Lidl Suisse signs and co-finances the pact “Closing the loop for plastic packaging and beverage cartons”. This inter-professional association pursues the objective of establishing a circular economy for plastic packaging and beverage cartons in Switzerland by 2025. As part of its sustainable development strategy, Lidl Suisse has for years been very active in the field of recycling and packaging, in particular by setting itself the objective of systematically minimising the share of packaging in its products. Thus, the use of plastic for its own-brand products is to be reduced by 20% by 2025, given that all packaging must be designed to be as recyclable as possible, and that at least 25% recycled material must be used on average in its own-brand plastic packaging. Lidl Suisse also wishes to take part in cross-sector solutions and therefore co-finances the project “Closing the loop for plastic packaging and beverage cartons”.
