Supporting Cooperatives
Across the world, companies are scaling up efforts to minimize their environmental impact to meet their corporate goals and government regulations. In Brazil, the Associação Brasileira da Indústria de Higiene Pessoal, Perfumaria, e Cosméticos (ABIHPEC) is the industry association for the personal hygiene and cosmetics sector. The association helps its members to comply with Brazil’s National Solid Waste Policy, which requires manufacturers or suppliers to recover the waste from their products after enduse. The policy recognizes that waste pickers are key to this and encourages companies to integrate waste pickers’ cooperatives into their programs.
