Thanks for having me in your panel Plastics Recycling Show Europe Plastics Recyclers Europe and kudos to our moderator Karen Laird . It was a pleasure to explain the 5-pillar model on how to drive circular economies for (plastic) packaging. We need innovation on pillar 4 (more granular sorting enabled by #Holygrail2 leading to waste digitalisation and resulting in many end to end benefits) and pillar 5(new recycling technologies including dissolution/physical recycling (such as PureCycle Technologies and more solvent based purification technologies including mechanical recycling with decontamination technologies using solvent washing). At the end we need all 3 recycling technologies: -mechanical -dissolution and -chemical! #PGemployee Alliance to End Plastic Waste AIM - European Brands Association

From waste to valuable material - in plastics? Yes, actually happening all over the USA (and many other countries). While there remain many challenges and a lot more work needs to be done, the question „is plastic recycling a myth or a reality“ can in fact be answered with „yes plastic recycling is real and it creates jobs here at home“. Check out this link to learn more and see a few videos of companies that practice just that. https://lnkd.in/eV3skmig #recycling #plastics #recyclingIsReal

Thanks Matt Tudball for sharing that EuCertPlast and RecyClass have joined forces to create a new certification for plastic recyclers. The combination of these schemes will simplify processes for customers, while delivering higher transparency within the plastic recycling industry. This should also build trust in future claims around recycled content. Next year Spain prepares for a €450 per tonne tax on plastics packaging. This new coalition will support recyclers understanding what taxes they should pay #circularity #sustainability #recycling #icis https://lnkd.in/dvyBiFCn
