The circular economy gives us the tools to tackle climate change and address important social needs. However, the transition from a linear to a circular economy is a rather complex process that requires collaboration throughout the value chain. In this presentation, Vink Kunststoffen and Mitsubishi Chemical Advanced Materials will explain how they have developed a closed-loop process for several polymers that resulted in closed-loop products without the significant loss of material properties. Moreover, this presentation will give you an insight in how you can directly contribute to the circular economy and how to use these closed-loop materials.
