Recycling of Packaging Are Complementary
January 04, 2024
Last week Smurfit Kappa voiced its support for the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR), in s a joint statement with print and paper advocacy association Two Sides.
Jonathan Tame, Managing Director of Two Sides, said: “Most of used cardboard boxes in the retail supply chain never enter the waste stream. Managed in a circular loop system from retailer back to recycler, they are collected from supermarkets and returned to paper mills often within 14 days and then remanufactured back into new packaging.”
Saverio Mayer, chief executive, Smurfit Kappa Europe, said: “The cardboard industry is a frontrunner in delivering Europe’s green transition with a product that is 100% recyclable, renewable and biodegradable.
The EU Parliament has recognised that reuse and recycling of packaging are complementary and robust recycling systems that have existed for decades run by hundreds of small and medium-sized European businesses are cornerstones of EU policies for environmental sustainability.”
