Rethinking Materials

With an emphasis on packaging and performance materials, the Rethinking Materials virtual summit will provide pivotal insights into the challenges facing major consumer goods brands and retailers, producers, converters, manufacturers and technology providers in tackling plastic waste both upstream and downstream.

 

It will also explore the viability of new technologies and ‘next generation’ materials; routes to scaling up; and cross-sector applications in packaging, food-service, personal care, fashion and more.

 

As part of those two days packed with intelligent debate and targeted networking with business leaders from across the value chain, Markus Pfanner, VP Sustainability, will join the opening plenary ‘Engaging New Solutions to Meet Sustainability Commitments’ (May 19, 10.10 am EST).
