國際貿易體系包裝印刷品永續發展目標之比較

Comparative Analysis of Sustainable Development Goals for Packaging and Printing Products Across International Trade Systems

全球永續發展目標（SDGs）的推行促使各大貿易體系提高進口商品在環保及永續方面的要求。本研究透過比較歐盟（EU）、北美（USMCA）、亞太（RCEP）與亞太（CPTPP）四大貿易體系，探討各體系對臺灣包裝與印刷品出口之SDGs相關規範及要求差異。研究發現，歐盟（EU）貿易體系法規具較高的強制性與明確性；北美（USMCA）貿易體系則較重視品牌自主規範與企業社會責任；亞太（RCEP）貿易體系傾向彈性導向與發展優先，永續規範較為寬鬆；亞太（CPTPP）貿易體系納入具法律效力之永續條款，逐步對齊高標準市場要求。本研究結果可提供包裝與印刷產業面對國際永續發展規範時之實務參考。

The implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) has driven major international trade systems to elevate environmental and sustainability requirements for imported goods. This study conducts a comparative analysis of four major trade frameworks—European Union (EU), United States–Mexico–Canada Agreement (USMCA), Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP), and the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans- Pacific Partnership (CPTPP)—to examine the differences in SDG-related regulations and requirements concerning Taiwan’s packaging and printed product exports. The findings reveal that the EU trade framework demonstrates high regulatory enforceability and clarity; the USMCA emphasizes brand-led standards and corporate social responsibility; the RCEP adopts a more flexible and development-oriented approach, with relatively relaxed sustainability requirements; while the CPTPP incorporates legally binding sustainability provisions, progressively aligning with high-standard markets. These findings offer practical insights for the packaging and printing industry in navigating international sustainability regulations.
