Improving Recycling of Automotive Plastic Packaging

The automotive industry has long relied on reusable containers, but lightweight plastic dunnage like foams and films remains difficult to recycle. A report created by Suppliers Partnership for the Environment, with support from RRS and Fisher Packaging, provides practical guidance and a playbook to help manufacturers recover these materials more efficiently. By outlining actionable steps, identifying barriers, and proposing scalable solutions, the study equips companies to reduce waste, lower costs, and enhance supply chain sustainability.

"This new report provides valuable insights and practical guidance for increasing the recycling of plastic packaging in the automotive industry, helping us to reduce waste and improve environmental outcomes."
