Global survey reveals FMCG companies' contribution to plastic pollution crisis
- Single-use packaging is the main delivery system used by all of the FMCG companies, with no signs of changing.
- None of the surveyed FMCG companies have comprehensive strategies that include commitments to move away from single-use plastic.
- Most FMCG companies are actually increasing the amount of single-use plastic packaging and waste they produce.
- Most FMCG companies know or disclose little about the amount of their packaging that is recycled and even less about the destination of their plastic waste after consumption.
- Despite their significant plastic footprint, solutions being explored by businesses are primarily related to addressing recyclability or recycling, not reducing or creating new delivery systems.
- There is a lack of transparency in the sector and few FMCG companies are willing to disclose important data about their plastic use.
