WINNIPEG, MANITOBA, July 8th, 2020
As part of Winpak’s mission and focus on
Sustainability, our employees and industry partners are fully engaged in
creating innovative approaches to positively impact the economic, social and
environmental aspects of our products and services.
Winpak produces essential rigid and
flexible packaging into a variety of food, beverage and healthcare markets.
Polypropylene (PP) is one of the key raw materials for many packaging
innovations supplied by Winpak and we strongly support an advanced circular
economy for PP packaging to increase access to post consumer recycled (PCR)
polypropylene resins. That is why Winpak is pleased to be part of the newly
launched Polypropylene Recycling Coalition in conjunction with The Recycling
Partnership and value chain partners.
The Coalition is an industry-wide
collaboration aimed at improvements to polypropylene recycling to increase
access, recovery and end markets usage.
“Winpak is proud to be a founding member of
the Coalition,” states Phillip Crowder, Director, Corporate
Sustainability. “Being part of this
group that represents all facets of the value chain including resin suppliers,
converters, key brands, retailers, recyclers, and industry associations is both
exciting and hopeful.”
