By improving the data quality, granularity and availability of both packaging data and recycling services data and by enabling these datasets to be linked we believe we can support more sustainable packaging choices. By giving stakeholders visibility of the different parts of the chain we can help designers and manufacturers consider the end-of-life implications of their choices and we can help them determine the difference between a material being technically recyclable and the practicality of it being recycled. Providing recyclers and reprocessors with detailed data about material types and recycling disruptors we can enable more materials to be kept at a higher value for longer. Improving these datasets also helps deliver better information into the hands of consumers to support them to recycle more. Better data on market trends in packaging can also provide more certainty and unlock investment and innovation so that we can increase our recycling infrastructure and ensure more of our waste packaging ends up recycled. diff --git a/docs/1_Start_Here/1_2_Key_Concepts.md b/docs/1_Start_Here/1_2_Key_Concepts.md index 7a81ed49..91066928 100644 --- a/docs/1_Start_Here/1_2_Key_Concepts.md +++ b/docs/1_Start_Here/1_2_Key_Concepts.md @@ -1,6 +1,6 @@ --- title: Key Concepts -description: The key concepts to understanding the open data standard for the plastic value chain. +description: The key concepts to understanding the open data standard for the packaging value chain. --- # Key Concepts diff --git a/docs/1_Start_Here/1_3_Data_Flow.md b/docs/1_Start_Here/1_3_Data_Flow.md index 72d4744b..4c86af95 100644 --- a/docs/1_Start_Here/1_3_Data_Flow.md +++ b/docs/1_Start_Here/1_3_Data_Flow.md @@ -1,6 +1,6 @@ --- title: Data Flow -description: The intented flow of data through the plastic value chain using Open3P. +description: The intented flow of data through the packaging value chain using Open 3P. --- # Data Flow diff --git a/docs/1_Start_Here/1_4_Data_Schema.md b/docs/1_Start_Here/1_4_Data_Schema.md index a715afc0..ffe46d91 100644 --- a/docs/1_Start_Here/1_4_Data_Schema.md +++ b/docs/1_Start_Here/1_4_Data_Schema.md @@ -1,6 +1,6 @@ --- title: Data Schema -description: The current data schema of the Open3P open data standard for the plastic value chain. +description: The current data schema of the Open 3P open data standard for the packaging value chain. --- # Data Schema diff --git a/docs/4_Identifiers/4_1_Identifiers.md b/docs/4_Identifiers/4_1_Identifiers.md index 44e3a4a8..95311229 100644 --- a/docs/4_Identifiers/4_1_Identifiers.md +++ b/docs/4_Identifiers/4_1_Identifiers.md @@ -4,9 +4,9 @@ title: Identifiers # Identifiers -Identifiers are the way that humans and machines can know that a particular thing is definitely that thing.
