Australian Packaging Covenant Organisation

Our vision is a packaging value chain that collaborates to keep packaging materials out of landfill and retains the maximum value of the materials, energy and labour within the local economy.

Recycled Content Program

Australia is committed to achieving a Target of an average of 50% recycled content across all packaging and transitioning to a circular economy. Ensuring packaging is successfully recovered and used again as recycled content, at its highest potential value for as long as possible, is our collective goal.
