Plastics Europe Enabling a sustainable future
The European Plastics Industry makes steady progress towards circularity and carbon neutrality Faster transition is crucial for the industry’s dual transformation Plastics Europe announces an increase of 20% in the use of recycled plastics in new products in 2025 compared to 2025, according to its “Plastics – The Facts 2025” annual report.
Diverging trends of plasticizers (phthalates and non
Background European chemicals management aims to protect human health and the environment from legacy and emerging contaminants. The plasticizer market changed in response to the restriction of low molecular weight (LMW) phthalate plasticizers such as Di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) due to their hazardous properties. We investigated patterns and trends of 19 regulated and emerging
2025 Facts and Figures of the European Chemical Industry
This is why the implementation of the dedicated Transition Pathway for our sector, published by the European Commission in January 2025, is vital to keep not only our industry in Europe, but also all other value chains depending on chemicals. Chemicals are everywhere, and are present in more than 90% of manufactured goods.
