There are a lot of definitions about packaging, but a broad and well-established one is as
follows. Packaging is “a coordinated system of preparing goods for transport, distribution,
storage, retailing and end-use; the means of ensuring safe delivery to the ultimate consumer in
sound condition at minimum cost; a techno-economic function aimed at minimizing costs of
delivery while maximizing sales (and hence profits).” (Hellström and Nilsson, 2011)
