Packaging Pilot: Boulder County’s Call for Circularity

Who this webinar is for: Boulder County food and beverage manufacturers, Boulder County packaging suppliers, and others interested in learning more about sustainable packaging options.

In 2020, Boulder County’s Office of Sustainability, Climate Action, and Resilience (OSCAR) won an EPA grant to help food and beverage manufacturers transition to pollution reduced packaging. For the first time, Boulder County is developing how best to incentivize the design and manufacturing of closed loop packaging. This project addresses OSCAR’s goal of accelerating the circular economy in our community and combating climate change.

The webinar will cover preliminary findings and introduce the pilot program application. The pilot program is an opportunity for two to three Boulder County food or beverage manufacturers to receive incentivization for packaging redesign. The incentivization may include technical assistance, packaging / equipment subsidization, materials testing, and storytelling of participants. Time will be saved at the end of the webinar for Q&A.
