Despite significant progress, recycling efforts in Europe face several challenges. Understanding these obstacles is crucial for developing effective solutions.

Common Challenges

• Contamination of Recyclables: Improper sorting and contamination can lead to entire batches of recyclables being sent to landfills.
• Lack of Infrastructure: In some regions, inadequate recycling facilities hinder effective recycling efforts.

Addressing these challenges is essential for improving recycling rates and achieving sustainability goals.
