To promote both maximum environmental and economic benefits from plastics, the European plastics industry supports an integrated approach to waste management for all plastic products. This means choosing the best, most appropriate mix of waste options, with the overall aim of preventing, as far as possible, plastics products from going to landfill at end-of-life.
