Australian Packaging Covenant Organisation CEO Chris Foley, and head of government partnerships Peter Brisbane, will be visiting Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane and Adelaide for APCO’s next roadshow for its members. The primary focus of this year's roadshow will be on the development of APCO’s 2030 Strategy.
The APCO 2030 Strategy will be submitted to environment ministers in the middle of the year. The National Packaging Targets have focused the way companies think about the packaging they place on the market, with design for reduction and recycling now high on the agenda.
APCO says that just a year out from the target date of 2025, the rates of recycling for key materials, particularly plastics, remain low. The 2030 Strategy aims to set out a bold new vision for Australia’s packaging system that closes the gaps on the National Packaging Targets.
The roadshow is a chance to meet with the APCO team, and have your say on the strategy.
APCO will be visiting the following cities:
Adelaide: 30 April | 9:30-11:30am ACST | In. Studio Café, 268 Pirie St
Perth: 2 May | 9:30-11:30am AWST | Mercure, Irwin Room, 10 Irwin St
