Sustainability
Our Approach to Sustainability
We believe that plastic is a valuable material when designed, used and recycled responsibly. Our sustainability strategy focuses on reducing environmental impact throughout the product lifecycle – from product development and material selection to packaging, logistics and compliance.
Product Design
Durable products with less material consumption.
Materials
Responsible materials and increased use of recycled plastic.
Packaging
Optimized packaging with a focus on reducing waste.
Compliance
Reducing emissions and ensuring regulatory compliance.
Our Climate Targets
Plast1’s climate targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). This means our emission reduction targets are aligned with the latest climate science and the goals of the Paris Agreement.
By 2030 we aim to:
✓ Reduce Scope 1 emissions by 42% (from 2023)
✓ Reduce Scope 3 emissions by 25% (from 2023)
✓ Continue sourcing 100% renewable electricity

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you use recycled plastic?
Yes. We use recycled plastic in selected products, depending on the product and its intended use. Examples include products from our Rattan, Wave and Element basket series. The recycled plastic content varies between products.
Where are your products manufactured?
All Plast1 products are manufactured at factories within the European Union.
Are your products recyclable?
Our plastic products are primarily made from polypropylene (PP), which can be recycled. However, recycling options depend on local waste collection and recycling facilities. Please follow local waste sorting instructions.
