In connection with the forthcoming adoption of the regulation on packaging and packaging waste, the branch Association Polymers is organizing a discussion on the role of recycling. The quality collection and recycling of waste is the principal way towards meeting the EU goals connected with packaging waste and using it in the recycled content, the Association’s chair Tsvetanka Todorova says.
