14 Jul 2020 --- As European plastic circularity targets draw closer, CEFLEX, the European consortium of companies representing the flexible packaging value chain, and UK sustainability non-profit WRAP, have both published new guidance on establishing effective recycling systems for flexible packaging. WRAP warns that urgent cross-sector action is required to meet the UK Plastics Pact target to make all plastic packaging reusable, recyclable or compostable by 2025. Similarly, CEFLEX’s guide aims to inspire “much needed investment in sorting and recycling infrastructure to make all flexible packaging circular,” in line with the EU Plastics Strategy’s requirements that all plastic packaging must be recyclable by 2030.
