This metric is intended to capture the weight of packaging used by the organization. Organizations may also wish to report Packaging Type (PD2285). Weight of packaging is a common way to measure how much packaging is used, which is relevant in assessing the environmental implications of an organization's products.
This metric is based on SASB CG-HP-410a.1.
Metrics identified as "cross-category" are those that are relevant to any IRIS+ Impact Category or Impact Theme (i.e., these metrics are not specific to any particular industry/category or theme).
