Aiming to help the plastic packaging industry align with the European Strategy for Plastics in a Circular Economy, Plastics Recyclers Europe (PRE), the European Federation of Plastics Regenerative Enterprises, launched the RecyClass Platform, a program to support companies interested in increasing recyclability of their plastic packaging.

The basis is the Recyclass packaging recyclability evaluation system, linked to a tool that allows online assessment of the environmental performance of each specific plastic packaging solution. At the end of the procedure, the packaging is classified according to a scale that goes from “A” (easily recyclable) to “F”, when the only option is waste-to-energy.

The RecyClass Platform features:

• Costumer service support via email to all users’ questions regarding recyclability of your packaging.
• Official RecyClass Certification and label of packaging products.
• Analysis and assessment of your recycling policy.
• Design of a customized training course on site.
• Seat at the Advisory Board of RecyClass.
• Display of your company logo in a dedicated section of the RecyClass website.
