In 2024, Erion Packaging managed 20,545 tonnes of Packaging Waste from industrial sources, around 19,530 tonnes of which were sent for recycling. To contribute to achieving the legal targets set for 2024, the proportion of Packaging Waste collected in the household sector must also be taken into account. In 2024, 4,447 tonnes of waste were collected through this channel, 3,478 tonnes of which were sent for recycling.

Thanks to Erion Packaging’s direct intervention and expansion of its membership base, the volume of waste sent for recycling more than doubled compared to the previous year. This enabled the Collective Scheme to meet the targets set out in the Decree of recognition and reinforce sustainability principles throughout the entire chain.

Erion Packaging has worked on several fronts in order to: introduce an economic incentive mechanism aimed at both waste producers and providers of collection and treatment services; consolidate and increase relations with national and international stakeholders such as institutions, citizens, and other sector collective systems; intensify dialogue with the MASE and ISPRA and; strengthen the Collective Scheme’s role within the Italian packaging system.

In October 2024, Erion Packaging signed a Memorandum of Understanding with UNIRIMA. The aim was to establish an effective model for the optimized management of paper, plastic and wood Packaging Waste from industrial and commercial premises.
