Initiatives

The Circular Economy for Flexible Packaging (CEFLEX) initiative is a collaboration of over 180 European companies, associations and organisations representing the entire value chain of flexible packaging. Together, they work to make all flexible packaging in Europe circular by 2025.

Flexible Packaging Europe (FPE) plays an advocacy role for the European flexible packaging industry at European and international level. The FPE deals with a diverse range of issues, most notably food contact, sustainability and the environment.

The Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) is an independent, international organisation providing the global common language for corporate transparency. It helps businesses and other organisations to understand and communicate their sustainability impacts, enabled through the world’s most widely used standards for sustainability reporting - the GRI Standards.

 
NEXTLOOPP’s mission is to bridge the gap in the circularity of food grade Polypropylene (PP). It implements innovative recycling processes to close the loop on PP to provide a food contact PP via mechanically recycled packaging from the post-consumer waste – which is unique in the polyolefinic packaging.

The Operation Clean Sweep (OCS) is an international program designed to prevent the loss of plastic granules like pellets, flakes and powders into the environment. This program has various benefits from its positive contribution to preserving water quality and wildlife to employee's safety and operational efficiency.

SAVE FOOD is an initiative dedicated to fighting against food waste and food loss. Together with their members from industry, politics and civil society, SAVE FOOD aims to drive innovation, promote interdisciplinary dialogue and spark off debates in order to generate solutions across the entire value chain “from field to fork” by involving all actors.

The United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) aims to encourage a global movement of sustainable companies and stakeholders to do business responsibly by aligning their strategies and operations with its ten principles on human rights, labour, environment and anti-corruption. It also calls for strategic action to advance broader social goals, such as the UN Sustainable Development Goals, with a strong emphasis on collaboration and innovation.

 
The UK PLASTICS PACT WRAP is an organisation developing a circular economy for plastic packaging in the UK bringing together companies from across the entire plastics value chain with UK governments and NGOs.
