Choosing labels with an environmental aim is a purchasing decision, not just a design choice. Start with the packaging system you already use and ask what change you want the label to support.<\/p>\n

Define the improvement you want<\/h2>\n

You might want to reduce waste in a short print run, use a face material with recycled content or make the label compatible with the packaging\u2019s disposal route. Those are different goals. Specify the one you need rather than asking for a generally \u201cgreen\u201d sticker.<\/p>\n

Match the label to the packaging<\/h2>\n

Identify the container material, application surface and likely conditions. A label that falls off during use or forces you to replace the packaging may create avoidable waste. Test the proposed construction on the real item.<\/p>\n

Ask the supplier useful questions<\/h2>\n
