Endless ideas for an endless circular economy

As a result of the Big Bang, all the particles of matter that make up the universe today, were created. Nothing has been added, nothing has been lost. The universe always forms new structures from this particle kit and lets them disintegrate again. Plants, people, planets.

In the plastics industry, we are not yet as good as the universe. That’s why we at Evonik aim to enable companies in the plastics industry to establish an efficient cycle. By sharing our knowledge. By supplying the required chemicals. And by making the right contacts.

In our case studies, you can see examples of how diverse, simple, and sustainable our solutions are. If you would like to find out more, you will find an expert contact at the end of each case study.
