As sustainability becomes an increasingly pressing issue, more and more businesses are looking for ways to reduce their environmental footprint. One area where this is particularly important is packaging.

Every year, billions of plastic containers and other packaging items end up in landfills and oceans, causing significant harm to the environment. One solution to end the waste issue problem is refillable packaging — a trend quickly gaining momentum in many industries, especially in the cosmetic industry.

The supply chain is becoming more sustainable, one innovative step at a time. Mercedes-Benz already announced plans to release ten new EV models by next year, in line with many other auto manufacturers committing to greener vehicles.

September 25, ​Saratoga, CA ​- ​Golden Arrow, a global manufacturer of sustainable and eco-friendly packaging solutions, has created a colored molded fiber line of packaging that exhibits a vibrant variety of hues new to the industry. Midnight Blue, Monarch Orange, Taffy Pink, Aqua Blue, and Olive Green are the first standouts of this line, on display at the 2018 Luxepack Monaco tradeshow.

Plastic is a part of our everyday lives, present in everything from the toys our children play with to the foam cushions on our couches. Chances are good that you likely drink out of a plastic water bottle and rely on the plastic mouse you need to use your computer, and that is why it is so difficult to imagine a world where plastic is not a part of our everyday lives.
