Denuo et essenscia vous invitent à leur prochain événement Plastic Matters le 3 octobre 2024 dans leur immeuble de bureaux à Bruxelles.
Cet événement vise à stimuler la circularité de l'industrie belge du plastique. La langue de l'événement est l'anglais.
Plastiwin sera présent pour présenter comment la démarche Circular Design in Plastics soutien tous les maillons de la chaîne de valeur plastique dans la mise en place de l'écoconception. Rejoignez-nous !
“A new future for sustainable plastics: Getting started with circular design”
Enhancing the circularity of the plastic value chain goes beyond just increasing plastic waste collection and recycling efforts. It begins at the very start: considering the end-of-life impact of products during the design phase of new products.
Plastic Matters will introduce you to the new Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR), will share insights from a professor of Materials Science and Product Development at the University of Antwerp, and provide a retour of experiences from Pack4Food and Circular Design in Plastics.
You will be able to delve deeper into the subject through a series of practical and challenging exercises and hear interesting testimonials from companies who have already re-evaluated their product design.
