Petcore Europe “PET PACKAGING: HOW TO IMPROVE CIRCULARITY
VIA THE LATEST SORTING TECHNOLOGIES”

19th of March, 2024 - Online Webinar

Dear attendees,

Petcore Europe was delighted having you at our recent event, dedicated to the PET packaging, sorting & technologies. Objective of this educative, online webinar was to help understanding better what else could be done to improve sorting of PET packaging waste. The main questions of the event were: how to advance circularity via sorting technologies? PET Packaging Sorting: the decisive role to boost PET circularity in Europe/ Sorting: the silver bullet for Circular rPET?

PET claims to be the "best in class" plastic, but only clear beverage bottles can be considered truly circular. All other PET categories, including non-food bottles, opaque, colored or full-sleeve bottles, trays (mono and multi-layers) still need a lot of progress, and time is ticking. Circularity requires to separate these products into as many sub-streams as needed: this is called granular sorting. Latest optical sorting innovations are the key enablers for granularity, as they go far beyond the recognition of the main material.

As was announced during this online webinar, we are more than happy to share all the materials:
