Circular economy in action

EREMA North America stages industry symposium


EREMA North America's (ENA) recent Discovery Day generated a great deal of interest. The Technical Center in Ipswich, Massachusetts, became the meeting point for well-known companies spanning all sectors of the plastics industry. The focus of the discussions and demonstrations was on post-consumer recycling.

"Our goal is to take advantage of the growing awareness of the necessity of plastics recycling and drive forward networking within the industry. We managed to achieve this at our Discovery Day on 25 September," says a delighted Martin Baumann, VP Sales of ENA, referring not only to the speakers who were pleased to take part but also the impressive flow of visitors. 130 guests from all areas of the plastics scene accepted EREMA's invitation.

The focal theme was the recycling of post-consumer waste, with the circular economy being a possibly path if raw material producers, processors, brand article manufacturers and recyclers pursue it together. This was also underscored by the external speakers from Envision Plastics, Exxon Mobil and Interseroh Dienstleistungs AG, who presented outstanding projects in their talks. Efforts to improve recyclate quality were at the centre of analysis and discussion.
