Packaging can be a great help to protect items during transportation, providing information and showcasing its content. On the other hand, due to their relatively short lifespan, they are a growing problem due to their use of resources and waste, often with difficulties to dispose or recycle. How do we deal with this?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

During this public sustainable packaging symposium at Burg Giebichenstein University of Art and Design Halle we brought together manufacturers of sustainable packaging alternatives, a technology expert, a sustainable entrepreneur and zero waste store representative, to discuss the current status and future outlook of more sustainable packaging design.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Besides sharing existing solutions and discussing new developments with the public, this symposium was the starting point for a three-day packaging prototyping workshop at the Burg Giebichenstein University of Art and Design Halle in collaboration with its startup center Designhaus Halle.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
