The «CYCLEtalk» – our information and exchange platform
As part of the realCYCLE project, we organized regular CYCLEtalks for registered interested parties, in which we presented the latest project developments, presented new findings and discussed new questions. The eighth CYCLEtalk is dedicated on the one hand to new projects of realcycle GmbH, on the other hand we were able to win exciting speakers with inputs from our environment. There are exciting insights into the food approval of secondary plastics, the life cycle assessment of chemical plastic recycling processes, and the Swiss and European legislation. In addition, we bring two exciting news to the work in the network. We are especially pleased to welcome the participants of the APPOLL Forum at CYCLEtalk. The APPOLL Forum has achieved its main goal of building a platform that brings together and networks players with a focus on plastic. With the transfer of the APPOLL Forum to realcycle – and thus to the CYCLEtalks – the focus is broadened and raised from the current level of detail (plastic pollution) to the system level of a sustainable circular economy. We cordially welcome the APPOLL Community and look forward to the joint journey and cooperation.
