Material flow analysis and sustainability of the Italian plastic packaging management

Mariarosaria Lombardi et al.

Summary: The paper aims to measure the level of circular economy in Italian plastic packaging management in 2017 using material flow analysis, and compare the results with the other EU-28 countries. Italy has a good recycling rate, but there is still room for improvement, while other countries also face different challenges and opportunities.
