Elipso and IK welcome the Alliance to End Plastic Waste

The German Industrial Association for Plastic Packaging (IK) and its French partner association Elipso have welcomed the Alliance to End Plastic Waste as an important step in fighting marine litter.

While the two associations think that the measures taken in Europe for the reduction of plastic waste like the Single Use Plastics Directive are of limited effectiveness, Elipso and IK see much more potential in the initiative of the global alliance to control waste streams for the benefit of the environment.
