The study was conducted by the Swedish RISE research institutes and shows that the Efforts and investments by industry to reduce CO2<\/sub>-footprint and to improve the environmental performance of the industry<\/strong>. This emphasises how the industry is playing a leading role in the recycling of packaging through collaboration.\u00a0<\/p>

The most important findings of the study are, among others, that the industry is reducing CO2<\/sub>-footprint by 24 per cent since 2018. The average carbon footprint of cartons is now 249 kgCO2<\/sub>e from cradle to grave per tonne of carton<\/strong>. The CO2<\/sub>-footprint from cradle to grave is now only 148 kgCO2<\/sub>e per tonne of cartons.<\/p>
