New Jersey S3135 mandates plastic packaging and product reductions and restricts toxic substances in packaging.

New Jersey S3135 requires producers of plastic packaging and certain plastic products to reduce the quantity of plastic sold annually. The bill mandates a phased reduction in plastic sales, reaching 50% of the baseline amount after ten years. It also restricts the sale of packaging containing toxic substances, including metals, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), and vinyl chloride. The bill expands the "Toxic Packaging Reduction Act" to include additional toxic substances and establishes a Toxic Packaging Task Force to recommend further restrictions.
