What they argued
Petcore Europe welcomes the European Commissions efforts to support the implementation of the Directive on Single-Use Plastics (Directive (EU) 2019/904, also known as SUP Directive). The SUP Directive remains the main instrument to encourage responsible consumer behaviour and to promote the transition to a circular economy with innovative and sustainable business models and products.

PET can even get recycled up to 5-6 times mechanically. Moreover, PET has an extremely low carbon footprint making it a true green packaging champion. We need therefore qualitative primary material.
