Aldi introduces ‘stricter’ recyclable packaging guidelines
Aldi has updated its International Recyclability Guidelines, in a step that it hopes will bring it closer to “achieving its recyclable packaging goal”.
In 2021 the grocer set a commitment to use an average of 30% recycled content in its packaging by 2025.
The German supermarket said the changes to its guidelines (the original version was produced in 2022) will include an Acceptance Overview for each packaging format to “simplify decision making processes in the supply chain”.
It also said it would take a “stricter” stance on what is and isn’t deemed recyclable.
The guidelines include points about design and the varying regulations and processes that apply to individual countries in the Aldi Nord and Aldi South groups (Aldi in the UK is part of the latter).
The supermarket has said it will continue to update the document based on future technological and regularity developments.
