Steel for Packaging Update
Issue #30, February 2023

Welcome!

We start this year with an introduction to our new President, an overview of the new PPWR proposal, and an explanation of why recycling rates for all materials will start to look a little different this year. Don’t miss our animated explainer.

We also consider why food packed in steel remains a trusted solution in uncertain times.

Stay safe, healthy in 2023!
