Winner of the Travelife Partner Commitment to Sustainability award, Lux Travel DMC aims to achieve the highest level of certification, the first luxury tour operator and DMC is pioneering the elimination of plastic “Zero Plastic” in its applications. The Lux Travel DMC Strategy on Zero Plastic Waste 2024 lays out a path to consider plastic as a valuable resource and defines areas of work contributing to ambitious plastic waste reduction targets as outlined in the Ocean Plastics Charter.
This strategy and its implementation will significantly contribute to achieving both a circular and low-carbon economy while reducing the environmental impact of plastic waste. Adopting a circular economy approach, the strategy aims to prolong the use of products and materials and maximize their value, envisioning keeping all plastics within the economy and preventing their entry into the environment, thus achieving zero plastic waste.
Three core areas of this strategy
The strategy recognizes the interdependence of three core areas: prevention, collection and clean-up, and value recovery, constituting an integrated system. Performance enhancement of this system will be supported through various enabling activities like consumer education, research, regulations, and market-based instruments, all working towards the zero plastic waste goal.
In this context, the document focuses on three main areas: a) preventing plastic waste through designing durable and repairable plastic products, and reducing the demand for disposable plastic items; b) ensuring the collection of all plastics, including through clean-up efforts, directing them back into the economy; and c) recovering value from all plastic materials.
