2026-06-03 11:50 2026-06-03 12:10 Europe/Madrid Applied research for the implementation of chemical recycling of plastic waste Chemical recycling comprises a range of alternatives to treat plastic waste and transform it into new substances that can be reintegrated into production cycles. The path toward its implementation as an industrial reality must address different aspects related both to the processes themselves and to the pre-treatment of waste, as well as improving the quality of the resulting products, in addition to considering economic and regulatory environments. Through activities in R&D projects, the key factors across several of these aspects are identified. Rethinking Plastic

2026-06-03 12:10 2026-06-03 12:30 Europe/Madrid Advanced Mechanical Recycling of Multilayer Packaging for a Circular Economy This presentation introduces the new industrial plant of Fych Technologies, dedicated to the recycling of multilayer plastic waste. The facility focuses on the recovery of polyaluminum for the production of rLDPE, the recycling of Bag-in-Box packaging to generate rLDPE, and the production of HDPE and PP blends from bottle caps. The plant will serve as a demonstration of our patented technologies: mechanical delamination, which enables the recovery of materials by removing adhesives and inks, and decontamination, designed to eliminate compounds and odors present in recycled plastics. These processes make it possible to obtain high-value materials suitable for new industrial applications, including pellets and film. Examples of industrial validation and collaboration with manufacturers will be presented, showing how multilayer packaging—traditionally difficult to recycle—can be efficiently integrated into a circular economy, combining technological innovation and sustainability.

2026-06-03 12:30 2026-06-03 13:30 Europe/Madrid Strategy for the plastics recycling sector in Spain 2026–2030

In a context of increasing regulatory demands and competitive pressure, ANARPLA presents its Strategic Plan for the Plastics Recycling Sector 2026–2030, a roadmap to consolidate a more competitive, innovative, and resilient industrial model.

The session will combine a strategic vision of the sector—focused on challenges such as the lack of structural demand and market volatility—with a discussion among leading recycling companies. It will address the main transformation pillars, from industrial modernization and demand generation to digitalization, traceability, and the valorization of recycling as a key activity for the ecological transition and raw material autonomy.
