Ferrero will play an active role in New Plastics Economy Initiative, working on shared R&D and innovation projects including efforts to continue driving the transition to a circular economy for plastic.
Ferrero has also joined the 4evergreen alliance that aims to boost the contribution of fibre-based packaging in a circular and sustainable economy that minimises climate and environmental impact. Through the 4evergreen alliance, Ferrero will engage and connect with industry members from across the fibre-based packaging value chain, from paper and board producers to packaging converters, brand- owners and retailers, technology and material suppliers, waste sorters and collectors.

Each product we make requires a specific packaging approach and a careful selection of materials with the dual aim of maintaining product quality and food safety while minimising the environmental carbon impact.”
