Let’s Get to Work
The global plastic debt is over 9 billion tons and counting. It’s a crisis that threatens our health, our livelihoods and our planet. Together, we can make a difference.
The Plastic Cleanup Partner Program
In March 2024 PCX Solutions announced a transition away from Net Zero Waste certification, and PCX Markets launched the Plastic Cleanup Partner program. While the methodology we used to certify the Net Zero claims is robust and sound, there is no global consensus as yet on the terminology and methodology for Net Zero.
The Plastic Cleanup Partner label is awarded to companies and brands that deliver significant, measurable impact in cleaning up plastic waste. Customers who see the PCX Plastic Cleanup Partner label can be assured that they’re buying products from a brand that’s working hard to keep plastic waste out of nature.
Since the Net Zero Plastic Waste Certification came with a three year commitment, the NZPW label may continue to appear on some of our partners’ packaging as we make this transition.
