Design for Recycled Content Guide

The Sustainable Packaging Coalition has created a guide to assist professionals in understanding the key considerations and best practices for incorporating recycled content in packaging, aiming to drive demand for recycled materials. The Guide shares insights from industry experts across the packaging supply chain, including material manufacturers, packaging converters, brand owners, and retailers, shedding light on the opportunities and challenges associated with using recycled content. 

While the Guide focuses specifically on packaging, it acknowledges the broader role of non-packaging end markets in the circular economy. The development of the Guide involved interviews conducted in 2018 with various stakeholders in the packaging industry, supplemented by the collective knowledge, research, and experiences of the Sustainable Packaging Coalition staff.
