In a recent webinar hosted by industry leaders in chemical engineering and recycling technologies, experts gathered to discuss the future of circular food packaging, focusing on sustainable innovations and regulatory challenges. The event featured insights from Perstorp's Linda Zellner and Jivan Ibrahim, PETCORE Europe's Argiris Dabanlis, and NGR Recycling's David Hehenberger.

On behalf of the entire Petcore Europe Team, we would like to thank each of you for your time and active participation in the event. This year we exceeded 330 attendees at the conference and 200 at the Gala dinner, so a warm hug from Petcore Europe side!
