The conclusion is that the PET bottle collection rate in western Europe has risen from 58 per cent in 2016 to 63 per cent in 2018 and is projected to reach 65 per cent in 2019.
Under the SUP Directive the industry is required to reach recovery rates of 77 per cent by 2025 and 90 per cent by 2029, but the collection volume growth rate is currently falling. ICIS estimates that the volume of collected material will need to increase by seven per cent per annum if the 2029 target is to be met
