.Is your packaging Easy to Open? Easy to close? Does your packaging need a knife to open?
The accessibility of a product essentially relates to the ease of use a consumer experience when interacting with a product. Making a product accessible and easy-to-use or open adds value to a product for all. Accessibility is especially important for the independence of those with functional limitations such as reduced strength or dexterity. Groups particularly impacted are those with a disability, chronic pain, injury or illness, as well as the growing ageing population. For these groups inaccessible packaging and products become daily barriers to achieving everyday tasks like preparing a healthy meal and living independently.

MINI TRAINING COURSE 2: STEPS TO DESIGN SUSTAINABLE PACKAGING: GUIDELINES FOR PRIMARY, SECONDARY & TERTIARY PACKAGING
DATE: Wednesday 4 February 2026

Achieving the lowest possible environmental impact can sometimes be very challenging, particularly when balancing various environmental criteria with other functional and commercial considerations. The Sustainable Packaging Guidelines (SPGs) have been established to assist the design and manufacture of primary, secondary and tertiary packaging that meets the sometimes-conflicting demands of the market, consumer protection, fit-for-purpose and functional packaging, shelf life, recycling and recovery and the overall environmental impacts.
.
Sustainable Packaging ultimately ensures that the design provides the lowest possible environmental impact compared to existing or conventional packaging and also takes into consideration trade-offs and un-intentional consequences through inadequate packaging design. Costs, price sensitivities, regional-focus, competitiveness of the country are all considerations that also need be discussed.
