Biopolymer Congress 2026: Presentation on Circular Economy, PPWR and Bioplastics
The demands on the plastics industry are increasing: the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR), the growing focus on the circular economy, and challenges related to recyclates and bio-based plastics are driving lasting changes across the market. At the Biopolymer Congress 2026, Patrick Zimmermann will be on site, providing practical insights into current developments and solutions as part of the “Exhibitor Pitches.”
Circular Economy – Are Recyclates and Bioplastics the Solution?
Date: June 15, 2026
Time: 4:00 PM
The presentation focuses on key questions:
- What role does the PPWR play for bioplastics and biodegradable plastics?
- How are bio-based plastics developing in the European market?
- When are biodegradable plastics useful – and when do bio-based materials offer advantages?
- How can recyclates and bioplastics be successfully combined in a circular economy?
- What challenges exist in the production and quality of PCR recyclates?
- Which measures are crucial for sustainable plastic solutions beyond regulatory requirements?
The presentation uses concrete product examples to show how sustainable materials – from recyclates to bioplastics – can be successfully implemented in a market-ready way. Take the opportunity to learn about the latest developments in PPWR, recycling, circular economy, and bio-based plastics, and to exchange ideas with us on site.
