INSIGHT: Recycling chain facing deeply challenging times but investment opportunities remain

摘要

LONDON (ICIS)--On Friday 15 May, industry association Plastics Recyclers Europe (PRE) issued a statement urging the EU and member states to include recycling as one of the sectors supported by their recovery plans and to continue implementing measures under its Circular Economy umbrella because of the current pressure on the industry. PRE warned that the plastics recycling industry is closing production as a result of the crisis, citing low demand on the back of convertor closures, and the low price of virgin plastics along with decreased global activity.
