The company aims to help protect the planet and ensure its business remains resilient by evolving its packaging strategy, adopting alternative materials, and improving waste management practices.<\/p>\n<p>By the end of 2023, McDonald\u2019s had reached 86.7% of its goal to source 100% of its primary packaging from renewable, recycled, or certified materials. Since 2018, the company has also reduced the use of virgin fossil fuel-based plastic in its Happy Meal toys by 63.7%. In addition, 88.3% of McDonald\u2019s restaurants in markets with advanced recycling infrastructure offered customers the opportunity to recycle or compost packaging items during 2023.<\/p>\n<p>McDonald\u2019s has been making strides to address waste-related challenges, particularly focusing on improving recycling infrastructure. The company continues to explore opportunities for using reusables in its restaurants, as well as collaborating with various stakeholders to find local and global solutions. The company is targeting a global shift towards the use of 100% renewable, recycled, or certified packaging by 2025. Efforts are being made to make it easier for customers to recycle packaging in restaurants, particularly where the infrastructure exists. McDonald\u2019s is also working with waste management companies and suppliers to optimise packaging for recycling. Clear on-pack labelling is another key initiative aimed at helping customers make informed recycling choices.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.packaging-gateway.com\/news\/mcdonalds-targets-waste-reduction-new-packaging-strategy\/\">Packaging Gateway<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/2-591\/\">McDonald\u2019s targets waste reduction with new packaging strategy<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[575,6575,829,6938],"class_list":["post-133712","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-mcdonalds","tag-packaging","tag-waste-reduction"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/133712","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=133712"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/133712\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=133712"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=133712"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=133712"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
