For these reasons plastics for packaging play an important role in everyday life, however, due to the high volume and rather short usage life of plastic packaging items, they require appropriate management, especially at the end of their life. Optimization of the plastic recycling process along the value chain is therefore of the highest importance and will foster a circular economy that helps to achieve the plastic industries’ sustainability targets. LOOKING AT RECYCLING THROUGH THE LENS OF SCIENCE The CycleWorks Innovation Center is a fully functioning recycling mini plant in Milan, Italy.
