We have always used packages and containers to store and transport goods, from baskets and wooden boxes through to wooden barrels and metal vessels. However, since the age of the industrial revolution and the growth in capital markets around the world, packaging has become even more important than before. There were a number of advancements to packaging in the 20th century, including Bakelite enclosures on bottles, cellophane wraps, and the development of materials such as aluminium and plastic. There are a wide variety of plastic products that are used for packaging around the world, many of which were especially designed to help improve the performance and functionality of the food packaging industry. However, as environmental concerns have started to influence the wider packaging industry, many producers have decided to move towards recycled paper and other environmentally friendly materials.

The issues that surround sustainability in modern packaging are far reaching, including things like a life cycle assessment of various materials and the management of waste as well as production. The three Rs can also be very useful to packaging makers and producers when deciding upon materials, including reuse, reuse, and recycle. These issues can be further split up into other considerations, including the prevention of excess waste products, the minimisation of materials, the reuse of materials where possible, the use of recycled materials, correct disposal of packaging, and energy recovery from packaging components.

While photo chemical etching is still used in hobbyist and prototype circuit board manufacture, most commercial boards are made using a form of silk screen printing. Silk screen printing uses etch resistant ink that is used to protect the copper foil, with additional etching also used to remove unwanted copper layers from the final design. One other method of silk screen printing used in the modern circuit board industry involves printing conductive ink onto a blank board, a technique that is often used in the production of hybrid circuits. However, while silk screen printing may be the main method used in the commercial circuit board industry, the traditional method of photo etching is still used when fine linewidths are required.

Photo chemical etching is also known as photochemical machining or simply PCM, and is the process of fabricating sheet metal components using photoresist and etchants. In this process, these materials are used to corrosively machine away all of the selected areas. PCM is a highly efficient way to fabricate parts, and has a number of advantages over other methods of machining such as stamping, punching, laser cutting, and electrical discharge machining. While the process of photo chemical milling is not used that much in the fabrication of commercial circuit boards, it still plays a big role in the industry due to its ability to produce complex and intricate circuit board designs. Photo chemical machining is a process that grew out of the circuit board industry, and it will always be associated with the design and production of electrical circuits.
