Boosting the circular use of plastics

Several EU funded projects were invited to make presentations of their project during these conferences. SOL-REC2 was presented by Pascal Négré as Coordinator.

Prior to a potential participation to the 2022 edition of Rimini based Ecomondo exhibition, the EU agencies invited several projects working on Plastic circularity and recycling to Showcase our project within the “Cluster meeting: H2020 & Horizon Europe projects contributing to the EU Plastics Strategy"

In order to prepare the participation to Ecomondo, the EU agencies have organized a webinar to help all project coordinators and participants to prepare their presentation

After the individual presentations of the plastic related projects, Pascal Négré organised within Ecomondo week a dinner with the other projects leaders and suggested the organisation of a Circular Plastics Cluster and started the preliminary discussions

To help the participants of the newly created Cluster we were all suggested to benefit the offers of the HRB able to support our dissemination and communication actions.

The first common participation to an event was the attendance to AMI plastics show in Essen where our Cluster had a common stand exhibiting our own projects and manned by the representatives on site.

During this new edition of Rimini based Ecomondo, SOL-REC2 had a triple action on site: a shared booth also attended by 5 other Cluster projects, a presentation of SOL-REC2 main objectives and technical issues presented by Pascal Négré and George Theodosopoulos at CIMPA’s final workshop, and a one-day attendance on a SOL-REC2 desk within the large stand of the European Union dedicated to the Circular economy innovation.
