    Summary
    The physical flow account for plastic material (PFAPM) is an environmental-eocnomi account created to support the Government of Canada's Zero Plastic Waste Agenda. The PFAPM accounts for the plastic content of internationally imported and exported products as well as international imports and exports of sorted and baled plastic waste and disposed plastic waste and scrap. The account provides annual estimates by product category, resin type, and province and territory. The time-series starts in 2012 and now includes 2020.
