Packaging Environmental Assessment Tool
What is PEAT ?
How are you currently packaging your products? Are you taking into consideration the environmental impact of your packaging materials? Is each aspect of your packaging process supply chain environmentally sound and conscious? Are you resourcing efficiently? Actively growing and developing your brand and sales?
PEAT, Packaging Environmental Assessment Tool, is an online tool that can help companies measure and report on the environmental performance of packaging, while in compliance with international standards.
The environmental impact of products and packing is under increasing scrutiny. The growing interest from the government, retailers and customers is forcing companies to consider how environmentally appropriate and green their products and packaging are. Companies are also being asked their footprint, not only for their operations, but also to measure the footprint and its potential impact on their products and packaging. Packaging provides product protections, preservations and presentation, but will usually be discarded as landfill waste.
We are here to reduce your companies carbon footprint and help improve sustainability, efficiency and your overall environmental impact.
What we do?
PEAT assessments help identify areas where improvement can be gained and cost saving made in packaging. We help companies better understand and track environmental impacts of products, materials and packaging from design to end of life. PEAT helps strengthen supplier and customer relationships and win more business from sustainability focused customers.
The impacts measure by PEAT include carbon, water, recyclability, recycled content, volumetrics, toxicity and a range of other cycle impacts. We have the expertise to help your company, and using PEAT, provide an external validation in line with global best practice sustainable packaging.
