The Case for Sustainable Plastics: How Changing Dynamics Spark Innovation
Partnerships across the supply chain—with organizations sharing similar sustainability values to deliver bio-renewability, compostability and recyclability—help the packaging industry move toward reducing waste and becoming a circular economy.
Join Sun Chemical’s Dr. Nikola Juhasz to examine how printers and their partners together can:
- Minimize pollution and waste
- Extend product lifecycles
- Enable sharing of assets
- Keep resource usage within planetary boundaries
Dr. Juhasz’s presentation will also focus on extended producer responsibility programs, single-use plastics prohibitions, and the Association of Plastic Recycler’s Global Design Catalog; plus adherence to the 5Rs framework: reuse, reduce, renew, recycle and redesign. It’s all about how innovation enables circularity.
