Volvo, the Swedish vehicle manufacturer, has announced a target to use 25% recycled plastic in all new vehicles it produces by 2025.
The news follows the firm’s recent commitment to ban single-use plastics in its premises and events by the end of 2019.
“We already work with some great, forward-thinking suppliers when it comes to sustainability; however, we do need increased availability of recycled plastics if we are to make our ambition a reality,” stated Martina Buchhauser, Senior Vice President of Global Procurement at Volvo Cars.
