The challenges of Circular Economy on automotive packaging

Environmental concerns are imposed on companies, and it is necessary to anticipate the consequences for packaging in the automotive sector. The GALIA working group “Circular Economy: impact on automotive packaging” brings together packaging users and manufacturers.

We analyse the many existing or project regulations, in order to develop recommendations and best practices concerning technical solutions and packaging management. It concerns: the use of recycled materials, the effective recycling of end-of-life products, the environmental optimisation of technical solutions, reuse objectives, mandatory information and markings, the gradual elimination of single-use plastic accessories, taxes and eco-contributions, etc.
