We have signed the "Closing the loop for plastic packaging and beverage cartons" pact. Numerous companies along the entire value chain have jointly committed to the goal of establishing a sustainable recycling economy for plastic packaging and beverage cartons in Switzerland, and we share this commitment.
In this way, everyone is making a joint contribution to a sustainable future: away from a linear system and towards a sustainable circular economy for packaging in Switzerland. We take responsibility and together realize a sustainable circular economy for plastic packaging and beverage cartons.
Specifically, we are committed to the following goals:
- A harmonized, cost- and eco-efficient, consumer-friendly and coordinated circular economy system for plastic packaging and beverage cartons throughout Switzerland will be introduced.
- The better use of Design4Circularity allows for a closing of the loops and thus a reduction of the environmental impact.
- The use of recyclates becomes a matter of course.
- Suitable framework conditions for all actors prevent free riders and allow the economy to operate a system of extended producer responsibility within the respective legal framework.
- The system will be established in a way that is open to innovation and will continue to develop.
By signing the Pact, we are committing ourselves to the vision of recycling all packaging and recycling it in a high-quality manner by 2030.
