Abstract

Today, the world is under the big risk of environmental pollution. In this critical situation, we need to preserve our products without any damage which requires packaging. The classical EOQ models have been derived without considering the packaging charge. But it is very essential to pack the products produced with the proper materials safely which justifies the inclusion of packaging charge. As some of the parameters vary and change, the fuzzy mathematical model has been developed. Graded Mean Integration Representation Method has been used to defuzzify the total charge and to find the optimal order quantity. The sensitivity analysis has been performed to study the effects of changes of various charges in the total charge.
