Recycled PET in Retail Packaging
Using recycled PET (rPET) in packaging can deliver compelling commercial, environmental and strategic benefits for suppliers and retailers alike, with proven technology and standards.
WRAP hosted the UK's first rPET packaging conference in February 2007 in London. The day attracted more than 200 people from across the whole industry sector.
The conference, called 'The Opportunity for Recycled PET in Retail Packaging' was aimed that those involved in the manufacturer, supply, retailing and recycling of PET packaging. It featured talks from leading organisations such as The Coca Cola Company, Marks & Spencer, the Food Standards Agency, Nextek, Recoup and WRAP.
The conference put the spotlight on the business advantages of using recycled PET, available and future technology, regulation and legislation, material supply of food grade PET and consumer perceptions.
