A global consortium of original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and their suppliers have released a new guidance document demonstrating how the industry plans to advance environmental sustainability through the automotive supply chain.
The Suppliers Partnership for the Environment (SP) is a collaborative forum that brings together global automotive manufacturers, those in the supply chain, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and other government bodies to synergize on a vision for positive environmental impact. The newest project SP members produced is the guidance document, “Sustainable Packaging Specification Recommendations for Automotive Manufacturing Operations.”
The recommendations in the report discuss “opportunities to minimize automotive packaging waste and address potential barriers to recyclability in the design phase, based on proven best practices that have been implemented by industry environmental sustainability leaders.”
