Did you know that canned foods have a shelf life of 3 to 5 five years? This plays a crucial role in reducing food loss and waste, both on farms and in households. That’s what we call CANtastic™! #Sustainability #ReducingFoodWaste #CannedFood #MetalPackaging #Recycling

Did you know that steel packaging has the UK’s highest packaging recycling rate at 78.3%? (Defra) Yet the proposed EPR base fees result in higher costs for steel food cans compared to lighter packaging materials which are harder to recycle and have lower recycling rates.

The packaging EPR base fees are a step in the right direction but the unique role of metal packaging in the circular economy remains undervalued. MPMA’s Jason Galley responds to the publication of the final version of the base fees. #CircularEconomy #EPR #pEPR #MetalPackaging
