For JB Ecotex, participating in the Plastic Recycling Conference and Trade Show 2019 was more than an industry event, it was a reminder of why recycling matters beyond business metrics. Held on World Environment Day, the conference brought together a global community of recyclers, policymakers, and innovators determined to redefine how plastic waste is managed.
As a plastic recycler and rPET producers, JB Ecotex joined discussions on post-consumer recycled (PCR) content, extended producer responsibility (EPR), and the emerging role of chemical recycling in complementing traditional systems. The event offered insight into how collaboration between recyclers, brands, and governments can accelerate circular economy goals.
Walking through the exhibition halls filled with new recycling technologies, it became clear that progress lies in shared intent. The conference reinforced JB Ecotex’s commitment to advancing sustainable recovery systems and turning every discarded bottle into a resource that supports a cleaner planet.
