These paper packaging examples celebrate the versatile and eco-friendly material. With the rise of plastic pollution, countless brands are opting for a more sustainable branding solution when it comes to their products' packaging. This is where paper comes in. The eco-friendly material is recyclable and lightweight, making it perfect for food, coffee or dessert products.
In addition to its environmentally friendly qualities, paper packaging is also easy to customize when it comes to color, text or graphics.
A standout from this list is Sitka's Salmon Shares packaging. This cardboard container concept is artfully illustrated and is conceived by CODO Design. The packaging design is not only sustainable but also supports the community fishery that "delivers fresh King, Coho and Sockeye salmon products from the heart of Sitka, Alaska."
