Vision:

The Sustainable Packaging Coalition envisions a world where all packaging is…

• Sourced responsibly
• Designed to be effective and safe throughout its life cycle
• Meets market criteria for performance and cost
• Made entirely using renewable energy
• Once used, is recycled efficiently to provide a valuable resource for subsequent generations

In summary: we envision a true cradle to cradle system for all packaging.

Mission:

Our mission is to advocate and communicate a positive, robust environmental vision for packaging and to support innovative, functional packaging materials and systems that promote economic and environmental health through supply chain collaboration.

Approach:

• Provide a forum for supply chain collaboration
• Share best practices and design guidelines
• Support innovation and effective, new technologies
• Provide education, resources and tools

Organizational Structure:

The Sustainable Packaging Coalition is a project of GreenBlue, a not-for-profit, 501(C)(3) tax exempt organization. GreenBlue provides technical, administrative and mission support to the Coalition. The SPC is directed by a nine member Executive Committee that works with GreenBlue.
