Covid-19: Has the packaging industry forgotten about sustainability?

The Covid-19 coronavirus outbreak became a pandemic, coverage began shifting away from sustainability and towards the virus and its impact on the world. In April, Packaging Gateway asked industry specialists whether the Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic has put a hold on the ‘war on plastic’. A consensus from the expert opinions concluded that many businesses would still be pursuing plastic reduction strategies. Some also stated that anti-plastic movements would be put on hold as a result of being in lockdown.
