Plastics Recyclers Europe Established a new Taskforce
The organization has announced the establishment of a new Dissolution Taskforce, which reflects recent technological advancements in the industry.
This initiative follows a collaboration with DROP-IN, the Dissolution Recycling of Plastics Initiative. The goal is “to shape policies that enhance the recognition of dissolution recycling and to ensure a level playing field among all recycling technologies”.
Dissolution recycling refers to technologies that recover polymers from plastic waste through a solvent-based physical recycling process, aiming to maintain the integrity of polymer chains. The initiative is designed to promote the potential of this versatile technology while supporting a circular plastics economy, alongside mechanical and chemical recycling. Companies engaged in dissolution recycling are welcome to join Plastics Recyclers Europe (PRE) and its new Dissolution Taskforce to share their expertise and contribute to supporting a circular future for plastics.
