The National Packaging Covenant

The National Packaging Covenant is an agreement between governments and industry to make packaging safe for our environment, reduce the amount of packaging going to landfill, and find ways to use the waste packaging material that is collected every week from our homes.

To make sure that everyone involved in the packaging supply chain takes responsibility for their part of the packaging cycle, the businesses signing the agreement include:

• Companies that supply the raw materials for packaging;
  
• Companies that make the packaging from these raw materials;
  
• Companies that use this packaging in their products; and
  
• Companies that sell these products and packaging.

A part of the National Packaging Covenant is a $34.9 million fund for people to research how to make our kerbside recycling systems better. This fund also helps businesses find markets for recycled materials.
