Degradable or recyclable packaging, environmentally benign chemicals, efficient transportation... 

Adventitious contaminants Any unwanted substance that inadvertently comes into contact with the packaging material before it is collected for recycling and that therefore may contaminate the plastic and negatively influence the quality of the product filled by a recycled packaging material.

How does the supply chain impact a product s score Notice that several of the decisions we discussed in previous chapters have a direct impact on a product and a company s score supplier management, transportation, emissions, waste, recycling, packaging, and so on. As more customers start comparing products and making purchase decisions reflecting their individual preferences, the supply chain will impact the top line revenues, in addition to the costs.
