Abstract

Packaging logistics plays an important role in today’s economy, because a well-chosen packaging can significantly increase the market share of a company. However, packaging has advantageous impacts on the purchasing, production and distribution processes, but negative impact must be also taken into consideration focusing on sustainability, costs, environmental impacts and logistics. Within the frame of this article, the author suggests a potential model structure for non-reusable packaging logistics focusing on the type of the collection and distribution routes, number of senders and receivers, location of recycling or disposal, maintenance and cleaning location, existence of agents, logistics centers and central depots. The suggested approach makes it possible to derive the typical supply chain models for both non-reusable and reusable packaging. Within the frame of this article, the most important supply chain models for non-reusable packaging logistics are described.
