Abstract: An individual’s choice of lifestyle will have an impact on our environment; for
example, the choice of purchasing a non-sustainable product against a
sustainable product. The objective of manufacturers and suppliers is to meet the
changing needs and wants of an increasing population. Various studies and
statistics have been conducted to illustrate the impact of packaging on the
environment; infact, in a year approximately 50 million tons of waste is
generated, with around 120 billion units being product packaging. Plastic is one
of the most popular materials used within the manufacturing industry; thus, the
European Union issued new regulations and strategies, such as the Industries
Policy Strategy. The latter strategies ensure that all companies abide to laws and
regulations to help reduce the amount of waste generated. Additionally,
customers are becoming more conscious about the environment hence
manufacturers and suppliers are looking into producing eco-friendly products.
The objective for this project is to design a sustainable and modular cosmetic
case. The reason behind choosing a modular approach towards this design is to
enable customer to re-use most of the product packaging, which will
automatically help to reduce the environmental burden. Additionally, sustainable
material was selected for this project, so as to ensure that the consumer can still
purchase the requested product without having a negative impact on the
environment, when disposing of the product at the end of its product life cycle.
