At Silgan we incorporate #PCR or Post Consumer resin to a handful of our plastic closures. We are aiming to lower the carbon footprint in packaging by starting with one of the most sustainable packaging materials, plastic. In alignment with the policy position at America’s @plasticmakers we are tackling the challenge of a circular economy and “5 Actions for sustainable change” which requires a national recycled plastic standard to jumpstart new recycling initiatives. #sustainability #carbonprint #sustainablepackaging #worldenvironmentday

The US Plastics Pact unveils Roadmap 2.0 🌍 The US Pact recently announced the extension of its 2025 Pact targets to 2030, dubbed as Roadmap 2.0 for driving forward the circular economy for plastics. The updated targets reflect an evolution in strategy, aiming to build on the initial successes and address broader impacts of plastic use, including social and community aspects, reducing virgin plastic dependence, eliminating problematic plastics, boosting recycling and reuse rates. While there are some criticisms regarding the timeline extension, the commitment to practical, impactful steps and collaboration among stakeholders remains strong.
