RT EPPA
We fully agree with @employers_EESC: reuse & refill in situations such as the foodservice sector is simply not the best option.
Single-use #paperpackaging prevents the spread of foodborne illnesses by stopping external cross-contamination occurring within circular reuse systems.

🤔Why?
▶️Increased logistics
▶️Long transport distances compared to local collection and recycling
▶️Cleaning refillable bottles increases energy consumption and emission

RT @EPPA_EU: Antonio d'Amato of @sedapackaging and @EPPA_EU President asks policymakers to consider the real impact on environment - CO2 and #water & need to work on sound scientific basis. LCAs show that #paperpackaging has less #environmental impact that reusables. #NoSilverBullet
