3-step plan to sustainable plastics

With a forecast of more than 1 billion tonnes by 2050, the global demand for plastic is rapidly increasing. This growth presents a significant challenge due to its impact on the environment and resources. This challenges the industry to transition to a circular and sustainable system.

During the webinar on 11 March, TNO will present an innovative 3-step plan that supports companies in choosing the best routes for sustainable alternatives. This plan helps companies find the optimal balance between sustainability and economic feasibility.

This webinar offers the plastic industry, brand manufacturers, and policymakers practical insights and guidelines to accelerate the transition to sustainable plastics.

Get answers to questions such as:

  • What sustainable plastic alternatives are available?
  • How can we produce sustainable plastics from renewable carbon sources like CO2, hydrogen, biomass, or recycled plastics?
  • How do these raw materials compare to global volumes?
  • What is the role of biobased plastics and how significant is this role?
  • And in which plastic product applications should we apply which feedstock?

Learn more in the webinar about:

  • Insights into methods for identifying novel biobased alternatives to existing fossil materials.
