The investment that the EU is making in the circular economy is on such a scale that it’s vital to communicate what that means for the environment, citizens, businesses and cities across the continent
The plastics industry is undergoing a profound transformation to achieve a circular economy in Europe.
The efforts are mainly focused on:
The members of the Plastic Circularity Multiplier initiative have organized a joint conference in October 2020 to communicate the contribution of their projects according to these five categories.
More collaboration activities will be set up according to the synergies between projects.
The members of the Plastics Circularity Multiplier Initiative have developed a complete database to find the projects with the same needs for each of the following criteria:
