What they argued
REPLY TO THE CONSULTATION ON THE INCEPTION STUDY ON ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORMANCE OF PRODUCTS AND BUSINESSES – SUBSTANTIATING GREEN CLAIMS ACE contribution to the consultation on the inception impact assessment ACE acknowledges the fact that existing claims are not always reliable and in some cases are greenwashing the reality.
The ongoing review of the Single-Use Plastics Directive (SUPD) provides a timely opportunity to assess its implementation and effectiveness in reducing single-use plastics while ensuring regulatory consistency across the EU Single Market. However, it is appropriate to assess the extent to which the current measures of the Directive contribute to the reduction of littering.
The Food and Beverage Carton Alliance (FBCA) welcomes the opportunity to contribute to the EU Commissions public request for feedback on the Draft Implementing Act that aims to establish criteria to determine when plastic waste ceases to be waste.
