To face this challenge, the European Plastics Pact accelerates the shifts toward the reuse and recycling of single-use plastic products and packaging.

meetings where we discuss and solve in real-time quality- or improvement potentials. We see that the closer we integrate with our customers the more successful the cooperation becomes. Working together is a very solid fundament of understanding our customers needs to run their production lines with high output and with as small as possible loss and waste

We work together towards four goals aimed at design, responsible use, recycling capacity and the use of recycled content. The Pact supports this work by offering a unique platform to exchange ideas, display good practice and discuss challenges, needed to build a new circular default for all to follow.
