The escalating concern over the surge of plastic waste in landfills has ignited a global push toward recycling as a cornerstone of the circular plastics economy. As a critical component of the plastic life cycle, plastic recycling has become a thriving global industry. However, much of this industry depends on the effective sorting of local plastic waste, with the majority of recycled materials like PET, PE, and PP being supplied to local converters and only a small fraction reaching international markets.
In Egypt, plastic recycling is still in its early stages, with only a handful of startups beginning to tap into the vast potential of reclaiming and repurposing plastic waste that would otherwise contribute to environmental degradation.
Recognising the urgent need for innovation and collaboration, PLASTEX 2026 proudly introduces the Plastics Recycling Zone. This dedicated area is designed to empower sustainable companies and forward-thinking entrepreneurs to showcase and discuss cutting-edge recycling methods and technologies.
The Plastics Recycling Zone is your platform to drive change, share insights, and explore new business opportunities.
