The PR3 Standards make it easy to reuse packaging efficiently, profitably and at scale.

We provide guidance for businesses to profitably offer convenient reusable packaging systems for consumers. Our reuse standards guide the safe use of reusable containers for businesses that want to use them in compliance with local regulatory authorities.

Reuse reduces the most waste and saves the most money.

Reduce levers are often most economical to implement while plastic substitutes are typically more expensive.

Why standards are important:

Businesses, communities, governments, and consumers benefit from consistent rules when developing and investing in new systems.

  • Standards:

    • create certainty and unlock investment for large companies, small

    • entrepreneurs, and public infrastructure

    • create efficiencies that lead to lower costs

    • can ensure environmental performance

    • can promote accessibility and equity

    • accelerate behavior change

    • lead to scale
