Current Challenges in Packaging and Offshore Sourcing Trends According to recent research, 51% of Australian businesses are looking to source more suppliers and customers overseas in the next 12 months, driven by rising operational costs. This includes sourcing materials such as technology, manufacturing, and logistics services. This shift to offshore sourcing is particularly pronounced among SMEs, who are looking to cut costs and maintain competitiveness amid a challenging economic climate source: (News Hub - Medianet News Hub archive, Marketing Mag). This trend has significant implications for the Australian packaging industry, as many small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) increasingly turn away from local suppliers. As a result, local manufacturers, especially those in sustainable packaging, face reduced demand, which could undermine efforts to meet national sustainability targets. https://lnkd.in/dh963NSU

Neste gets a handle on waste with Tepsa Netherlands collaboration - Neste is strengthening its chemical recycling logistics infrastructure in Europe by collaborating with Tepsa Netherlands on the storage and handling of liquefied waste plastics in Rotterdam. The partnership, focused on the implementation of advanced aggregation tanks, comes as Neste moves towards larger quantities of liquefied waste plastics as a raw material at its Porvoo refinery in Finland, and turning it into Neste RE, a recycled drop-in feedstock for production of new plastics and chemicals. The aggregation tanks will be located in the Port of Rotterdam to optimise supply chains and streamline logistics. As Neste is securing liquefied waste plastics supply […] - #chemicalrecycling #partnership #plastics #packaging #sustainablepackaging #packagingdesign

???? The year 2025 brings exciting changes and challenges for our group of companies, especially since the Council of the European Union formally adopted the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) yesterday. The Council's adoption marks the last step in the ordinary legislative procedure. All companies based inside and outside of the EU, that import packaging into the EU, will be affected by this development. ? One focus remains on single-use plastics, a waste stream that continues to impact not only Germany. Starting January 1, 2025, the appointment of an authorised representative will also become mandatory in the Czech Republic. With our partner AuthoriseMe, we are already well-prepared to support producers in meeting these new requirements. ? Moreover, authorised representatives are becoming increasingly important across Europe for other waste streams such as packaging, WEEE, and batteries as well. To meet this growing demand, AuthoriseMe will expand its services to additional European countries in 2025.?Please contact Luisa Karweina for further information. ? ?? By further expanding our entire service portfolio, our group of companies aims to contribute even more effectively to a sustainable Circular Economy in the coming year and ensure that companies fulfil their obligations under the PPWR and other legislation. #recycleme #authoriseme #circulareconomy #ppwr #2025

Der Grüne Punkt to Supply Shell with Pyrolysis Oil The German organization Green Dot Group (Der Grüne Punkt) is providing Shell Chemicals Europe with pyrolysis oil derived from post-consumer plastic packaging. This oil will be processed at Shell’s upcoming "Market Development Upgrader Unit (MDU)" at the Chemicals Park in Moerdijk, Netherlands. The upgrader, expected to start operations by the end of the year, will handle plastic waste unsuitable for mechanical recycling. With an annual capacity of 50,000 tonnes, the facility will help reduce waste incineration. Green Dot Group has been supplying Shell with this oil since March. ? Using pyrolysis for plastic waste transformation is a great avenue of valorisation for non traditionally recyclable materials. As the giant starts taking in pyrolytic oil, we hope more investments will be geared towards pyrolysis projects. #Pyrolysis #Recycling #Sustainability #PlasticRecycling https://lnkd.in/d83Hn_gk
