We kindly invite you to our next Plastic Matters event on the 12th of September in our office building in Brussels.
This event is co-organised with Denuo and aims to stimulate circularity of the Belgian plastics industry. The ever-increasing demand on recycled plastics is more and more revealing the need for more collection of plastic containing material to recycle.
The topic of this new event is therefore “Setting up collection systems for plastic waste from ‘Construction and Demolition Waste‘: ARE YOU READY FOR THE NEXT STEP ? “
