The @EP_Environment's support for more ambitious recyclability measures in the #PPWR is a crucial step for the Union’s #sustainablepackaging objectives.
Recyclability performance grades now introduced in the PPWR will set the standard for a truly #CircularEconomy.
Looking towards the Plenary, we hope to see a wider support for a far-reaching definition of high quality recycling, emphasising materials' ability to withstand multiple recycling loops without changes to their main material properties.
#Aluminium, #glass and #steel are leading by example: thanks to their potential to be recycled over and over again, they are permanent resources for closed material loop schemes. This translates into greater resource efficiency and offers substantial environmental, economic, and social benefits.

The @EUCouncil formally adopted the new Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation!🥳
The Permanent Materials Alliance (#aluminium, #glass, #steel) welcomes this milestone and shares its priorities for the #PPWR implementation and new legislative term 👉 https://t.co/4aMexMhkCg
Considering the EU's growing need for secondary raw materials and its sustainability commitments, continuing to modernise the EU's waste framework is a necessary step towards establishing a resource-based framework fit for the transition to a low-carbon and circular economy.
✅ Shift the #EU policy from its waste focus to a more resource-based focus
✅ Ensure effective implementation of the EU circular economy legislation

We endorse the announcement by @vonderleyen re-elected President of @EU_Commission to propose a new #CircularEconomy Act in the next mandate.
This aligns with our two key policy priorities for the next legislative term 2024-2029:
Promoting the right materials to ensure that the output of recyclates is valuable and usable will be vital to establish a #sustainable circular economy.

That's why, when legislators look to implementation, they should take inspiration from materials like #aluminium, #glass, and #steel, which keep their original properties even after being recycled multiple times.

You can learn how permanent materials like #aluminium, #glass, and #steel, which are easily recyclable multiple times without losing their original properties, are already championing circularity➡️ https://t.co/gS9YCdCvyg

We’re pleased that @Europarl_EN has formally approved the Trilogue agreement on the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (#PPWR) today.
We are now on the final stretch as we look ahead to its publication and entry into force this Autumn.

@Europarl_EN @APEAL_EU @EU_Aluminium@FeveEU@metal_packaging This is a great step towards a truly circular economy in Europe, which supports the collection and recycling of waste to minimise our reliance on virgin materials.

By endorsing #highqualityrecycling, relying on the availability of efficient separate collection and sorting systems, Member States should be ambitious as they implement collection targets and push for high targets for all packaging materials supporting a #circulareconomy.
2/3
#Aluminium, #glass, and #steel are perfect examples which offer great performance and can be recycled and repurposed repeatedly without the loss of their inherent qualities.

Though Institutions are looking to wind down due to the upcoming elections, we know the next mandate will be about implementation. On #PPWR, @EU_Commission will need to establish recyclability performance grades. 💡

♻️ Packaging designed for recycling, together with effective collection, sorting, and recycling is the only way forward for a truly EU #CircularEconomy.
