SUSTAINABILITY MEANS TAKING RESPONSIBILITY.
To boost sustainability in the use of plastics, we are involved in various initiatives dedicated to combating plastic waste, such as the global initiative Alliance to End Plastic Waste, which aims to free the environment from excess plastic and develop innovative ideas for expanding the recycling infrastructure.
We are also the exclusive sponsor of the coastal cleaning program Big Blue Ocean Cleanup, with Storopack employees lending hands-on support to beach cleanups around the world. By participating in Operation Clean Sweep, we are making an important contribution to protecting the environment against plastic pollution.
