Repak said today that its Plastic Pledge Signatories achieved an average recycling rate of 72% in 2023, far surpassing EU Circular Economy targets of 50% by 2025 and 55% by 2030.

151 Repak members are Signatories of the Plastic Pledge, according to its sixth annual Plastic Pledge Report.

The Repak Plastic Pledge's four objectives are: prioritising the prevention of plastic packaging waste, minimising avoidable single-use packaging and promoting the reuse of packaging, helping Ireland deliver the EU's plastic recycling targets of 50% by 2025 and 55% by 2030, reducing complexity within the plastic packaging supply chain by simplifying polymer usage and eliminating non-recyclable components by 2030 as well as increasing the use of plastic packaging with recycled content,...

Zoe Kavanagh, CEO of Repak, said that the Plastic Pledge Signatories last year made remarkable strides toward fulfilling the ambitious goals of its Plastic Packaging Recycling Strategy 2018-2030.
