At Sixto Packaging we want to be part of the genuine solution, to follow the science, and not be just another green washing blow horn. Becoming a sponsor of the Consortium for Waste Circularity fits our family values. We as a society, cannot continue to bury trash in landfills, burn it, or worse, throw it into our oceans. Something must change. And although we support reducing and recycling efforts, supporting CWC to create circularity for all waste is the overarching goal Sixto Packaging believes is needed to create a viable and truly sustainable circular economy. Transforming waste into eco-methanol that can produce virgin plastic again is the future of waste management and the packaging industry. CWC brings several pieces of this puzzle together. I strongly urge everyone to learn more at: www.wastecircularity.org

Continuing to pile our refuse into heaps at landfills only exacerbates our waste problem. Advanced recycling waste-to-syngas technology has the potential to fundamentally transform waste handling.

While recycling has been the cornerstone of corporate sustainability efforts for years, a recent report by Surfrider Foundation Europe underscores the urgent need for businesses to move beyond mere recycling efforts, recognise its limitations, and look toward a more effective solution: Deplastification. 🔍 Why Recycling Isn't Enough Limited Impact: Despite increased investments in recycling infrastructure, only a tiny fraction of plastics are actually recycled. False Solutions: Non-compostable bioplastics and emotional storytelling around "green" products can mislead consumers and fail to address the root problem. Resource Drain: Relying solely on recycling diverts critical investment resources that could be used for more effective solutions. 🌿 The Path to Deplastification Comprehensive Planning: Develop a deplastification pathway with specific, enforceable commitments to actively reduce plastic usage in your operations. R&D Focus: Invest in research and development aimed at minimising plastic use in product design, packaging, and logistics. Transparency: Be transparent about your plastic usage. Disclose an annual verified assessment covering all aspects of your business operations related to plastic. Regulatory Support: Proactively support ambitious plastic reduction regulations. This not only helps the environment but also levels the playing field in your industry. Public Accountability: Make your commitments and progress public. This builds trust and holds your organisation accountable to its goals. Phantm's three-step A-R-T process (Asses > Reduce > Transition) is designed to help companies understand, reduce, and ultimately eliminate their plastic footprint. We're here to help your business take its first steps on the pathway to plastic-free. #PlasticFree #CircularEconomy #Deplastification

What is a "Closed Loop Recycling" System? ♻ Products go through a cycle where they are used, recycled, and made into a new product, all without ever reaching the dreaded landfill. In this way, they stay in the system. This process of “closing the loop” is key to a truly circular economy, where waste is minimised and resources are maximised. To learn more about closing the loop and what it means for the packaging industry, check out our latest blog post! 🌱 https://lnkd.in/eA5htsjr #closedlooprecycling #reducereucerecycle #sustainablesolutions #circulareconomy 🌍

After reading this article https://lnkd.in/dv6bbEW3, herein my reflections: recycling is easier and fuels several businesses, while reducing waste can compromise some businesses and their profit... that's the hard truth... but what about "reuse"? I'm sure that new businesses can be created, we need creativity and a new culture around! Or rather...more than a new culture, we need to go back to a few decades ago...let's ask our grandparents how they were used to REUSE. Thoughts? #sustainablebusinessstrategies #reuserevolution

Excellent article from Grist. The #circulareconomy is far too often equated with simply recycling. Reduction of consumption is an overlooked strategy and integral part of true #circularity. https://lnkd.in/gQYTR_Ty

Recycling is an opportunity to reframe what we once viewed as waste, as a means to preserve the Earth’s natural resources and combat climate change. In fact, it saves over 700 million tonnes in CO2 emissions each year! But more needs to be done to curb unnecessary waste - a recent study found that microplastic contamination in blood vessels poses a very significant health risk and the Ellen MacArthur Foundation predicts that by 2050 our oceans are expected to have more plastic than fish in them. That’s why this Global Recycling Day we're celebrating the importance of recycling in securing the future of our planet.
