ExxonMobil will demonstrate sustainable solutions that incorporate mechanically recycled content with ExxonMobil performance polymers to help maintain/boost performance, and mono-material structures that are designed to help create products that are more easily recycled[1], at the booths of industry-leading machine manufacturers (OEM) at K2022. For full details and directions to these OEM collaborations, visitors should visit ExxonMobil’s Information Hub (North Entrance #11).

In addition to the Association for Plastic Recyclers (APR) recognition in North America in 2021, SimpliCycle is now recognized by RecyClass in Europe as fully compatible in the PET, HDPE, and PP recycling streams

Stora Enso’s new production site for cross-laminated timber (CLT) in Ždírec, the Czech Republic, was inaugurated today. Following a EUR 79 million investment, the new CLT site is one of the most modern in the world, supporting Stora Enso’s strategy of growth within wooden building solutions. With the new site, Stora Enso’s CLT production capacity will grow substantially to meet the increasing demand for sustainable, cost-effective and renewable building materials.

Cepi has unveiled today the update of its European harmonised recyclability test method, developed in collaboration with actors from the entire paper value chain, including specialised testing laboratories. Essential to the project was the support of 4evergreen members, which over a 9-month period carried out a battery of tests that informed the improvements of the method and the development of three technical annexes.

Research shows that people see climate change as a primary threat - on a par with the ongoing financial crisis

Survey of 26,205 people across 28 markets suggests that despite increasing climate impacts, climate optimism has grown to over 48%
Awareness of climate change leads people from around the world to adopt more sustainable lifestyles

Deforestation is responsible for nearly 15% of global CO₂ emissions. Every year, 10 million hectares of tropical forest are lost – if we do not halt this by 2030, it will be impossible to limit global warming to 1.5°C
Nature-based solutions, including forest conservation and restoration, can provide one-third of the mitigation needed to reach this climate target
Funding for nature-based solutions needs to triple from $133 billion per year today to $400 billion by 2030, to meet climate change and biodiversity targets, with scope for private finance to increase its share of just $18 billion per year, according to the UN
One approach that channels incentives to forest governments and communities to avoid deforestation across entire landscapes – known as “jurisdictional REDD+” – offers companies the opportunity to make significant contributions to preserving the world’s forests while ridding their own supply chains of deforestation

3M is expanding its climate technology portfolio with green hydrogen and low-carbon intensity energy separation solutions

Innovative 3M climate solutions have potential to deliver scalable impact in critical industries
3M demonstrates power of people and science to create a bright future with its Climate Innovation Center exposition during Climate Week NYC (Sept. 20-22)

The desire for efficiency and sustainability characterises the plastics industry and presents it with ever new challenges. How can manufacturing and decoration processes be optimised? Which sustainable raw materials can be used, and with which technologies are industry and consumers approaching the circular economy? All these questions are in focus at K 2022. At the leading international trade fair for the plastics industry from 19 to 26 October 2022 in Düsseldorf, the industry will come together to present its latest solutions.
