Fost Plus is developing a circular economy for household packaging in Belgium. But we are not doing so alone. We cooperate intensively with public and private partners for the collection, sorting and recycling: intermunicipal companies for household waste, collection companies, sorting centres and recycling partners. Together we provide a sustainable solution for every packaging put on the market.

We are specifically on the lookout for companies and partners that can offer innovative and sustainable solutions, including for waste flows that are still difficult to recycle at the moment.

Investing in a local circular economy

The household packaging that we collect from the Belgian public is recycled to produce new raw materials here in Belgium as much as possible. At the moment, this applies for almost 80% of the household packaging waste in Belgium. That percentage is set to increase over the coming years. Thanks to our investments, recycling can develop into a sustainable economic activity in this country, creating new jobs.

In search of sustainable and innovative solutions

Our members – all Belgian companies that bring packaged products onto the market – have set themselves ambitious recycling goals. In doing so, they go further than the national and European legislation. Their ultimate ambition is to offer a sustainable recycling solution for all packaging that is put on the Belgian market. So we are specifically on the lookout for companies and partners that can offer innovative and sustainable solutions, including for waste flows that are still difficult to recycle at the moment.

How does Fost Plus help shaping a circular economy?

Fost Plus trains your employees

Each link in the chain is crucial for the final quality of the collected materials. Well-trained employees, with a thorough sorting knowledge and understanding of the recycling process, really make a difference.

Fost Plus therefore trains hundreds of collectors and sorters from municipalities, intermunicipalities, environmental companies and sorting centres every year. We do that on site or online. Moreover, the training courses are completely free.
