Have your say on packaging reforms https://ift.tt/Jz25KIn The Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water is seeking feedback on packaging reforms. Interested parties can have their say this month, with consultation closing on October 28. The packaging reforms will impact the hospitality industry’s takeaway packaging materials, including takeaway containers and coffee cups. The reform aims to reduce the negative impacts of packaging on the environment. In 2021–22, 6.98 million tonnes of packaging was placed on the Australian market. The most prevalent packaging was paper and cardboard, making up about half of all packaging. Next was plastic, at 18.3 per cent, followed by glass, wood, and metal. The report states that the linear economy model (take, make, and dispose) as opposed to a circular one is adversely impacting the environment, human health, and the economy. These impacts are the results of packaging in landfill leaking into the environment and harming wildlife and ecosystems, and the inefficient use of natural resources. Under a circular economy, packaging would be designed to reduce waste, be recyclable, and used packaging would be collected and reused in packaging or other products. The department is seeking feedback on regulation from groups and individuals across the packaging system, including producers, brand owners, packaging importers and retailers, and waste collection and resource recovery businesses, as well as state and local governments, small businesses, consumers and advocacy groups. The government has provided three reform options: Option 1: Strengthening administration of the co-regulatory arrangement; Option 2: National mandatory requirements for packaging circularity; Option 3: An extended producer responsibility scheme for packaging. The government’s consultation paper outlines the benefits and risks of each option. The Boomerang Alliance, a national partnership of 55 environmental groups, is supporting the third reform option of a mandatory extended producer responsibility product stewardship model. This model will require packaging producers to be legally responsible for the packaging they distribute on the market, including mandatory targets to reduce, reuse and recycle packaging. The alliance believes the extended producer responsibility model is the only one that will bring Australia in line with best global practice. The detailed consultation paper is available here. Feedback can be submitted through the government’s consultation portal by Monday 28th October 2024.

🌍 Balancing Convenience and Sustainability in Packaging 🌍 As companies strive to meet the growing demand for sustainability, the challenge of reducing the environmental impact of packaging without compromising on functionality has become more pressing than ever. This was a central theme at last year’s Packaging Innovations event, where industry leaders like McDonalds and Waitrose explored innovative solutions. The event highlighted the delicate balancing act companies face—meeting consumer demand for sustainability while ensuring packaging remains practical, protects product quality, and maintains convenience. The road ahead? The goal should not be just to reduce plastic or switch to biodegradable materials. Instead, it’s also about finding ways to reduce waste, enhance recyclability, and improve overall sustainability. 🌱 #Sustainability #PackagingInnovation #CircularEconomy #SupplyChain #SustainablePackaging

♻️ YES! Pleeeeze! ♻️ Innovating Durable Cardboard Packaging for Beverages 🌱 Legislation banning plastic rings has been introduced in Delaware, New York, and Rhode Island, but companies aren't waiting for lawmakers to act. This is excellent news and more states need to join in. Beverage companies have been trying to develop sustainable, cardboard multi-pack packaging for years now, but they tend to face a functionality problem: they disintegrate too quickly when exposed to liquid. Now, Atlantic Packaging is releasing a more durable cardboard beverage holder. #Sustainability #EcoFriendly #PlasticBan #Innovation #PackagingSolutions #EnvironmentalImpact #SustainablePackaging #Legislation #CorporateResponsibility #GreenInitiatives #Recycling #EcoDesign #RenewableMaterials #SustainableDevelopment #CleanTech

We're working hard to reach our targets to reduce packaging and are pleased to announce another major step forward this year as we cut a further 100 tonnes of plastic packaging film on Roysters, Frisps and Discos. A process change has allowed us to reduce the plastic packaging on 6 packs of these popular brands by 35%, equivalent to a saving of 100 tonnes of packaging a year. While not affecting pack contents, the minimisation of packaging also means each pack takes less space and more products can be transported at once, cutting an estimated 620 lorry journeys a year and so also reducing greenhouse gas emissions from distribution. Just one more step on our continuing People & Planet journey to use as little plastic packaging as possible. #closingtheloop #investinginthefuture #plasticwastemanagement https://lnkd.in/eNsB4j6f
