SAP Responsible Design and Production Helps Companies Manage Plastic Taxes in a Fragmented Environment

Plastic is everywhere – it’s practical, necessary, and indestructible. It’s so embedded in our daily lives that we don’t even see it. From plastic-wrapped produce in supermarkets to containers for creams, lotions, pills, and medicine, most of it is used only once and then discarded into landfills, or worse.

Despite its usefulness and in alignment with the aims of organizations such as the Ellen MacArthur Foundation and the World Economic Forum, governments, businesses, and civil society are cooperating on ways to curb the waste and pollution it causes.
