
contamination <strong>and</strong> extends product shelf life.<br />
On average 90% of European consumers prefer paper/cardboard packaging underst<strong>and</strong>ing that it is<br />
better for the environment. (<strong>Pro</strong> <strong>Carton</strong> 2021 European Consumer <strong>Packaging</strong> Perceptions Study).<br />
<strong>Packaging</strong> provides product <strong>and</strong> br<strong>and</strong> differentiation through unique design concepts <strong>and</strong> carries<br />
legal <strong>and</strong> other important product information for the consumer.<br />
