The food and beverage market has taken on many challenges within this capacity, with the aim of conciliating a need for preserving the integrity and nutritional characteristics in packaged goods throughout their required shelf life, and at the same time allowing full circularity of the packaging used to distribute such goods into the market. Scenarios for 2030 predict that of the 1300kt of PET material coming from PET bottles collected from the market yearly, between 20 to 30% will be colored bottles;2 these will enter their respective sorting and collection systems to ultimately produce rPET material that will be fed as new raw material for non-food PET applications. Zero Waste Europe Avient is committed to playing its part in this recyclability journey and helping achieve such ambitious targets by providing solutions that will allow the market to fully achieve these goals.
