We want to work with Government, local councils, consumers and NGOs to develop a programme to minimise overall environmental impact by:

  • protecting public health and safety
  • minimising use of materials and energy throughout the entire chain
  • reducing food wastage and damaged goods
  • improving transport systems to minimise traffic pollution and congestion
  • reducing quantities of used packaging going for final disposal.

We need packaging because it helps us to get goods from the farm or factory to where they are used.  As such, packaging is one part of the system that supplies goods and it cannot be considered in isolation from either the system or its contents.
