2026-06-03 15:50 2026-06-03 17:00 Europe/Madrid From Plastic Waste to Raw Material: The Role of PROs in the New Circular Industry In a context shaped by new packaging regulations, including the future implementation of the European Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR), and the emergence of multiple Producer Responsibility Organizations (PROs), Spain’s plastic waste management system is evolving towards a more competitive, demanding, and value-oriented model. Beyond regulatory compliance, the key challenge is to transform plastic waste into high-quality raw material that is viable for industry and aligned with European objectives on recyclability, recycled content, packaging reuse, and waste prevention. This session will bring together key stakeholders across the value chain to discuss how recycled plastic can become a truly strategic resource and the role different actors play in shaping a new circular economy.
