Earlier deadline for Singapore firms to report how much packaging waste they produce
Singapore
COMPANIES in Singapore will have to report the packaging used in their products a year earlier than the previous deadline, in the national push to reduce waste.
By the end of 2020, firms that use packaging - from supermarkets to importers - must be ready to submit an annual report to the National Environment Agency (NEA) with information on the type and amount of packaging in their products, as well as their packaging waste reduction plans.
