Meet Our Featured Speakers

Sustainability in the plastics industry is now one of the top five priorities for decision-makers. This shift is driven by efforts to reduce plastic waste, develop biodegradable materials, and implement circular economy practices. At Sustainable Plastics Europe 2026, attendees will examine how the industry is progressing through innovative materials and processes. Experts agree that sustainability has become one of the most pressing challenges for the sector, marking a pivotal moment in the move towards environmentally responsible plastic solutions.

Sustainable Plastics and How the Industry is Adapting

New sustainable plastic products, bioplastics, and recycling innovations are being introduced almost every week. At Sustainable Plastics Europe 2026, industry leaders will highlight breakthrough applications in sustainable polymers and advanced recycling techniques. Major companies are investing significantly in research to improve the recyclability of plastics while maintaining performance and cost efficiency. The event will feature key use cases focused on creating fully recyclable products, reducing plastic waste, and supporting circularity throughout the supply chain, helping to shape the future of plastics manufacturing.

Innovations Transforming Plastics Production

Innovative technologies, including advanced polymer development and sustainable material engineering, are set to reshape the plastic production landscape. Companies are concentrating on developing bio-based and biodegradable alternatives to conventional plastics, while also optimising production processes to reduce energy consumption and waste. Supported by ongoing research into sustainable practices, the next step for the industry is the broad adoption of renewable and recyclable materials across key sectors such as automotive, packaging, and medical.

Although challenges remain, including meeting targets for durability and cost, experts agree that the move towards sustainable plastics will transform production. The adoption of these innovations will support the transition to a more environmentally conscious and efficient plastics industry.
