🌍 Today, EXPRA participated in the Close The Glass Loop Workshop, a collaborative effort to optimize #closed-loop #glass #recycling. It was inspiring to witness #diverse #countries coming together to share experiences in glass collection and recycling, contributing to #shaping a #collective #roadmap. The goal of Close the Glass Loop is to achieve a #90% collection rate for recycling glass packaging in the #EU by #2030, ensuring #high-quality #recovered #material for the manufacturing of new glass packaging containers. 🗣️ Our Managing Director at EXPRA, Joachim Quoden, provided a comprehensive overview of the political and legislative context for packaging. Following that, Vanessa Chesnot (Head of Public Affairs & Product Policy, FEVE – the European Container Glass Federation) and Baudouin Ska (Vice-President, FERVER) presented the draft roadmap to optimize closed-loop glass recycling. 🙌 Big thanks to Jean-Paul Judson for organizing such a fantastic workshop! 🤝 Let's work together towards a #sustainable #future, where closed-loop glass recycling becomes a cornerstone in our commitment to a #circular #economy! 🔄🔍 #CloseTheGlassLoop #GlassRecycling #CircularEconomy #Sustainability #RecyclingInitiatives
