Product packaging has a huge impact on the efficiency of supply chain activities. In this research, the concept of Design for Assembly (DFA), proved in earlier studies to be effective at improving product manufacturing operations, is applied to the packaging system. We formulate the packaging system as a mathematical model for three different objectives. With respect to the continual rise in attention paid to sustainability, this research adds sustainability as one of the primary objectives. A case study demonstrates that the proposed model can achieve desired results and reveals a level of consistency among the three objectives. In addition to the application of DFA concepts to a packaging system, the contributions of this research lie in the development of a mathematical model (using integer programming and goal programming) for calculating the cost, handling time, and sustainability of the objectives in line with the design needs of the multi-level packaging size from the perspective of a supply chain to provide a range of solutions offering increased options for firms.

产品包装对供应链活动的效率产生巨大影响。在这项研究中，组装设计（DFA）的概念在包装系统中得到了应用，该概念在早期研究中被证明可以有效地改善产品制造操作。我们将包装系统公式化为针对三个不同目标的数学模型。关于持续关注可持续性的问题，本研究将可持续性作为主要目标之一。案例研究表明，提出的模型可以达到预期的结果，并揭示了三个目标之间的一致性。除了将DFA概念应用于包装系统之外，
