| Book Description | Packaging has a major impact on supply chain performance, as it affects all logistics activities in supply chains. Effective and efficient packaging can significantly improve the performance of companies by generating value and reducing costs and the negative environmental impacts in supply chains. Packaging Logistics uses a systems approach to examine all the essential roles of packaging in supply chains, from the purchasing of raw materials to the production and sale of finished products, as well as transport and distribution. It examines the strategic role of packaging and its operational importance, explains the theoretical basis, presents useful methodologies, tools and concepts, and provides decision support for packaging innovation. It provides several examples of the total environmental impacts of packaging: on logistics and transport efficiency, on product waste and from the packaging material. Packaging Logistics covers essential topics such as one-way and reusable packaging, industrial and consumer packaging, ICT, end-of-life, environment, innovation, e-commerce, and future trends and challenges. This research-based and practical book takes the reader through every stage of packaging and relates it to supply chain and logistics, illustrated by many case studies. |
| Editorial Review | With the environmental problems posed by packaging waste now regularly in the news, the arrival of a book that puts packaging into a wider supply chain context is very welcome and timely. Henrik P lsson, one of the main international specialists in the field of packaging logistics, has provided us with a comprehensive, well-researched and clearly written overview of the subject that should be widely read across the academic and practitioner communities.--Alan Mckinnon, Professor of Logistics, Kuhne Logistics University "This is a fascinating must-read for not just everyone working with packaging, but absolutely everyone in logistics and supply chain management, from raw material suppliers to wholesalers, retailers, and logistics service providers - and even consumers. Unlike other books in this area, there is no gap but an integration and reconciliation of marketing and supply chain efforts when considering packaging. It is a successful combination of a pragmatic, reader-friendly introduction to packaging logistics spiced with insights from the author's own cutting-edge research."--Gyongyi Kovacs, Professor in Humanitarian Logistics, Hanken School of Economics |
