What makes 100% recyclability important to the Circular Economy?   

• Recycling is vital to transition to the Circular Economy and everyone can help – from packaging producers and brand owners to consumers.
• The first principle of the Circular Economy is to eliminate waste and pollution – recycling makes used packaging into a resource.
• The second principle of the Circular Economy is to keep materials in use – the fibers in our packages can be recycled up to 25 times to create new paper products.
