GreenPlast 2025, the international exhibition and conference dedicated to materials, technologies, and processes for plastics and rubber processing with a focus on environmental sustainability and energy efficiency, is set to return to Milan from 27 to 30 May 2025 at Fiera Milano, Rho Pero.
European legislation: An epochal shift
Recent environmental and sustainability legislation is transforming the plastics sector, promoting a circular economy and reducing the environmental impact of plastic waste. Since 2018, the EU has set forth on a path toward greater sustainability and material circularity, imposing new regulations that will reshape the entire industry in the coming years. This historic transition marks an unprecedented shift toward ecological responsibility, in which the manufacturing sector must now adhere more closely to EU directives than market demands alone. The key pillars of the European plastics strategy include:
- Promotion of a circular economy for plastics;
- Designing more durable plastics and products to facilitate reuse and recycling;
- Initiatives to enhance the use of recycled materials and improve the separate collection of plastic waste;
- Increasing plastic recycling rates through advancements in production and design technologies;
- Actions to mitigate the prevalence of single-use plastics;
- Improved waste collection: strengthening infrastructure for the collection and recycling of plastic waste to promote the use of recycled plastic;
- Promoting innovation: funding and support for the development of advanced recycling technologies and research into alternative materials.
