“In 5-10 years’ time we could very well look back at this period of time as a turning point: as a value chain we have to act and manage the end-of-life of our products in order to preserve the tremendous value of polyolefins for society. PCEP is essential to achieve this.”

“Sustainability is all about assuming responsibility. By efficiently using natural resources and protecting the environment, we contribute to safeguarding our planet for generations to come. Building a circular economy for polyolefins shows that in the future, growth will be generated from intelligent value creation – not from an overexploitation of resources. At PCEP, our goal is to actively drive this change process together with our partners and stakeholders.”

Regulatory and External Affairs Manager, Ineos Services Belgium


"I dedicated 35 years of my professional life mostly to polyolefin, contributing to the development of a number of applications which bring so many benefits to our society. The polyolefin industry, however, will not survive the challenges of resource efficiency and environmental protection more generally without a radical change. Circularity is an essential part of the answers to those challenges. It is a paradigm shift, and it clearly necessitates a complete value chain involvement. That is why I am proud to be a member of the PCEP Board, on behalf of the polyolefin producers."

Deputy Director European Public Affairs – Chemicals, Total


“Moving to a circular business model in a scalable way requires the full involvement and dedication of all actors in the whole value chain. As circular solutions are not necessarily the same across the various families of polymers, it became appropriate to create a value chain association fully dedicated to polyolefins. I am delighted to serve as PCEP Board member in our quest to resolve together with public authorities the current societal challenges. Beyond the great benefits during their use phase, plastics remain too valuable to be thrown away.”

Venetia Spencer

"Polyolefins are amazing highly versatile materials; the most widely used family of plastics, they are fully recyclable. What we need now is to make sure they are reused or recycled, and to create a market for that recycled material. PCEP’s members are committed to that goal. It is exciting to help drive the value chain forward on this journey towards circularity."
