Using Post-Consumer Recycled Content in Plastic Packaging Closures
Closures are critical to the plastic packaging system because they can protect the contents of the package and provide safety aspects for the consumer.
This shift is improving access to PCR for closures specifically and, as a result, increasing the amount of PCR used across all plastic packaging, including in more challenging situations such as food-contact packaging.
