As part of the special show <a href=\"https:\/\/plasticseurope.org\/de\/plastics-shape-the-future-k-2025\/\"><strong>Plastics Shape the Future (Hall 6 \/ C40),<\/strong><\/a><strong> <\/strong>the program will highlight pathways towards a climate-neutral plastics circular economy, with a focus on circularity and sustainable innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer is-style-small\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A day dedicated to circular economy<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The program will be moderated by Prof. Dr.-Ing. Manfred Renner, Head of Fraunhofer CCPE and Fraunhofer UMSICHT. Six Fraunhofer institutes pool their expertise in the Fraunhofer CCPE to develop, implement, and optimize processes, product,s and facilities up to application and market maturity \u2013 working with industry and public partners to drive the transformation towards a circular plastics economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI am convinced that Germany is capable of circular economy. The technological foundations are in place \u2013 what we now need is a closer link between research and application. That is exactly the aim of Circular Thursday,\u201d explains Manfred Renner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In February 2025, the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) entered into force. Its objective is to reduce packaging waste and to foster recycling through requirements such as design for recycling and mandatory recycled content. The regulation is expected to serve as a blueprint for further legislation in the automotive sector, followed by electrical and electronic products, and later construction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On stage in Hall 6 \/ C40, the fundamentals of a successful circular economy will be discussed:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>What are the recycling potentials in different industries?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Which technologies will be required?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What framework conditions are necessary to make recycling competitive?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What role can other feedstocks, such as biomass or CO\u2082 play?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer is-style-small\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>These and further questions will be debated in <em>Expert Talks<\/em> with industry and association representatives, as well as in dialogue with the audience. In the afternoon, a panel will explore perspectives for mechanical and chemical recycling under current competitive conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer is-style-small\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Working together for a sustainable future<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cCircular Thursday is an opportunity to reflect on progress made in circular economy and to discuss how we can accelerate the transformation even further,\u201d says Dr. Christine Bunte, Managing Director of Plastics Europe Deutschland. \u201cWe invite all stakeholders to join us in working on solutions that protect the environment while enabling economic success.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer is-style-small\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Program of \u201eCircular Thursday\u201c (Trade Fair D\u00fcsseldorf, 09.
