What is a circular economy for packaging?

Without doubt, single-use plastic bag takes up the biggest proportion in this world, although more and more people realize they do harm to our environment. Actually, some disasters are from humans, I believe. Pakistan are facing the extremely high temperature, flood and strong rainfall. Some pakistani die in this accident.

As a packaging manufacturer, we always think if we can have a better solution to improve the environment. However, it will be better much if we can change the single-use plastic bag into the circular packaging. "Can our packaging bags be made into other product? Reused some times?" Yes, recyclable bags can save it. For example, we make the bags with new PE materials and they will be made into other product, although they are laminated bags. Actually, the whole bags are made with one kind of PE materials. Or we can make the bags with Post-consumer Recycled(PCR) materials. Meanwhile, the recyclable bags are with high barrier to keep the food fresh. That will come ture to packaging multil-used. I think it is one way of circular economy for packaging.

The second way is biodegradable packaging bags. They can be industry compost or home compost like as belows. They will be degradable into air and water. They are nutrition of corn or plants and they will be good for our environment.

Single-use plastic bag can not be recyclable and degradable. They are not circular economy for packaging. I think, economy is not completely conflict of ecologic, but if we can come true to circular economy for packaging.
