Steel for Packaging Europe, the Association of European Producers of Steel for Packaging, has outlined its industry priorities for the 2024-2029 term. The organisation aims to put circularity at the heart of Europe’s economy while promoting recycling rates for steel.
Europe needs to focus on the lifecycle of steel packaging, ideally leading to improved recycling rates. Steel for Packaging Europe wants to convince people not to throw their steel packaging away with their general waste but to recycle it.
In terms of legislation, they think that landfill taxes need to be imposed and increased. This, they say, would incentivise municipalities and all stakeholders to stop relying on landfills.
Their vision is to no longer have steel packaging scrap going to landfills by 2025.
This special report looks at how these objectives can be achieved.Energy, Environment & Transport
