Environmental and Material Insights
The Greif Advantage
Environmental and Material Insights
Sustainability decisions and compliance reporting require facts. When your team needs to understand the environmental profile of your packaging, we provide the methodology and the data to do it credibly.
Environmental claims in industrial packaging are increasingly subject to regulatory scrutiny. The services in this domain are not about messaging. They are about equipping your sustainability, compliance, and procurement teams with defensible data to support reporting, inform material decisions, and meet the growing requirements of customers, regulators, and internal stakeholders alike.
You interpret the data. You own the reporting. We give you the foundation to do both with confidence.
"Facts first. Credible data is the only reliable foundation for environmental decision-making."
Services in This Domain
Herramienta verde Greif
The Greif Green Tool applies life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology to help you understand and compare the environmental impact of different packaging choices. It is designed for customers who need to support internal reporting, respond to customer requests for environmental data, or evaluate packaging alternatives on a consistent, comparable basis.
What you get: LCA-based environmental data for your packaging choices, available in both complimentary and paid formats, to support compliance reporting and internal decision-making. The tool provides methodology and output. Interpretation, disclosure, and reporting decisions remain with your team.
Auditoría de residuos
For customers within our paper business in North America, our waste audit service provides a focused, one-time assessment of your packaging-related recycling and material recovery practices. It is a practical, concrete evaluation, not a broad sustainability review.
What you get: a clear assessment of your current packaging recycling and material recovery practices, with findings that support both operational improvement and sustainability reporting. Note: currently available for paper business customers in North America only.
Environmental Conditioning Testing
Packaging that performs under ideal conditions does not always perform under real ones. Environmental conditioning testing evaluates how your packaging behaves across the temperature ranges, humidity conditions, and handling scenarios it will actually encounter in the field.
What you get: test results that reflect real-world environmental conditions, supporting specification decisions, compliance documentation, and claims you can stand behind.
