Eastman, an American specialty materials company that produces consumer products, has joined 4evergreen, a cross-industry alliance that focuses on the circularity of fibre-based packaging to contribute to a climate-neutral, sustainable society. The goal of the alliance is to raise the overall recycling rate of fibre-based packaging to 90 per cent by 2030.

This is the latest step Eastman has taken in driving sustainable packaging solutions at every step of the value chain, whether sharing its expertise, gaining insights on challenges faced by the industry, or developing new and improved coatings and ink products to address those needs, the company said in a media release.

“We are pleased to join the 4evergreen alliance, as we believe that a collaboration across the value chain will play a crucial role in our shift toward a circular economy. Together, we can drive more sustainable packaging innovations and improve the circularity of fibre-based packaging,” Leslie Montgomery, Eastman’s segment marketing manager for packaging, coatings, and inks, said.
