EPPA aims to find concrete solutions to increase recycling and to reduce carbon emissions of food and food service packaging without compromising food safety and human health protection. EPPA will also work with European policymakers to support these common priorities. • Paper is a natural and renewable material and it is derived from sustainably managed forests that play an important role in mitigating climate change by absorbing carbon from the atmosphere through reforestation. • Paper and fibre-based food packaging are recyclable and are recycled.
