las barreras que deben superarse para avanzar hacia un sistema europeo de los pl\u00e1sticos circular, neutro en carbono y sostenible. Este di\u00e1logo debe reconocer el papel estrat\u00e9gico de la industria de los pl\u00e1sticos en el logro de los objetivos de la transici\u00f3n verde europea.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3 pilares estrat\u00e9gicos para la transici\u00f3n<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">La hoja de ruta se articula en tres pilares estrat\u00e9gicos para impulsar la transici\u00f3n.

Entre ellos se incluyen el fomento de modelos de negocio circulares, el avance del reciclado mec\u00e1nico y qu\u00edmico y el aumento de la producci\u00f3n de pl\u00e1sticos a partir de biomasa y carbono capturado. Para acelerar esta transici\u00f3n, es fundamental garantizar el acceso a materias primas circulares y promover la demanda y la inversi\u00f3n en soluciones circulares.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-jade-color has-text-color\">Hacer posible un ciclo de vida de los pl\u00e1sticos con emisiones cero netas<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alcanzar la neutralidad clim\u00e1tica en todo el ciclo de vida de los pl\u00e1sticos requiere avanzar en \u00e1mbitos clave como la eficiencia energ\u00e9tica, el uso de combustibles bajos en carbono, la electrificaci\u00f3n de los procesos con energ\u00eda de bajas emisiones y el despliegue de tecnolog\u00edas de captura y almacenamiento de carbono. Para ello, ser\u00e1 esencial asegurar el acceso a energ\u00eda competitiva y baja en carbono, garantizar unas condiciones de competencia equilibradas a nivel mundial, reducir las emisiones asociadas a la transformaci\u00f3n de los pl\u00e1sticos y minimizar la incineraci\u00f3n de residuos pl\u00e1sticos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-jade-color has-text-color\">Fomentar el uso sostenible de los pl\u00e1sticos<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Garantizar que los pl\u00e1sticos se producen y utilizan de manera segura para las personas y el medio ambiente es un elemento clave de la transici\u00f3n hacia la sostenibilidad.

Estas medidas incluyen la colaboraci\u00f3n con los distintos actores de la cadena de valor, la gesti\u00f3n responsable de los aditivos, la prevenci\u00f3n de la p\u00e9rdida de granza durante la producci\u00f3n y el impulso de proyectos conjuntos para mejorar el conocimiento y evitar fugas al medio ambiente.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1094\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/plasticseurope.org\/es\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/09\/Roadmap-pilares-estrategicos.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12931\" style=\"aspect-ratio:4\/3;object-fit:contain\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plasticseurope.org\/es\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/09\/Roadmap-pilares-estrategicos.jpg 1094w, https:\/\/plasticseurope.org\/es\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/09\/Roadmap-pilares-estrategicos-300x296.jpg 300w, https:\/\/plasticseurope.org\/es\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/09\/Roadmap-pilares-estrategicos-1024x1011.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/plasticseurope.org\/es\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/09\/Roadmap-pilares-estrategicos-768x758.jpg 768w, https:\/\/plasticseurope.org\/es\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/09\/Roadmap-pilares-estrategicos-851x840.jpg 851w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1094px) 100vw, 1094px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer is-style-large\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-gray-color has-text-color\">Un documento vivo<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">En 2021, Plastics Europe encarg\u00f3 el informe <a href=\"https:\/\/plasticseurope.org\/changingplasticsforgood\/reshaping-plastics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ReShaping Plastics: Pathways to a Circular, Climate Neutral Plastics System in Europe<\/a>, que inclu\u00eda recomendaciones para avanzar hacia los objetivos de circularidad y neutralidad clim\u00e1tica de la Uni\u00f3n Europea para 2050.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Plastics Transition<\/strong> proporciona un marco de actuaci\u00f3n, establece hitos para 2030 e incorpora indicadores que permiten medir los avances, identificar obst\u00e1culos y encontrar soluciones para seguir progresando.
