The material covers the fundamentals of ecological design (eco-design), the properties of packaging materials, recycling issues, and the principles of minimizing the environmental impact of packaging.

      During the course, key aspects of packaging planning are discussed, such as user needs analysis, material selection, waste reduction, and optimization of logistics processes.
