The plastic value chain is complex, touching most, if not all, business sectors globally. Reducing plastic waste requires unprecedented effort, ultimately involving systems-level changes to transform the global plastic economy and combining commonly proposed approaches for plastics governance. GPCA realizes its role to equip you with the information you need to understand the global plastics system, providing a technical overview of plastics and plastic markets, as well as exploring common concepts and emerging trends. Held under the theme ‘Investing in New Value Creation: A Sustainable Transformation’, the GPCA Plastics Conference aims to provide a platform that enables the industry to discuss the direction in which we are heading, understand economic drivers, and environmental impact, dispel misconceptions, and assess which policies, practices, and technologies can support a more sustainable and circular management of plastic materials.
