Consumers are looking for convenience and sustainability in their food packaging
In today’s fast-paced world, convenience is at the forefront of consumers’ minds
Whether it’s ordering products with same-day delivery, cooking a quick meal or opening food packaging quickly and effortlessly, the demand for convenience just keeps growing. In a world where our most precious commodity is time, companies offering products and services that streamline everyday tasks and save time are the ones attracting more attention and loyalty from the modern consumer

Recyclable and easy-to-open packaging is more important to Spanish consumers than design and size.

Convenient packaging encompasses so much more than just ease of use: it’s about offering consumers solutions that match their lifestyles, values and expectations
With convenience as the key focus, packaging plays a crucial role in the consumer experience. Modern consumers aren’t just looking for products and services that offer convenient use – they also want that same convenience in their packaging.
What’s more, eco-conscious consumers are increasingly demanding sustainable packaging solutions that minimise environmental impact. They don’t want packaging that just ends up in the bin; they want it to be infinitely recyclable and they want a reduced carbon footprint.
Eviosys is known for its smart and sustainable packaging solutions. Not only are they inclusive and convenient, they’re also infinitely recyclable.
Consumer perceptions: a driving force for sustainability
The results show that 57% of consumers are willing to pay more for products in sustainable packaging, and 82% of them would be more likely to buy a product if it came in a metal container, knowing that metal can inherently be recycled again and again. This preference not only highlights a trend towards sustainability but also reflects a change in the consumer value system, with 70% placing greater importance on reuse and recycling than on luxury packaging or exclusive designs.
