APCO's Annual Awards are back, with applications for the 2023 awards closing soon. This year, the Australian Packaging Covenant Organisation (APCO) is embarking on an exciting new journey, with significant strategic changes designed to elevate the APCO Awards to new heights. As leaders in the space, we encourage our GECA licensees to participate.

We are proud to be a founding member of the Australian, New Zealand and Pacific Island Plastics Pact - accelerating the circular economy for plastic in our region.

Australia and New Zealand’s leading online retailer, THE ICONIC, has announced that it will transition its current black parcel packaging to 100% recycled satchels. Delivering millions of orders each year, and as the first major ANZ retailer to make a commitment of this scale, the shift represents a significant milestone for THE ICONIC and its broader sustainability initiatives.

Judith Schinabeck represented GECA earlier this month at the Australian Climate Action Summit hosted by the Business Council for Sustainable Development Australia.
