Plastics enable us to do more than we know. They conserve resources, save energy and protect the climate. But plastics can also pose a problem – if we humans fail to handle them properly: careless use and often simply incorrect disposal have led to unacceptable environmental problems. However, politicians, business and we have joined forces to actively work on solutions.
Scarce resources and climate change are forcing us all to rethink. Away from the throwaway society towards a carbon-neutral, ecologically sustainable and pollutant-free circular economy. Of course, this also applies to the plastics industry.
A key area of what we offer is therefore innovations that contribute to the more sustainable use of our material of the future in a functioning circular economy.
