Sustainable packaging targets

In Australia, the introduction of the 2025 National Packaging Targets was announced in September 2018 to set a sustainable path for Australia’s recyclable waste.

There are a wide variety of options and decisions that need consideration when undertaking packaging redesign to meet the 2025 sustainability targets.  To help organisations meet these goals, the Australian federal government has tasked the Australian Packaging Covenant Organisation (APCO) to ensure that these packaging objectives are achieved. APCO is a co-regulatory, not-for-profit organisation that partners with government and industry to reduce the harmful impact of packaging on the Australian environment. APCO promotes sustainable design and recycling initiatives, waste to landfill reduction activities and circular economy projects. APCO members submit a comprehensive action plan with the steps they will take to fulfill their responsibilities, a public commitment to advancing their packaging sustainability outcomes.

For FY22, the Australian Steel Products business achieved an overall performance level of Advanced.  The Annual Report and Action Plan and further details on the 2025 national packaging targets are available on the APCO website.
