Frequently Asked Questions

How does packaging waste impact the environment?

Packaging waste can harm the environment when it is not recycled. If materials like plastic and metal packaging end up in landfills or are incinerated, they can take hundreds of years to decompose, releasing toxic substances into the soil and nearby water. These pollutants can have long-term negative effects on ecosystems.

Is incinerating packaging waste a better option than recycling it?

Incinerating packaging waste requires a lot more energy and can release harmful gases like vinyl chloride and hexane into the air. This can lead to air pollution, which harms human, animal, and wildlife health.

What is plastic packaging waste?

Plastic packaging waste includes a wide range of items, from food and beverage cartons to storage containers. Any packaging made mostly or entirely of plastic is considered plastic packaging waste after it’s been used. Single-use plastic food packaging, like trays and cups, is a significant concern and is not always easy to recycle.

What is food packaging waste?

Food packaging waste encompasses any type of container used to store food, such as plastic trays for refrigerated meat, cardboard boxes for dry food, and aluminum drink cans. It includes packaging materials made primarily from plastic, paper, cardboard, and metal. Some food packaging waste is recyclable but requires cleaning to remove contaminants. However, certain types of food packaging are difficult or impossible to recycle due to their combination of materials, including ceramics, wax, glass, and more.
