As a society, we need to rethink plastic. It is far too valuable to be treated as waste. And it can serve as the feedstock for circularity. This calls for concerted action, in particular, to tackle plastic waste and ensure its recycling.
Plastic has a low footprint, is cheap, flexible, light and has multiple possibilities. At the downside, plastic litter can be found all around the globe.
Our mission is to boost circularity in plastics on an industrial scale. We address the entire value chain from an international perspective and focus on the technological, logistic, and societal challenges lying ahead.
You are cordially invited
During CPC’22 research and industry experts will update you on the current progress and challenges in their field. This year it’s all about gathering and meeting each other so there will be plenty of room to discuss and meet. We aim to inspire and energize you, because all of us together can make the necessary steps to a circular plastics society
- Let’s meet: leading minds come together
- Let’s catch-up: key note speakers share recent insights in circular plastics
- Let’s interact: join us in panel discussions and networking
This year the conference will be hosted live on the 18th and 19th of May in Eindhoven, the Netherlands.
Program
Both days the program will be built around the Circular Plastics Roadmap. This roadmap is designed together with our community and discusses concrete challenges:
- Design for recycling
- Sorting & washing
- Mechanical & (thermo-) chemical recycling
- Social and governance challenges
At the CPC’22 we will pick up where we left CPC’21, addressing the current developments and new challenges
