Empauer Sustainability Survey 2018

In April the 2018 Empauer sustainability survey findings were published. Over 1000 professionals from all over the world participated. The survey highlights that business will act on sustainability issues if either forced or compelled to by legislation or, if financial benefits are identified and cost savings are realised.
While legislators around the world move against plastics and regulate to tackle waste the survey shows industry isn’t prioritizing recycling or designing for end of life. Within packaging consumer demand is regarded as the least important driver of sustainability, adhering to regulations is more important, while the biggest barrier was lack of support from senior management.
