  latest trend in producing a sustainable
  packaging. The package producing method involves
  with collecting a set of polymers from renewable
  raw materials and decompose them back to biomass,
  carbon dioxide and water. It is costly to produce
  this kind of package.

  protective container these days. Packaging is
  known to be a part of brand image these days.
