Provide PET bottle design guidelines for recycling |
|
Evaluate PET bottle packaging solutions and technologies |
|
Facilitate understanding of the impact of new PET bottle innovation on recycling processes |
The guidelines aim to strike a balance between resource efficiency, the need for innovation and shelf differentiation, and recycling practices in Europe.
EPBP has developed full-scale testing protocols. In parallel EPBP has developed a series of quick and low-cost assessment techniques to provide producers with a rapid evaluation of the recyclability of their packaging solutions. These quick tests help industry during the R&D phase where adjustments can still be made to mitigate recycling challenges.
The EPBP Design Guidelines and test protocols are a point of reference for the CEN (European Committee for Standardization) Standardization project.
The recent braking news is that EPBP has been accepted as a Liaison Organization by CEN
As Liaison Organization EPBP will contribute to the work identified by CEN Technical Committee(s)/Body(ies) by providing added-value expertise and high-quality contributions through direct and active participation of its representatives in CEN meetings.
This assignment is a recognition of EPBP expertise in the PET Value Chain and our, more than 17years contribution to Industry towards recyclability and circularity.
