The commitment of European Commission in the plastic fjelds

  • All

plastics packaging placed on the EU market must be reusable

  • r

recycled in a cost-efgective manner by 2030

  • Secondary plastic market

will increase fourfold since 2015 by 2030 Separate collection for hazardous household waste (by end 2022), bio- waste (by end 2023), textiles (by end 2025).

EUROPEAN STRATEGY FOR PLASTICS IN A CIRCULAR ECONOMY CIRCULAR ECONOMY PACKAGE SUPs DIRECTIVE

  • 65% of plastic packaging waste

must be recycled by 2030;

  • 70% of plastic packaging must

be recycled by 2030

Additional target: binding target to reduce landfjll to maximum of 10% of municipal waste by 2035.

  • More than half of plastics

waste generated in Europe will be recycled by 2030

  • Sorting

and recycling capacity will increase fourfold since 2015 by 2030

  • 77% of such single-use

plastic beverage bottles must be collected separately by 2025

  • 90% of such single-use

plastic beverage bottles must be collected separately by 2029

  • 25% of recycled plastics

must be included PET bottles by 2025

  • 30% of recycled plastics

must be included in PET bottles by 2030

Conclusion: Towards the Strategy on plastics for circular economy QUALITATIVE

Packaging waste: Reducing municipal waste (DRS, PAYT) Increasing awareness on plastics users (including consumers) Promoting servitization and design for recycling Recovering plastics from unseparated waste stream C&D waste: Improving selective demolition Automotive waste: Promoting the use of recycles and the design for disassembly Agricolture: Promoting biocompostable plastics and effjcient collection Investing in local recycling infrastructure

QUANTITATIVE

Monitoring industrial plastic waste Harmonizing data collection and target calculation on waste recycling (Met. 4) Introducing value_based circularity indicators
