Conference Day 1

THINK-TANK INTERACTIVE SESSION

FIBCs can be recycled when properly collected, sorted, and processed. The think-tank aims to encourage EPR through options like deposit-refund or licensed FIBC collection / drop-off. Broad manufacturer and supplier support is key for success, as shown by the PET bottle industry. Following Design for Recycling (D4R) guidelines is crucial. We provide a platform for stakeholders to develop practical solutions.
