The Canada Plastics Pact’s leadership in establishing voluntary benchmarks for recycled content highlights the need for clear guidance on effectively integrating post-consumer recycled (PCR) content in plastic packaging. This approach aligns with global industry efforts and complements Canadian federal policies on recycled content standards.
Key stakeholders—brand owners, producers, and manufacturers—play a critical role in shaping the market by adjusting procurement policies and packaging designs to incorporate higher levels of recycled content. Their leadership drives the investments and infrastructure needed to accelerate the transition toward circular plastic packaging.
