Ultimately a product‘s essential makeup most strongly influences perceptions of its sustainability and motivates adoption. However, consumers view sustainable packaging options as a “simple” measure that all manufacturers can take, and therefore, a minimum requirement for all products, even if the product itself does not resonate as sustainable.
