At the NPE 2024, which took place between May 6 to 10 in Orlando, APIP – Portuguese Plastics Industry Association had the opportunity to promote the Sustainable Plastics Agenda, which is capable of leveraging the sector’s transition to a truly circular economy, contributing with even more sustainable solutions.
APIP organized several actions to promote the Sustainable Plastics Agenda, among which we highlight the following:
- a meeting with Leandro Canto, CEO of Tecnocanto – Tecnologia de Sistemas e Equipamentos Industriais, Lda, an APIP member company which has been developing automation systems, extrusion, recycling and packaging equipment for over 25 years and which is part of the Sustainable Plastics consortium in PPS 13: BIOFILM;

This Agenda, co-financed by the PRR, is the result of an initiative by APIP and is led by Logoplaste Innovation Lab. It is made up of a consortium of 39 companies and 10 non-business entities from the technological and scientific system, with the aim of covering all the segments and sub-sectors of the plastics industry and responding to the main challenges faced by the players in this new extended value chain.
