Sustainability

Eco-friendly materials & methods

At GPA Global we design and deliver packaging solutions that are both cost-effective and sustainable. We achieve this by preventing the waste of packaged products, optimizing material usage, and reducing transport trips.

The green face of packaging – included as standard

The GPA team keeps the environment at the forefront of our packaging solutions, which means we first select the right materials, then work to reduce waste. We consider the smallest details to ensure that we stick to our green packaging roots, consistently seeking ways to remove, reduce, and reuse resources.

We utilize a range of eco-friendly materials, including molded pulp, wood free paper, and water-based glues. Our goal is to provide the best sustainable materials and remain cost neutral. If specific sustainable materials cost more than other less desirable materials, we look for ways to offset that cost increase.

Our vision

Plastic Pollution is taking over our landfills, and in our oceans, it has created at least five floating plastic islands called gyres. Ocean pollution is causing irreparable damage to our waterways, ocean’s ecosystem, and the wildlife in the surrounding wetlands. Chemicals such as Bisphenol-A (BPA), Phthalates, Styrene and more leach out of the containers and contaminate food, beverages, and personal care products.

Minimising the direct environmental impact. We achieve this by optimising packaging through design and innovation.
Minimising the indirect environmental impact. We achieve this by optimising packaging performance across the entire supply chain.
