Impact
What sustainability means in practice
We measure our work by what matters. Less waste reaching landfills, resources being retained in the circular economy, cleaner operations that benefit the environment and the community. The gains ground with every decision we make.
All products produced by Genfac Plastics are manufactured using food grade Polypropylene (PP). PP is one of the most highly valued recyclable polymers in the world due to its ability to be used again and again for a range of different products. It is one of the few materials available that when used properly creates a circular economy leading to a greener future
Genfac was the first manufacturer in Australia to be approved by the Australian Packaging Covenant Organisation, to emboss the Australasian Recycling Logo on its products. This was a huge step forward to ensure that our products are being recycled in the market and to underpin a circular economy of our products.

CURRENT LANDSCAPE
Polypropylene in the modern economy
At Genfac we recognise that polypropylene has a valuable role to play in a productive and circular economy. Today polypropylene is used in a wide range of consumer goods and applications including computers, mobile phones, vehicles, and healthcare products to name but a few. Polypropylene is widely utilised or incorporated in products because it is durable, lightweight and affordable.
Polypropylene is often used in food packaging because it has proven to be an effective medium for protecting and preserving goods, delivering high standards of hygiene, whilst also realising numerous circular economy and environmental benefits. It uses the least amount of energy to produce compared to alternatives, significantly reducing the environmental footprint from manufacture to transportation.
Polypropylene is one of the few materials that creates a true fully closed circular economy when processed and used properly.
