A belief there's hope to solving New Zealand's plastic waste problem.
Plastics New Zealand has released two reports with strategies for minimising plastic waste in the construction sector and in consumer, medical and seafood packaging.
Five thousand tonnes of polystyrene packaging enters the supply chain every year, with 77% going to landfill.
