At VANA, it's important that we support projects that contribute to the circular economy and make demands for recycling standards. That's why we both take part in projects and advocate for knowledge sharing.

Projects

The CRISP project
The CRISP Project (Circular Recycling Innovation for Sustainable Packaging) aims to contribute to the implementation of a circular plastic economy in Denmark and set new standards for recycling food packaging internationally.

  • annual recycling of more than 30,000 tons of Danish plastic waste
  • annual savings of more than 44,200 tons of oil equivalents
  • 92% reduction compared to the production of virgin plastic
