What is reverse logistics and how it drives circularity

Post-consumer waste packaging refers to packaging materials discarded after the consumer has used the product. This includes items such as bottles, toilet paper rolls, and empty yoghurt containers that are disposed of once their purpose has been fulfilled.

Reverse logistics for post-consumer packaging uses innovative approaches to collecting, sorting, recycling, and reusing these packaging materials, offering a more efficient and eco-friendly alternative to traditional disposal methods throughout the materials’ life cycle.
