From July 3, Italy has begun to ban plastic products including: cutlery, dinner plates, straws, cotton swabs, polystyrene containers and cups, balloons and balloon sticks, plastic bags, etc. The Federation of Italian Industrialists stated that this is just the beginning of a new round of bans on plastics, and that plastic coated paper cups and other products involving plastic materials will be phased out in the future.
In addition, the new regulations also make it clear that in addition to plastic products, plastic outer packaging is also prohibited. Therefore, more industries will suffer losses. Affected by this wave of plastic bans, 50,000 industry workers are expected to fall into crisis.
