EU policymakers must prioritize EU-recycled plastic for recycling targets 🇪🇺 Due to the increasing demand for recycled plastics, imports of virgin and recycled materials are already knocking at our doors. Therefore, EU policies, such as the PPWR, must: 📑 Ensure alignment of legislative requirements for imported products with those applicable to the EU industry 💸 Address high energy costs and market price fluctuations Prioritizing #MadeInEU recycled plastic safeguards the competitiveness of the EU plastics recycling industry and promotes sustainability 🌱 More in Plastics Recyclers Europe's Manifesto 👉 https://lnkd.in/erf57E6v #CircularPlastics #CircularEconomy #PlasticsRecycling #EUGreenDeal #PPWR #ClimateNeutralEU #RecycledPlastics #MadeInEU

Let's stay circular away from home 🛫🏞️ Whether you're backpacking through the Alps, teaching abroad, or enjoying the view of the Eiffel Tower, inform yourself about the sorting and recycling systems in place at your destination. Deposit Return Systems (DRS) are already established in many countries, so be sure to look for them. These systems allow you to return beverage containers for a deposit refund, which helps reduce waste and encourages recycling. And when choosing souvenirs or buying at local stores, go for recyclable, recycled and sustainable options. And keep an eye open for greenwashing! Let's give the planet a break this summer 🌎 #RecycleOnHolidays #PlasticsRecycling #PlasticsWaste #CircularPlastics #MakingPlasticsCircular #CircularEconomy #ReduceReuseRecycle #ClosingTheLoop #Plastic2Plastic

What happens to PET trays, after being compressed into bales at a sorting centre? At a recycling plant, they are ground into flakes and fines, which are washed separately while simultaneously running through multiple cycles. This ensures high quality and safety for food contact applications! 🍓✅ Lean more about the recycling journey of PET trays! ♻👉 https://lnkd.in/e_cJDdwx #PETtrays #DesignforRecycling #RecycledPET #rPET #PETrecycling

Hey there, beach lovers! 🏖️🌊 As we soak up the sun and enjoy the waves this summer, let's keep a circular mindset and our beaches clean. Here are a few tips to be more environmentally conscious beach-goers: 🌴 Choose reusable, recycled, and recyclable items: Opt for reusable water bottles, containers, and bags to minimize single-use plastic waste. 🌴 Be mindful of where your trash ends up: Make sure to dispose of your waste in designated bins and be aware of the impact of your trash on the environment. 🌴 Carry a bin bag: Take a bag with you to collect and dispose of your waste properly. Remember to separate recyclables from general waste to make recycling easier. #RecycleOnHolidays #PlasticsRecycling #PlasticsWaste #CircularPlastics #MakingPlasticsCircular #CircularEconomy #ReduceReuseRecycle #ClosingTheLoop #Plastic2Plastic
