    ESTIMATED TONNES OF CO2 SAVINGS THROUGH RETURNABLE TRANSPORT PACKAGING

      ESTIMATED TONNES OF CO2 SAVINGS THROUGH RETURNABLE TRANSPORT PACKAGING

      The way forward will be REUSABLE

      We took a closer look at the representations of the FEFCO and compared them with the results of Fraunhofer studies. Conclusion: reusable trays made of plastic clearly offer both economic and ecological advantages compared to disposable boxes on cardboard. When considering the scientific study situation holistically, assertions from the FEFCO presentation can either be classified as implausible or in some cases even refuted.

      foundation

      Die Stiftung Initiative Mehrweg (SIM), based in Berlin, was established in 1996 under German civil law as a legally responsible foundation.

      It aims to provide sustainable support for the conservation of natural resources and the protection of the environment. The foundation is committed to creating the conditions to sustainably stabilise and increase the amount of reusable packaging in all economic sectors.

      In cooperation with environmental and trade associations including reuse-oriented companies, individual key topics are (scientifically) examined in greater depth each year and demands for the promotion of reusability are introduced into the environmental policy dialogue.
