In the context of the implementation of the Circular Economy Action Plan, FoodDrinkEurope would like to provide its views and recommendations for an ambitious implementation of the European Strategy for Plastics in a Circular Economy, made public in January 2018.

FoodDrinkEurope represents the interests of Europe’s food and drink industry. Food and drink manufacturers’ are committed to be part of the solution to the challenges of moving towards a low carbon society.

Climate change affects the food and drink sector, both in terms of production and price stability, of the agricultural raw materials it transforms. Food production will come under increased pressure in the future. Europe’s agri-food sector is actively working to try to mitigate and adapt to climate change through actions such as investing in low-carbon technologies and proactively engaging with our consumers and partners along the supply chain’.
