In this joint letter, a coalition of businesses and NGOs support the ENVI committee's objection to the European Commission's draft Implementing Decision on the calculation of recycled content for plastic bottles under the Single Use Plastics Directive (SUPD).
Civil society organisations and responsible companies operating in relevant sectors wrote to the European Commission to urge the prioritisation of robust and transparent chain of custody models for calculating recycled content in their implementing decision establishing rules for the application of Directive (EU) 2019/904. It is necessary to rectify the decision to ensure the highest quality and transparency when determining of recycled content.
