Eliminate problematic and unnecessary plastic items.
Sustainability & circular economy
Learn about CCL Design's environmental commitments to advance the circular economy, reduce waste, and develop recyclable, sustainable solutions.
Our commitment
CCL joined the New Plastics Economy Global Commitment, led by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, to drive change through active partnerships and solutions that favor circularity.
Sustainability is part of our decisions in design, material selection, manufacturing, and innovation.
Three principles
The transition to a circular economy is guided by three fundamental actions.
Eliminate problematic and unnecessary plastic items.
Ensure that necessary plastics are reusable, recyclable, or compostable.
Keep plastic materials in the economy and out of the environment.
Concrete actions
We work to reduce impacts, develop circular solutions, and support our customers in reaching their environmental goals.
By 2025, all of our customers will be able to choose labeling products and solutions that do not prevent consumer goods from being recyclable, reusable, or compostable.
Eliminate waste sent to landfill from our manufacturing processes by 2030 in North America and Europe, and cut the global level recorded at the time of the commitment by 90% by 2025. Incineration is only considered an alternative when it generates energy.
Allocate a defined percentage of research and development resources each year to sustainable, circular products.
Collaborate across the plastics value chain to make packaging practically and economically sortable and recyclable at scale.
