Why we need to rethink the future of plastic
95% of the value of plastic packaging material, worth USD 80-120 billion annually, is lost to the economy.1 Using recycled material can help increase recycling rates2 and help make recycling more economically viable. And using third-party certification when sourcing the recycled material can help ensure the material is produced in a sustainable way.
Increasing the use of renewable materials
In 2019, we became a signatory of the New Plastics Economy Global Commitment of the Ellen MacArthur Foundation. As one of our commitments, we will incorporate a minimum of 10% recycled plastic content on average across our beverage cartons sold in Europe by 2030. We also aim to use recycled plastics for distribution solutions.
This development means less dependence on fossil-based plastic and helps keep existing resources in use for as long as possible. Our long-term ambition is clear: for all our packaging to use renewable or recycled polymers, ending the extraction of fossil feedstock and supporting the transition to a low carbon circular economy.
