Berry Global joins alliance to end plastic waste

Berry Global Group, Inc. has joined the Alliance to End Plastic Waste as a founding member. This organization is comprised of 27 companies and is making an initial 5 year, $1.5 billion commitment to invest in solutions to eliminate plastic waste.


“This Alliance is different from other organizations in that it spans the value chain. Brand owners, plastic resin producers, chemical companies, converters like ourselves, as well as waste management companies and recyclers, all aligned towards a common goal of how we ultimately end plastic waste,” said Tom Salmon, Chairman and chief executive officer of Berry Global Group, Inc.

In addition to the company’s efforts with the Alliance, Berry also partners with key organizations to encourage recycling as well as internal efforts to improve product recyclability and increase offerings with recycled content. As part of their efforts to end plastic waste, the company has pledged to prevent resin pellet, flake, and powder loss through their partnership with Operation Clean Sweep.

Berry is eager to collaborate to develop and deploy systems to better collect and manage post-use plastics in support of a more circular economy. As a whole, the Alliance will work with governments, multilateral institutions, companies, non-government organizations, and communities to support investments and drive progress over the next five years to end plastic waste.
