We wholeheartedly welcome the announcement of a Clean Industrial Deal and a European Competitiveness Fund and congratulate Ursula von der Leyen on her re-election as President of the European Commission 👏. Six months since the European Industry Summit, the collective voice of 25 industrial sectors represented by nearly 1,300 stakeholders that signed the Antwerp Declaration has been heard loud and clear. A Clean Industrial Deal will safeguard the competitiveness of Europe’s energy-intensive industries and allow us to achieve our common aspirations to implement the #EUGreenDeal 🌍. We look forward to working with the new European Commission on these initiatives towards a greener, prosperous, and more competitive Europe. Together, we can ensure that the future of clean and cutting-edge technology is made in Europe 🦾. We are grateful for the acknowledgement of our call for an Industrial Deal as outlined in the #AntwerpDeclaration 📜. “The fundamentals of the global economy are changing and those who are not competitive will be dependent ⚙️. The future of our prosperity must be made in Europe.” #IndustrialDeal #EuropesChoice #EPlenary European Parliament

💡To boost chemical recycling rates in the EU, increased investments in facilities are key. However, for this approach to thrive, clarity on the mass balance chain of custody is needed for calculating recycled content in plastics. 🔵How can we ensure mass balance works for plastics recycling? 🔵Why do we need the fuel-use exempt model to calculate the chemically recycled content in plastics? ➡️Tune into our #BrusselsUnpacked Podcast episode and listen to Philipp Sauer & Justin van Schepen discuss #chemicalrecycling with Cefic Innovation Director Annick Meerschman! 📻 Listen and subscribe: https://lnkd.in/eBSEM36z #chemicalindustry #industryintransition #sustainability #investments #podcast #innovation #EUGreenDeal #recycling #massbalance

🍻 Happy International Beer Day! 🍻 On 2 August 2024, we raise a glass to celebrate the rich heritage, craftsmanship, and of course, chemistry behind our favourite brews 🧪. From the perfect balance of alpha and beta acids to the delightful hop aromas, chemistry plays a vital role in every sip. Here’s to the brewers who bring creativity and science together to create the beers we love. Cheers to innovation, tradition, and the joy of beer! #InternationalBeerDay #FunFacts #Chemistry Source: Compound Interest | Chemistry infographics
