Being the brand of green elephants, I have noticed a new trend of environmental-friendly packaging solutions.

I intend to cover '10 packaging ideas with a green touch' that will be in the right direction of environment fans and at the same time do excessive justice to elegance of the products.

1. Plant Table Packaging

A most advanced move in packaging that I have come across is plan table packaging. This is where they utilize paper embedding with seeds.

Clients who have used the product in question can plant the packaging; by doing this, flowers or herbs are then tended from the packaging material.

On the other hand, passage of time brings benefits with environmental benefits being the usual suspects.

Key Benefits:

• No waste, Recycling and Energy Efficiency
• Gardening activity
• Delightful, enduring bond with customers

2. Mushroom Packaging

I found out several companies making mycelium which is the threadlike part of the fungus, to be a base and then crafted into any shape.

It can be implemented as an ecological alternative to Styrofoam.

Advantages:

• Minimized trash and pollution control provisions in use
• Customized packaging
• Protection from damage

3. Seaweed-Based Packaging

I learned that certain companies are using seaweed to manufacture packaging that gradually dissolves in water.

Such a material is special in sustainable, low-cost food and beverage packaging.

Benefits:

• They can be eaten with others and are the most harmless
• Dissolving in water immediately and changing into new substances
• They become abundant and renewable in just a few months

4. Reusable Glass Containers

There is again a return in the use of glass containers with deposit systems.

In this regard, customers become motivated to return and reuse the packaging.

Advantages:

• There is an ongoing recovery and use of waste, thereby reducing raw material consumption and protecting natural reserves
• Preservation of product quality
• Increasing customer loyalty

5. Coconut Husk Packaging

I did research on raw materials and found out that agricultural waste can also be converted into custom packaging boxes that best protect the goods they are carrying.

This ease of use is important for packaging electronics and breakable items.

Key Benefits:

• Biodegradable
• Out of the materials, until a certain limit that the material can absorb, the space offers a good shock resistance to the articles being packed
• Recycling after undergoing curd staining the apples in numerous ways

6. Corn Starch Packing Peanuts

I have noticed that the change from traditional Styrofoam packing peanuts to those made out of corn starch is much in evidence.

It can be easily dissolved in water by dropping this packing material into the water, and it is a kind of packing that is completely biodegradable.

Advantages:

• Don't pollute unlike polystyrene and its derivative
• Easily dissolving into water
• Manufacturers use renewable resources to make the packing peanuts

7. Beeswax Wraps

I have discovered an alternative to plastic wrap by getting beeswax wraps.

These are antibacterial wraps, naturally made from cotton and coated with beeswax, jojoba oil, and tree resin

Benefits:

• Eco-Friendly, Funny and Creative
• Natural antibacterial properties
• The other good thing is that at the end of the life of the product it can be decomposed biologically.

8. Banana Leaf Packaging

I came to understand that some tropical brands use banana leaves for packaging due to its natural availability in tropical regions. They are mostly used in food.

Key Advantages:
