Study on Multi-Criteria Evaluation for Selecting Sustainable Protective Packaging System

Abstract:

A proposed approach to multi-criteria evaluation for selecting sustainable protective packaging system has been developed based on life cycle thinking and quality function deployment (QFD). The method can be used to measure multiple aspects of performance for the protective packaging system quantitatively with regard to social, economic and environmental considerations and integrate the results into a sustainability indicator for directly comparing the overall efficiency of packaging solutions in practice. In the study, sustainability of the protective packaging system is described quantitatively based on multi-input/multi-output process analysis. The social performance of the protective packaging system is identified and quantified based upon QFD methodology. The multi-criteria evaluation, named sustainability assessment, can assist in optimum selection of protective packaging products and indication of potential improvements in protective packaging design and production.
