Home Plant Based Alternative Materials To Plastic Packaging An Evolution Or A Revolution 2 Plant based alternative materials to plastic packaging: An evolution or a revolution?

Plastic packaging, by generating more than 120 million tonnes of waste per year, is a primary contributor to the global plastic waste issue. With ever-growing pressure from regulators and the increasing voice of conscious consumers, the packaging industry is in the midst of realigning its focus towards sustainability and at the same time delivering on performance.
