Position paper - AmCham EU response to the public consultation on the review of the Packaging & Packaging Waste Directive

AmChamEU members have embedded circularity in their business plans and recognise that more needs to be done in order to create well-functioning secondary raw materials markets and to improve efficiency in the use of resources. This includes reduction in use of virgin material, further removing unnecessary packaging, increasing reuse as well as use of recycled content in their products or packaging, which requires significant capital expenditure. AmChamEU members are also investing on packaging innovation at scale, on both product design and recycling technologies. Making progress on all those fronts will also contribute significantly to the climate neutrality objective Europe is aiming at.
