The aluminium packaging recycling organisation Alupro has launched informative fact sheets to highlight the benefits of aluminium packaging. The fact sheets cover the recycling processes, collection rates, upcoming legislative changes and the carbon footprint of aluminium.
The documents will provide statistics and information about the material’s circular properties to packaging professionals, retailers, manufacturers and the wider supply chain. It will also support design for recycling decision making.
Tom Giddings, sustainability and public affairs manager at Alupro, said: “Sustainability, recyclability and resource efficiency are three key considerations analysed during the packaging design process. We wanted to create an easy way for packaging professionals to understand the superior properties of aluminium and access rigorous data to support their decision making.
“Infinitely recyclable, reformed endlessly and retaining its properties indefinitely, aluminium is a true sustainable success story. With exceptional properties and offering versatility for manufacturers, our ambition is to see aluminium used in an increasing percentage of packaging worldwide and always recycled in every market.”
