COMPASS (Comparative Packaging Assessment)

This presentation of COMPASS®(Comparative Packaging Assessment) will provide an overview of the Sustainable Packaging Coalition’s web-based packaging design screening life cycle tool. We will discuss its capabilities, metrics, attributes and material health. In addition, we will tie the GPP effort to the data and results available in COMPASS. The session will close with a brief discussion about sustainability measures based on the GPP and data imperative, practical ways of measuring progress without breaking the bank, and the need to strive towards greater primary LCI data sharing to benefit the whole packaging value network.
