SGS, the world’s leading testing, inspection and certification company, has published a Consumer Compact article looking at the challenges for businesses wishing to achieve sustainability in plastics.
Plastic pollution is now a major issue for society and the planet. Our reliance on plastic has created a global problem, with levels of waste expected to double or even triple by 2060. Therefore, according to a 2022 OECD publication, a “business-as-usual outlook is unsustainable.”
SGS’s Consumer Compact article looks at the challenges surrounding plastic sustainability, the drivers for change and the ways businesses can transition to a more effective and sustainable way of working.
