綠色包(bao)(bao)裝(zhuang)”(Green Package),亦稱其為“環(huan)境(jing)之友包(bao)(bao)裝(zhuang)”(Environmental Friendly Package),是(shi)指對生(sheng)態環(huan)境(jing)和人體健康無害(hai),能循環(huan)復用(yong)(yong)和再生(sheng)利用(yong)(yong),可促進(jin)國民經(jing)濟持(chi)續發展的包(bao)(bao)裝(zhuang)。綠色包(bao)(bao)裝(zhuang)一般應具有五個方面的內涵:一是(shi)實行(xing)包(bao)(bao)裝(zhuang)減量化(hua)(Reduce)。二是(shi)包(bao)(bao)裝(zhuang)應易(yi)于重復利用(yong)(yong)(Reuse),或易(yi)于回(hui)收(shou)再生(sheng)(Recycle)。三是(shi)包(bao)(bao)裝(zhuang)廢棄物可以降(jiang)解腐化(hua)(Degradable)。
Reduce、Reuse、Recycle和Degradable即當今(jin)世界(jie)公認的(de)發(fa)展綠色包(bao)裝(zhuang)的(de)3R1D原則。四是包(bao)裝(zhuang)材(cai)(cai)料對人體(ti)和生(sheng)物(wu)(wu)應(ying)無毒無害。五(wu)是包(bao)裝(zhuang)制品(pin)從原材(cai)(cai)料采集、材(cai)(cai)料加工、制造(zao)產(chan)(chan)品(pin)、產(chan)(chan)品(pin)使(shi)用(yong)(yong)、廢(fei)棄物(wu)(wu)回收(shou)再(zai)生(sheng),直(zhi)到其最終處理的(de)生(sheng)命全過程均不應(ying)對人體(ti)及環(huan)(huan)(huan)境造(zao)成公害。也就是說包(bao)裝(zhuang)產(chan)(chan)品(pin)從原材(cai)(cai)料選(xuan)擇、產(chan)(chan)品(pin)制造(zao)、使(shi)用(yong)(yong)、回收(shou)和廢(fei)棄的(de)整個過程均應(ying)符合(he)生(sheng)態(tai)環(huan)(huan)(huan)境保(bao)護的(de)要求。它包(bao)括(kuo)了(le)節省資源、能源、減(jian)量、避免廢(fei)棄物(wu)(wu)產(chan)(chan)生(sheng),易回收(shou)復用(yong)(yong),再(zai)循環(huan)(huan)(huan)利(li)用(yong)(yong),可(ke)焚燒或降解等(deng)生(sheng)態(tai)環(huan)(huan)(huan)境保(bao)護要求的(de)內容。綠色包(bao)裝(zhuang)的(de)內涵隨(sui)著(zhu)科技的(de)進步(bu)還將有待發(fa)展完善。
