Este análisis bibliométrico mapea las tendencias globales en la interfaz entre envases sostenibles, logística inversa y economía circular en el período de 2015 a 2026. Durante este lapso, se observó un gran avance conceptual que converge hacia la consolidación de un dominio técnico-científico robusto, estructurado bajo el paradigma de la circularidad. Mediante el procesamiento de metadatos de Web of Science en VOSviewer, se identificó que la Evaluación del Ciclo de Vida (ACV) actúa como el principal sustento metodológico para orientar el ecodiseño. Este último se señala como la solución para mitigar las tensiones entre las demandas técnicas y los imperativos ambientales de biodegradabilidad y reciclaje, considerando la logística, el transporte y el protagonismo de la ciencia de materiales. El "Envase como Servicio" (PaaS) y la integración de sistemas inteligentes (IA e IoT) emergen como fronteras tecnológicas de ruptura frente a los modelos tradicionales, permitiendo la trazabilidad en tiempo real y la descarbonización de los flujos distributivos, principalmente en los grandes centros urbanos. Sin embargo, se constata una brecha crítica en la operacionalización logística intraurbana, derivada de la desconexión entre el refinamiento macromaterial del ecodiseño y la fluidez física en la dinámica de la última milla (last mile). Bajo la óptica de la geopolítica del conocimiento, el resultado expone una evidente hegemonía eurocéntrica en la producción científica, con redes de colaboración de alta centralidad impulsadas por marcos regulatorios consolidados. A pesar de la densidad bibliográfica brasileña reflejo de prominentes directrices regulatorias nacionales, el país aún ocupa una posición secundaria en la red colaborativa, lo que demanda una transición estratégica para liderar marcos transdisciplinares que contemplen las complejas realidades socioeconómicas y operacionais del Hemisferio Sur.
