About us

Advanced Packaging Association (APA) AISBL is a non-profit organisation that will shape the future of the flexible packaging value chain through fact-based sustainability assessment. APA was first initiated in 2023 by key players in the polymer industry who came together to highlight the key role of polyamide as a high-performance material for recyclable packaging applications. As the packaging industry undergoes major changes, APA will provide evidence and new solutions to ensure the transition to sustainable products. Polyamide has been a key material for advanced packaging for decades and is inherently respectful of the waste hierarchy. It enables the highest performance of a packaging while using the least amount of material. This provides the best protection for valuable goods at the best value for money in packaging production. Protecting valuable perishables with advanced polyamide packaging solutions helps reduce food waste. APA’s mission is to ensure that, by 2027, polyamide-based packaging is recognised as recyclable and sustainable, based on data and scientific evaluation, thereby making a significant contribution to preventing food waste and reducing raw material consumption. While the recyclability of polyethylene/polyamide packaging has already been proven through various protocols, the Association will continue to promote the positive contributions of this thinner and more robust packaging. APA aims to bring together stakeholders from across the flexible packaging value chain to raise awareness of polyamide-containing packaging, share knowledge and provide the resources to ensure that policy makers and the industry as a whole fully recognise the benefits of polyamide as a sustainable material in packaging.
