AIP Webinar | State of Industry Update | Container Deposit Schemes

Container Deposit Schemes (CDS) are an ideal example of product stewardship programs where the brands take responsibility for the packaging they put on to market. This includes ensuring that there is an established system in place for recovery of the packaging and then the recycling scheme to support the end of life.

Container Deposit schemes for Beverage packaging provide many benefits to the country via minimising litter, keeping packaging out of the environment, providing quality feedstock for recycled content, incentivising consumers to recycle properly, supporting charities in Australia, improving recycling rates and keeping valuable resources that can be recycled out of landfill. The challenge for our country is that not all State and Territories are running the same scheme and not all materials are accepted on a national basis. There is also a need for greater consumer education programs to be developed to ensure that less packaging that should be going into CDS programs is kept out of kerbside collection, or worse, landfill.

This webinar will discuss the current state of Container Deposit Schemes in Australia, collection points, accepted materials, opportunities for regional areas and more. The speakers will also discuss how we can improve recovery rates and incentivise more households to utilise the CDS programs and be able to use platforms like RecycleMate to locate Away from Home collection points.

International conference food contact compliance

The year 2024 sets a landmark in the food contact legislation with, from one side, the strong impact represented by the proposal for a Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation, and from the other side with the intense debate on the Food Contact Plastics Regulation and its latest amendment. While plastics remains the most regulated material, increased attention is gained by other materials, such as paper, metals and others, due to their larger presence in the market. Recycling is certainly one of the most important directions of growth, and the full deployment of the Regulation (EU) 2022/1616 triggers innovative developments especially in the field of plastics other than PET.
