The phase-out will happen in steps, starting with all new range by 2025, and running range by 2028.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\">With this phase-out, IKEA aims to reduce plastic waste and pollution, and drive the industry agenda to develop packaging solutions centered around renewable and recycled materials.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\">Packaging is a key component of the IKEA business model and an important enabler for affordability, sustainability, and safe handling. To combat plastic waste and pollution, IKEA has already significantly decreased the amount of plastic used in packaging solutions. Today, less than 10% of the total volume of packaging material used annually by IKEA consist of plastics. In closing the remaining gap by removing plastics from consumer packaging solutions, IKEA will continue the movement towards only using renewable or recycled materials.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\">\u201cPhasing out plastic in consumer packaging is the next big step on our journey to make packaging solutions more sustainable and support the overall commitment to reduce plastic pollution and develop packaging from renewable and recycled materials. The shift will happen progressively over the coming years, and mainly be focusing on paper as it is both recyclable, renewable, and widely recycled across the world\u201d says Erik Olsen, Packaging &amp; Identification Manager at IKEA of Sweden.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\">On an annual basis, IKEA spends over 1 billion Euros on approximately 920\u00a0000 tonnes of packaging material. The movement away from plastic in consumer packaging will require the engineering of new solutions, as well as close collaboration with product development teams and IKEA suppliers across the world.\u00a0Plastic packaging might remain in some parts of the IKEA food range where it is needed to secure quality and food safety standards beyond 2028, in which case it will come from renewable or recycled sources.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\">\u201cIngenuity is part of the IKEA heritage, and packaging is by no means an exception in that regard.\u00a0Shifting away from plastic in our consumer packaging solutions will doubtlessly be a challenging task in the coming years. With this movement we aim to spur packaging innovation and use our size and reach to have a positive impact on the wider industry beyond our supply chain,\u201d\u00a0says Maja Kjellberg, Packaging Development Leader at IKEA of Sweden.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>IKEA will phase out plastic from consumer packaging solutions.
