Plastics Sector

We work with producers, converters, distributors and retailers in the plastics supply chain, from large-scale retail to logistics hubs, from industrial packaging to consumer products.

From single-use to continuous reuse

The environmental burden of plastic

25M

Tonnes of plastic waste

Generated in Europe every year, 80% of which ends up in the sea as marine litter

80-87%

A perceived emergency

Of Europeans are concerned about the environmental impact of plastic

5%

Recovered plastic

Only this share of new plastic comes from recovered material

European regulatory constraints

SUP Directive

2019/904

Reduction of single-use items by 2026 and a ban on the most polluting plastic products

Sostituzione

obbligatoria

Mandatory replacement with reusable and compostable alternatives

Binding targets

system-wide

Binding European targets for the reuse, recycling and recovery of materials

We promote the recovery and reuse of plastic

We replace the "make, use, dispose" model with closed loops where polymers and packaging
retain economic and technical value, and we introduce your company into an ecosystem where production scraps, post-consumer polymers and used packaging become regenerated material.

1

Identifying and eliminating operational inefficiencies in logistics flows

2

Activating strategic synergies and coordinating information flows along the entire value chain

3

Replacing virgin materials with bio-based materials and secondary raw materials with traceability certifications

4

Developing reverse logistics models and dedicated infrastructure for the collection, regeneration and recycling of end-of-life materials

5

Rigorous quantification of environmental performance through Life Cycle Assessment to scientifically validate the benefits of circular solutions

Designing more efficient systems for plastic

From Tetra Pak to industrial pallet

Plastic-aluminium residues become recycled pallets: sturdy, reusable, zero waste.

From linear to circular company

Integrated strategic plan: impact mapping, clear objectives, transparent reporting.

From carbon intensive to carbon neutral

Comprehensive decarbonisation strategy: 40% emissions reduction, green positioning.

We regenerate plastic

For us at Circularity, regenerating plastic means reducing impacts and creating value. Post-consumer polymers are not waste, but resources for new production cycles.

We design packaging for recyclability (Design for Recycling)

We activate collection and sorting chains for post-consumer polymers

We transform recovered plastics into new products and packaging

We integrate certified recycled content into production

We measure environmental and economic impacts with verifiable metrics
