What will
the polyolefins market look like after mergers and acquisitions in the industry?
How will China’s growth in polypropylene
production affect future imports? What are the implications of European
chemical regulations? How are consumer preferences and the influence of
sustainability impacting the industry? How
will these emerging topics affect your business?
These
questions and much more were discussed in detail at this year’s World
Polyolefins Conference.
The changing outlook of polyolefin capacity and global shifts
in polymer use make 2019 an important year for the industry. Producers, converters, traders and the rest
of the value chain around the globe are seizing opportunities ahead of new
supply coming on stream, changes in chemical regulation and changes in consumption
of polymers. With specific insight into new and rising topics in the industry
such as research into single layer polyethylene film, Asian polyolefin growth,
mergers within the industry, product diversification and more, this event will
provide a clear understanding of the current opportunities in the industry.
The post-conference forum with the theme of Supporting a polyolefin circular economy covered topics that have gained significance following a rising demand for
recycled polyolefins, the European Commission’s Plastics Strategy and further
initiatives, and industry focus on creating products with better design for
recyclability.
