Our context
Evertis operates in an uncertain economic and geopolitical environment, facing challenges such as rising energy prices, fossil energy dependence, humanitarian crises, and increasing demands from clients and consumers for sustainability and wellbeing. Despite progress in recycling rates, there’s a global plastics waste management problem, with varying PET recycling schemes across countries. Low collection rates and increasing PET flake end-users have led to scarcity in post-consumer recycled material (PCR). Evertis is addressing this by increasing utilisation of recycled content from the PET tray loop and enhancing PET tray recyclability. The industry is moving towards a circular economy through investments in improving recycling infrastructure and sorting technology and, collective action on consumer education, policy, and regulations, with notable policy changes in regions like the EU and the USA. Chemical depolymerisation technologies hold potential for improving PET circularity.
