Recyclable Packaging Ranks Highest With Consumers (Brandweek)

Following a referenced 1,600 person interview, people ranked the following packaging features in order of importance:

  • Being recyclable via placement in curbside bins
  • Biodegradability
  • Minimal packaging
  • Recycled content
  • Refillable containers
  • Alternative reuse containers
  • Compostable

The authors point out, as I agree, that it’s interesting minimal packaging and recycled content were lower ranked, even though these two activities end up producing less material and use fewer virgin materials to begin with.
