The work aims to put forward some advices about formulating green packaging evaluation method and code standard to adapt to the development of China's packaging industry, by comparing the related domestic and international green packaging standard and regulation systems. The similarities and differences of green packaging standard systems among developed regions and countries, such as European Union, the United States, Japan and South Korea were compared. Based on that, the technological gaps of re-lated current green packaging standards in China and the issues existing in the process of formulating evaluation standard were summarized. It was found that the related green packaging standards in the countries except the United States were based on the EU regulations. The green packaging terminology of China was further confirmed and the concept of whole life cycle was introduced into China’s green packaging evaluation standard upon suggestion. The related green packaging standard systems in all other countries indicate an evident convergence, and also show some differences in concepts/terminologies and detailed evaluation methods/contents. China should make full use of the technical characteristics of green packaging evaluation standards from all other countries, in order to comprehensively evaluate the influence of resources, energy, environment and quality during the whole life cycle of packaging products.
