Reverse Logistics Group (RLG) is proud to participate in SPC Advance 2025, the Sustainable Packaging Coalition’s premier fall event, taking place September 29 to October 1, 2025, at the Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport in Boston, Massachusetts.

Why SPC Advance Matters

In today’s era of rapidly evolving EPR policies, heightened consumer expectations, and urgent environmental demands, sustainable packaging has reached a pivotal moment. SPC Advance aims to harness this momentum by uniting stakeholders across sectors to explore tangible solutions and strategies.

Why RLG is Attending

At RLG, we believe that traceability, circularity, and regulatory compliance go hand-in-hand with innovation and strategic growth. SPC Advance brings together a powerful community committed to packaging sustainability—making it the perfect platform for RLG to support and collaborate with brands navigating this evolving landscape.

What We Can Talk About

Stop by booth #16 and chat with RLG to explore:

  • EPR & regulatory alignment with global and U.S. packaging policies
  • Carbon reduction & LCA strategies to measure and mitigate impact
  • Recovery, PCR, and circular integration into product lifecycles
  • Innovative collaborations that span stakeholders and supply chains

Plus—Catch Us Speaking at the How2Recycle Summit 2025!

Immediately following SPC Advance, RLG is honored to participate in the How2Recycle Summit—a members-only extension co-located at the same Omni Seaport venue on October 2, 2025.

This summit zeroes in on redefining recyclability—bringing together policymakers, brands, and innovators to deepen trust, transparency, and clarity in recyclability labeling. You’ll find sessions on:

  • AI’s impact on recovery, sortation, and recyclability decision-making
  • Transparency in How2Recycle label development and issuance
  • State-level policy shifts redefining recyclability criteria
  • Data integrity and trust in disposal instruction systems

 

We’re proud that Jade Bassler, Compliance and Sustainability Specialist at RLG, will be among the featured speakers at the Summit.
