Throughout 70 years, the production of #plastic increased from 1.5 million tonnes in 1950 to 368 million tonnes in 2019. The European project @PolyCE_EU presents the Practical Guidelines focused on #CircularDesign to improve #WEEE plastics #sustainability: bit.ly/3u0Y0dK

Proud to share a book that we've contributed to - Design FOR and FROM recycling bit.ly/designfce
Available free to download. Packed full of facts about the plastics recycling industry + practical guidelines for designers.
You can find us on p53

First session takeaway: "Plastics are v complex from cling film to kids toys - so using terms like 'recyclable' are ambiguous and misleading - there's a need for more clarity, improved standards and policies that effectively reduce plastic waste and increase recycling potential
Professor Kim Ragaert and Gianni Vyncke from @ResearchUGent discuss the process of turning 30MT of #PlasticWaste to 10MT of #recycled content in today's workshop on #CircularDesign. Watch this space today for our guidelines FOR and FROM recycling.

Our latest product using #CircularDesign principles is called @FundWaste with sensors to manage recycling + reduce waste. It's designed using 100% #recycled plastic so it's FOR and FROM #recycling. In collaboration with @PolyCE_EU

At #PRSEVirtual, Roberta Bernascosi from @WhirlpoolCorp, sheds a light on 🗝️ requirements for high-quality #recycledplastic performance in white goods, such as:
👉Cross-contamination of waste streams
👉Standardization & re-compounding
👉Certifications

.@tjfeenstra, @PezyGroup, shares insights on how to accelerate the uptake of #recyclates from post-consumer #recycledplastic. Starting with design from recycling to #DesignForRecycling is 🗝️

It is International #ewasteday today! As the focus is on education this year we have an important lesson from our young experts:
#passiton for reuse
#passiton for repair
#passiton for recycling
...and pass the message on too!

Less than 1%: the amount of recycled plastics from e-waste is currently present in new electronic products on the market. Let's change that! Your choice matters!

“Even countries with a formal e-waste management system in place are confronted with relatively low collection and recycling rates” - article by @REUTERSFARGE and Neha Arora for @Reuters on the UN Global E-waste Monitor, released today.

"Only 17.4% of 2019’s #Ewaste was collected and recycled. In fact, e-waste collection has declined since 2016, when the collection rate was 20%."
