Our actions
For over 100 years, science and innovation have been the heart of what we do. It is what allows us to provide the solutions demanded by an ever-changing world.
As the challenges we face have become more critical, we are accelerating our contribution to the sustainable production and safe use of plastics, whilst ensuring they continue their positive contribution to healthy societies and growing economies as well as reducing GHG emissions.
Through the work of our members, industry initiatives and campaigns in partnership with our value chain, we are all taking tangible actions towards a sustainable plastics future.
