The Polyolefin Circular Economy Platform (PCEP) is a cross-value chain industry initiative committed to transforming the entire polyolefin system from a linear to a circular model. Bringing together converters, brand owners, recyclers, and raw material producers, PCEP works to advance the reuse, recycling, and sustainable use of polyolefins.

PCEP will host its Annual Conference 2025: Advancing circularity in polyolefins: Policy, innovation, and market readiness, which will explore how policy frameworks, technological innovation, and market dynamics are shaping the transition towards a truly circular economy for polyolefins. Participants can expect insightful discussions with policymakers, industry leaders, researchers, and innovators on the latest challenges and opportunities for advancing circularity in our sector.
