    Finalists have been announced for the third Plastics Recycling Awards Europe which will be held in early spring.

    The winners of the Plastics Recycling Awards Europe 2020 will be announced on the second day of the two-day Plastics Recycling Europe (PRSE) show, which is returning to the Rai in Amsterdam 25-26 March.

    The Plastics Recycling Awards Europe are organised jointly by Plastics Recyclers Europe and Crain Communications, organisers of PRSE.

    This year’s awards, according to PRE president Ton Emans, have attracted a record number of entries, particularly in the product technology category. 

    “The influx of projects… from across the whole value chain including brand owners, raw material producers, machine and equipment producers is a testimony that there is a genuine commitment from all the actors to make plastics circular,” said Emans.
