Abstract

Within the current context of the Grenelle Environment Round Table, French government advocates source reduc- tion strategies for over-packaging. But, companies wonder about their impact on consumers. Thanks to video recorded observations and interviews with consumers, this paper aims at examining their practices of purchase, storage and destruction of over-packaging and their beliefs towards them. The findings reveal that over-packaging, which can be unnoticed, is questioned by some consumers. The results allow us to evaluate over-packaging's perceived usefulness according to six criteria for four profiles of consumers and to propose managerial recommendations in terms of over- packaging removal by adapting products, communication as well as distribution.
