Mobilizing business leadership We worked closely with our community of more than 300 business partners, primarily from the agri- food, consumer goods, retail, petrochemical and waste-management sectors, while expanding our network into new industries and regions. Interest in GPAP’s work has grown across sectors such as automotive, healthcare, electronics, construction and tourism, which increasingly recognize the negative impact of plastic pollution on economic resilience and the need for solutions throughout the value chain to support sustainable growth. Through close cooperation with industry leaders, GPAP has identified four main priorities in creating new opportunities for private-sector collaboration. These include (1) public–private collaboration around global frameworks such as the Global Plastics Treaty and the Global Framework on Chemicals, as well as regional and national approaches such as extended producer responsibility schemes; (2) technological innovation and the use of digital and AI solutions to improve efficiency and transparency throughout the plastics value chain; (3) chemical safety and health, with opportunities to collaborate with GPAP’s network of 25 National Plastic Action Partnerships to support chemicals management; and (4) financing mechanisms unleashing the full potential of innovative and blended finance to enable green growth. GPAP also strengthened its position as a global convener, bringing together business leaders at major international gatherings, including a CEO dialogue during the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting 2025 in Davos and multiple sessions during Global Plastics Treaty negotiations to mobilize private-sector solutions. GPAP took a significant step in deepening collaboration with the private sector to advance plastics circularity and encourage resilience with technology. We’ve already reduced virgin plastic use by 33% from a 2018 baseline, and we aim to go further by 2030. It can be done – and we would welcome treaty mechanisms that help the industry more. H. Fisk Johnson, Chief Executive Officer, SC Johnson As a company, we see sustainability as a responsibility. We also see opportunity for our future business.
