The event is organized by :
11-12 JUNE 2024
MUSEO STORICO ALFA ROMEO - Arese ( Milan , Italy )
Packaging & Recycling 2024 is the forum dedicated to the packaging and recycling industry in Italy , the event that no operator in the sector can miss .
Packaging & Recycling 2024 will take place in the prestigious setting of Museo Storico Alfa Romeo in Arese on 11 and 12 June . Now at its seventh edition , Packaging & Recycling 2024 is dedicated to plastic packaging and its lifecycle , from design to post-consumer recycling . In a context in which public and media attention is increasingly focused on plastics , Packaging & Recycling 2024 stands out for its freshness and quality . In this field , the ability to keep pace with times plays a decisive role for packaging manufacturers , recyclers and technology suppliers looking for new solutions capable of combining high performance with respect for the environment . Packaging & Recycling 2024 will see the participation of top figures from the world of research , universities and major brand owners who will illustrate their strategies in the field of packaging and the evolution of consumer preferences . In the past editions , a number of leading companies took part in the event such as Coop , Ferrarelle , Ferrero , Galbani , Heinz ,
Henkel , Nestlé and many others .

CIRCULAR ECONOMY
The future of polymer packaging materials is closely linked to their ability to meet the criteria of the Circular Economy and environmental sustainability which involves the transformation of waste into a valuable resource .
POLICIES AND REGULATIONS
The European Union ’ s Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation ( PPWR ) and the United Nations ’ decisions against plastic pollution can significantly change the regulatory environment in which companies operate . It is therefore essential to know their content .
MATERIALS
Lightweight , versatile and environment-friendly , plastic materials have always been the focus of food and industrial packaging , in a process of evolution that never stops , where the role of biodegradable and compostable polymers is growing steadily .
TECHNOLOGIES
Extrusion , blow moulding , thermoforming and other technologies allow increasingly efficient and performing machining processes . The recycling systems “ close the loop ”, giving new value to materials .
