Boosting Plastic Packaging Recyclability: Setting the Right Standards

On 27 April 2023, HSbooster.eu project organised a webinar titled "Boosting Plastic Packaging Recyclability: Setting the Right Standards", focusing on the interplay between regulation, standardisation, research, and innovation and how these in unity can boost plastic packaging recyclability in Europe. The webinar was started by HSbooster.eu Coordinator Nicholas Ferguson, who provided an overview of the project and our role in the European standardisation initiative. Followed by the European Commission and the European Technical Committee for Standardisation of Packaging, which talked about upcoming regulations, standards, and opportunities. The second session was the presentation of the European Horizon Projects, such as CIMPA, MERLIN, and upPE-T, which provided examples of their work with recycling plastic packaging and research and innovation projects and how projects can learn more about how to get engaged via HSbooster.eu. The final session involves panellists discussing the interplay between regulation, standardisation, research, and innovation.

Abstract

On 27 April 2023, HSbooster.eu project organised a webinar titled "Boosting Plastic Packaging Recyclability: Setting the Right Standards", focusing on the interplay between regulation, standardisation, research, and innovation and how these in unity can boost plastic packaging recyclability in Europe. The webinar was started by HSbooster.eu Coordinator Nicholas Ferguson, who provided an overview of the project and our role in the European standardisation initiative. Followed by the European Commission and the European Technical Committee for Standardisation of Packaging, which talked about upcoming regulations, standards, and opportunities. The second session was the presentation of the European Horizon Projects, such as CIMPA, MERLIN, and upPE-T, which provided examples of their work with recycling plastic packaging and research and innovation projects and how projects can learn more about how to get engaged via HSbooster.eu. The final session involves panellists discussing the interplay between regulation, standardisation, research, and innovation.
