SMART PACKAGING

The increasing role of Smart Packaging Smart packaging is still evolving, but we cannot ignore its importance. Agile businesses are looking at packaging as a possible holistic solution to transform the way they deliver, sell, and use products. Innovative smart packaging applications are being embraced by market leaders across industries who are trying to leverage the benefits of smart packaging solutions to enhance their operations and at the same time provide an unparalleled customer experience.

Smart packaging can help avoid such counterfeits and combat excessive losses for companies. By using advanced technologies such as block-chain, brands can create a secure, unalterable record of a product’s origin as well as the path to market.

Inventory & lifecycle management Smart packaging can provide solutions to common supply chain challenges including sourcing raw materials from suppliers, managing the supply chain, and delivering products to the final customer. With smart packaging solutions, companies can gain real-time ability to track and trace the exact product location in the production and distribution cycle. It also offers benefits including agility, quality and safety, and sustainability.
