Reusable packaging is a crucial part of the circular economy for plastics, offering a promising solution to eliminate waste, tackle plastic pollution and provide significant business advantages.

Reusable packaging presents a sustainable alternative to single-use packaging. Various innovative materials and systems are developed to enhance sustainability in packaging.

Refillable and reusable packaging sales are forecast to increase by a CAGR of 4.5% to 2029 and developing end uses are growing nearly four times faster than mature end uses. The global reusable and refillable packaging market is expected to grow by over $7 billion to 2029.

This online webinar will provide insights into topics including current trends and developments in refill & reuse packaging, PPWR, LCA studies of reuse, reusability by design, implementation of reuse models and take-back systems, case studies, standards, investment and funding, innovation and harmonisation.

Attendees will learn how developments in technology, automation, policy, and metrics are making reusable packaging an essential component for the future of packaging.
