Package Modeling is a research and development tool for the Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) and packaging industries. Manufacturers can create a series of packages comparing different packaging materials to determine how the use of preferred materials could help reduce environmental impact and improve their scores in Wal-Mart's Sustainable Packaging Scorecard. Additionally, packaging suppliers and service providers can use the software to demonstrate how their products can help manufacturers improve their scores in the Sustainable Packaging Scorecard.
