Abstract
The primary aim of packaging is to protect the product. The ergonomic issues related to the handling of packaging have so far come second. Most packages are handled manually in one way or another in all the different phases from manufacture to disposal as waste. That is why their design is so important— for work environment reasons and from an efficiency point of view. The objective of Packforsk's project Openability of retail packages is to develop a basis for the improvement of the ergonomic conditions connected with opening packages in retail stores.
