The recent creation of WUPA (World Union of Plastics Associations) marks a significant milestone for the global plastics sector.

In the context of Equiplast, its first edition after its foundation, this session will provide an in-depth look at this new international initiative that brings together sector associations with the aim of building a unified voice based on science, combating misinformation, and promoting sustainable and transparent practices.

Its vision, mission, and strategic role as a platform for global collaboration will be presented, fostering knowledge exchange, innovation, and dialogue with society. A key step to strengthen the sector’s positioning in the face of current and future challenges.

Within the framework of Equiplast, a new edition of the sector report—developed in collaboration with the Spanish Plastics Centre (CEP) and other industry organizations—will be presented, offering an updated overview of the plastics industry and highlighting its strategic and cross-sector role, as well as its capacity for innovation and transformation.

This will be followed by a recognition event for leading professionals, companies and organizations in the sector, as part of an evening that will culminate with the Gala Dinner, a key meeting point for industry leaders and a high-level networking opportunity.
