Enabling a sustainable future

The Plastics Transition

K-Fair Sessions 2022

Everything is possible if you collaborate, if you share, and if you then have a joint goal.

Circular Plastics and Net zero by 2050

The plastics industry has said a lot about how it's ready to move.

Plastic needs its place in the circular economy.

Our theme at "K" this year is making the change real.

The Plastics Industry has a future in Europe.

My vision and the vision of my company is that carbon neutrality is non-negotiable.

I am confident technology wise. We still need to do a lot in the pre-treatment of waste.

Europe needs to manage its own waste, high quality materials should be produced in Europe & recycled in Europe.

Chemical recycling is not a silver bullet. Both chemical recycling and mechanical recycling play their role. We need top to bottom system changes.

Renewable energy is the basis of everything & of electrification.

TotalEnergies is committed to putting 30% circular polymers on the market by 2030.

The transition to circular economy and climate neutrality has both challenges and opportunities and is multi-layered.
