Mother Dairy's "Plastic Waste Neutral" Plan
NDTV
Becoming plastic waste neutral means that the company will collect, recycle/co-process the same amount of plastic waste which is used in its product packaging in a year.
Mother Dairy Fruit & Vegetable Pvt Ltd said on Thursday it has set a target to recycle over 7,000 million tonnes (MT) of post-consumer used plastic waste in the current fiscal and would become 'plastic waste neutral' company by the financial year 2023-24.
Becoming plastic waste neutral means that the company will collect, recycle/co-process the same amount of plastic waste which is used in its product packaging in a year.
Mother Dairy began its plastic waste collection and recycling/co-processing initiative in Maharashtra in FY2018-19 under the Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) programme and scaled up the initiative on a pan-India level for Multi-Layered Plastic Waste (MLP) in FY2019-20, in line with the Plastic Waste Management (PWM) Rules 2018 as amended.
The Company has been closely working with its suppliers and leading Waste Management Agencies (WMA) for the implementation of the National EPR framework, Mother Dairy said in a statement.
