The World Packaging Organisation (WPO) will be formally launching the Chinese Translation of the Packaging Design for Recycling Guide on the 25th of November at the Save Food Forum, that will be held alongside of Shanghai World of Packaging (swop).
The guide will be launched by the Vice President Sustainability & Save Food, for the World Packaging Organisation (WPO), Mrs Nerida Kelton, in partnership with two WPO Members, Mr. Li Hua, President, China Packaging Federation and Mr.Jasper Liu, Assistant Director, MOFCOM Export Commodities Technology Service Center (Commodities Packaging), China National Export Commodities Packaging Research Institute (CEPI),
Circular Design is only effective when the relevant collection, sorting and recycling streams exist. To be able to apply recyclable packaging design, a certain fundamental knowledge of sorting and recycling processes is necessary. Packaging must, therefore, be suitable for state-of-the-art sorting and recycling processes, in addition to its basic functions (e.g., storage, transport, product protection, product presentation and convenience). The ‘Packaging Design for Recycling Guide’ is a starting point to better understand Best Practice examples, using state-of-the-art technology, that can then be applied and tailored to suit the recovery and recyclability capabilities and infrastructure on a regional and local level. The guide helps brands become recycle ready.
Please join the WPO, CPF and CEPI at this important launch for the region.
