Plastics Europe feedback on the technical screening criteria (TSC) for determining the conditions under which an economic activity qualifies as contributing substantially to the transition to a circular economy

Plastics Europe members support accelerating towards a more Circular Economy for plastics packaging in Europe. We believe that the European Commission’s Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) proposal could serve as a catalyst to transform the plastics packaging industry by ensuring the recyclability of all plastics packaging, increasing the uptake of circular plastics1 and kick-starting reuse in many packaging applications.
