Sustainability

What is circular economy ?

Light, resistant and adaptable, plastic is a part of our daily lives in many places and at different times, whether in home utensils, at work, on the streets, and also in the many different packaging we use and that make our lives more convenient. However, reutilizing all that produced material is a great challenge, which becomes even more complex due to the culture of improper disposal still found in society at large. A study undertaken by the World Economic Forum, the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, and consultancy company McKinsey & Company, for example, has indicated that only 14% of plastic packaging are collected for reutilization and recycling around the world.
