Plastic is very valuable. It helps us get our products to consumers safely and efficiently. It’s often the lowest carbon footprint option compared to other materials. Yet far too much plastic ends up in our environment. Global research has shown the flow of plastic into the ocean each year could triple by 2040. This has to stop.

Our approach to products and packaging is changing. Science tells us that most of the solutions we need exist today, but we need to fix the broken plastic system to protect our oceans and marine ecosystems. We need new ways for consumers to easily access everyday products with less plastic waste. We want to keep plastic in use for as long as possible in a circular loop system by collecting, processing and repeatedly reusing it.
