Strategy for the Spanish Plastics Industry, for a circular, climate-neutral, and competitive sector

2026-06-02 11:00 2026-06-02 11:30 Europe/Madrid Strategy for the Spanish Plastics Industry, for a circular, climate-neutral, and competitive sector The plastics industry is an essential pillar of the Spanish economy and a key ally in the transition towards a more sustainable world. Its versatility, capacity for innovation, and commitment to the circular economy place it in a strategic position to address major social, economic, and environmental challenges. The Strategy for the Spanish Plastics Industry, developed by EsPlásticos in collaboration with the Ministry of Industry and Tourism, was officially presented in 2025. It is a pioneering initiative that sets out a roadmap for the sector based on five pillars that strengthen its role as a driver of growth, circularity, and climate neutrality. A firm commitment to the future. Rethinking Plastic

Closing the Loop: Veolia’s Technologies and Strategies to Achieve Circularity of Flexible Packaging

2026-06-02 11:30 2026-06-02 11:50 Europe/Madrid Closing the Loop: Veolia’s Technologies and Strategies to Achieve Circularity of Flexible Packaging Flexible packaging is one of the most complex materials to integrate into the circular economy. Veolia promotes a comprehensive and innovative approach to address this challenge, combining mechanical recycling —with successful cases such as the Lidl project, where bags were developed using 100% recycled material— and the potential of chemical recycling as a complementary technology. Additionally, it relies on the Circularity Guide for Plastics in Green Public Procurement as a strategic lever to promote demand for recycled materials and consolidate a real circular economy.

Circularity Combining Sustainability and Food Safety in Industrial and Commercial Plastic Packaging

2026-06-02 11:50 2026-06-02 12:10 Europe/Madrid Circularity Combining Sustainability and Food Safety in Industrial and Commercial Plastic Packaging The LIFECLOOVER2 2023–2027 project is implementing closed-loop systems for the reuse and recycling of polyolefin plastic packaging for agri-food uses. Industrial drums, jerrycans, and commercial fruit and vegetable boxes undergo multiple reuse cycles, after which they are recycled; the resulting raw material is incorporated into the manufacture of new packaging, ensuring functionality and food safety. Coordinated by SINTAC, the project includes industrial partners AGROFRESH, GCR, PALEC ECOLÓGICO and REYDE-GRUPO ARMANDO ALVAREZ, and associations AMAFRUVA and CAPEC. Rethinking Plastic
