CFA has signed up as a founding signatory to the UK Packaging Pact, joining 55 organisations ahead of the Pact’s launch in April 2026.
The UK Packaging Pact is the successor to the UK Plastics Pact – a world-first initiative that has since inspired a global network of Pacts operating across every continent. Building on seven years of collaboration and measurable impact, the new voluntary agreement extends the focus beyond plastics to drive system-wide change across all packaging materials, with four goals covering optimising packaging, scaling reuse and refill, unblocking barriers to circularity, and harmonising data. The ambition is to transform the UK packaging sector by 2035.
CFA’s founding signatory status builds on its existing commitments as a UK Food Waste Reduction Roadmap Early Adopter and its Chilled Sector Sustainability Aims – and on its previous membership of the UK Plastics Pact.
