The British Plastics Federation, in partnership with Plastics Europe, is hosting an online half-day seminar on 24 March on ‘The Challenges of Incorporating Recycled Content in Plastics Packaging’.
This event will feature presentations from government, industry and a retailer, looking at supply, measurement, certification, technical barriers and industry case studies. Regulatory aspects and technical challenges will be addressed in detail, and opportunities to ask questions will be offered.
BPF Director General Philip Law said that the event has been designed to provide a thorough overview of the current situation and to give companies a competitive advantage
“Incorporating recycled content will be one of the most important topics for a large part of our industry in 2022,” he noted.
“Plastics Europe members support a 30% EU mandatory target for recycled content in plastics packaging by 2030 to accelerate plastics’ circularity. An enabling and harmonised policy framework and strong collaboration with the value chain and Institutions are essential to make it happen,” added Adrian Whyle, Resource Efficiency Senior Manager, Plastics Europe adding that the association was delighted to be co-sponsoring this ‘timely’ webinar.
‘The Challenges of Incorporating Recycled Content in Plastics Packaging' will run from 13.00 to 16.55 on 24 March.
Delegates registering before 11 March also get access to two online packaging courses on PolymerCourses.com. The event costs £75 + VAT for BPF and Plastics Europe members and £149 + VAT for non-members. Full details of this online seminar can be found at bpf.co.uk
