印度斯坦联合利华一直致力于saf有限e recovery and recycling of over 1 lakh tons of plastic through an EPR programme covering more than 100 towns across India. 2021 onwards it will collect and process more plastic packaging waste than the plastic in packaging used by it. The Company will enable processing of over 1 lakh tons of post-consumer plastic waste through collection from all of the states and Union Territories.
Since 2018, HUL has facilitated environmentally safe disposal of more than 1.2 lakh tons of post-consumer-use plastic waste. In 2020, despite the Covid pandemic, the Company stepped up its efforts in the reduction of plastic waste. This has been made possible through investment and partnerships to improve the waste management infrastructure in over 100 towns across India.
HUL has partnered with various organisations for the collection of plastic waste including Saahas, Carpe, Recykal, Planet Savers, RaddiConnect, Geoycle, Ramky Enviro. Through its partners and with support from Municipal Corporations, the Company has reached out to housing societies and commercial establishments to improve the collection of plastic waste.
该公司还与联合国发展计划（UNDP）和国际组织Xynteo合作。通过这些合作伙伴关系，在孟买建立了物质恢复设施，以证明包容性端到端废物管理解决方案的可行性。除此之外，马哈拉施特拉邦，HUL和Xynteo的教育部还推出了一项数字学校课程，重点是隔离，收集和安全处理废物的重要性。去年，该计划在马哈拉施特拉邦（Maharashtra）到达了近十万名儿童，目前正在全州进行扩展。
HUL董事长兼董事总经理Sanjiv Mehta说：“我们的愿景是主要利益相关者共同努力确保塑料留在经济和环境外的愿景。作为一家负责任的公司，我们致力于发挥自己的作用。我们认为这是一个集体责任，每个利益相关者都需要在管理塑料废物方面发挥积极作用，以实现Swachh Bharat Abhiyan的愿景。”
HUL供应链执行董事Willem Uijen解释说：“这与我们对循环经济所做的承诺一致。我们已经开始实施针对塑料废物管理的拟议扩展生产者责任（EPR）框架。HUL还开发了一个合作伙伴的生态系统，使塑料包装浪费的收集和安全处理。现在，我们已经扩大了与我们以前认为的可能性相比，比总塑料足迹收集更多的塑料包装浪费。”
Natasha Zarine, CEO of CARPE (Centre for Applied Research and People’s Engagement) said, “With HUL's support we have carried out disposal of large quantities of plastic waste since 2018 in a safe and environment friendly manner. The partnership has also helped positively impact the lives of workers involved in waste collection. HUL has been the pioneer in implementing EPR in India and their support has helped our start-up grow and expand into new territories. This helped us to work towards our national ambition of Swachh Bharat”.
