US Plastics Pact

The U.S. Plastics Pact is a non-profit organization based in Walpole, New Hampshire. With a small team of 10 employees, the organization focuses its efforts on achieving a circular economy for plastics. The U.S. Plastics Pact generates revenue of $2.5 million annually. The U.S. Plastics Pact works to bring together diverse stakeholders, including businesses, government agencies, non-governmental organizations, researchers, and other interested parties. Their collaboration is guided by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s New Plastics Economy Initiative, aiming to create a system where plastic waste is eliminated. The U.S. Plastics Pact advocates for a three-pronged approach to achieve this vision: reducing unnecessary plastic usage, designing products for reusability, recyclability, or compostability, and ensuring that all plastic items remain in the economic cycle, preventing them from entering the environment.
