Billerud’s European production of packaging materials is the first to be third-party assessed as 100% recyclable, according to EU legislation proposed for 2030. This reinforces Billerud as a world leader in sustainable packaging.
The standards proposed by the coming Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) are high, but Billerud has been meeting high standards for many years. This is why we reached the goal seven years in advance and are the first in the world to do so. Whatever type of 100% recyclable paper or packaging material you need, contact our team to achieve your sustainability goals. Together, we will customize a solution with tomorrow in mind!
