Upcoming Webinar: “Reuse in focus, challenges & opportunities for the PET industry”
Reminder: seize the moment & register TODAY!
The EU Commission promotes the following hierarchy in its packaging policies: REDUCE consumption, REUSE and RECYCLE. Thus, REUSE is becoming a significant pillar to support the ultimate goal of the EU to be climate neutral by 2050, in parallel with the all-other related actions for PET bottle light weighting and recycling.
The objectives of this webinar are:
- To communicate to the audience the PPWD measures across the EU,
- To present the REUSE status and legislative developments across the EU Countries,
- To share with the audience related activities of the industry,
- To update the audience on REUSE best practices across the EU.
