In the frame of POLREC project, which aim at supporting a green and resilient Europe through POLymer RECycling, we are offering you the opportunity to participate to the 5th online edition of the

European Eco-Plasturgy Congress , organised on Tuesday March 28^th.

After 4 successful editions in Lyon, Saragossa and in virtual format in 2020 and 2022 where about sixty participants gathered around themes such as eco-design, biopolymers and recycling, the 5th edition will take place in virtual format with CEA as well as the 4 European partners of POLREC project : Plast center Denmark, CENTIMFE, MAV Cluster and Wirtschaftsförderung Raum Heilbronn.

The objectives of this day are :

• To highlight the technological and commercial opportunities in the field of eco-plasturgy

• Connecting leading companies with technology experts and start-ups

• Cooperation for European companies, including SMEs

• Scientific and technological exchanges between experts of the circular economy in the field of plastics developments and applications

Registrations

Fees: 100€ TTC for MAV Cluster members – 140€ TTC for non-members. Register here.
