Strategic orientation. Practical knowledge.
Information relevant to decision-making.
The Polymer Forum brings together decision-makers and specialists who are not just discussing transformation, but implementing it. We showcase real-world industry examples rather than theoretical concepts. We provide decision-relevant knowledge on materials, technologies and processes. We promote exchange with leading companies along the value chain.
Welcome to the 12th Polymer Forum at the Stadthalle Aschaffenburg.
From post-consumer recyclates to biopolymers for a circular future
The plastics industry is undergoing a profound transformation. The use of post-consumer recyclates is being discussed with increasing frequency – and increasingly also for applications where the use of recyclates was previously ruled out. At the same time, the question arises: what is happening in the field of biopolymers? Are they really the materials of the future?
As plastics experts with multifaceted expertise, one of our key tasks is to enable solutions for plastics recycling and the use of recycled materials in demanding industrial applications. In this way, we aim to contribute to addressing environmental challenges and promoting competitiveness.
