Amcor

Flexible, rigid and specialty packaging

Amcor reports 218,000 metric tons of recycled plastic used in FY25 and 72% of packaging production by weight designed for recyclability. Its FY25 release also reports recycle-ready options for 96% of the flexible packaging portfolio. These are company progress measures, not proof of an open PCR allocation or a customer-qualified package.

218,000 t PCR plastic used in FY25

Open Plant, grade and buyer evidence

Screening No commercial claim

As of September 18, 2026

• Post-consumer recycled resin
• Paper-based and recycle-ready flexible structures

Outputs and residuals to resolve

• Customer packaging meeting barrier and regulatory needs
• End-of-life pathways dependent on local collection and sorting

First decision: Food-contact status, melt flow, color, barrier, seal and customer acceptance.

Amcor reports reaching 10% PCR plastic use in FY25, equal to 218,000 metric tons, and describes recycle-ready flexible formats.

What remains unproven

Public reporting does not identify a customer specification, resin grade, food-contact approval, converter line or contracted PCR supply.

Decision boundary

The public record supports one bounded next move: Food-contact status, melt flow, color, barrier, seal and customer acceptance. It does not establish a buyer, commercial approval or supply agreement.

This is a public screening map. It separates company-disclosed flows from open qualification work. It does not convert a destination into a buyer or an announced ambition into operating capacity.

PCR packaging qualification

Choose one package format where resin quality and end-market claims can be tested together.

Next evidence: Food-contact status, melt flow, color, barrier, seal and customer acceptance.

Qualification path

Separate public progress from an approved material specification.

Next evidence: Named product, technical owner and test plan.

Commercial boundary

Do not infer buyer demand from a corporate target.

Next evidence: Customer approval, price and supply commitment.

Source hierarchy: filings and company disclosures first. The brief states what those sources support and leaves the unresolved plant, grade, permit, buyer and mass-balance questions explicit.

The next useful working session starts with: Food-contact status, melt flow, color, barrier, seal and customer acceptance.
