WASHINGTON (April 23, 2020) – The American Chemistry Council (ACC) and More Recycling (MORE) are pleased to announce a new website to accelerate end market development for plastics. The Recycling Market Development Platform is endorsed by the U.S. EPA, the Northeast Recycling Council (NERC), the Carolina Recycling Association (CRA) and the US Green Building Council's Zero Waste Program (TRUE). This free, open-source website was developed by MORE with ACC as a founding partner.
“We’re pleased to introduce this tool to the marketplace,” said Keith Christman, managing director of plastics markets at ACC. “It’s an important platform to help equip stakeholders throughout the value chain with resources to accelerate the expansion of end markets for recycled plastics.”
The tool is available to preview on
www.circularityinaction.com. All features on the site will be available on April 30. A free webinar, “The Recycling Markets Outlook Forum,” will familiarize participants with the platform’s resources and demonstrate how to use them. The webinar, also on
April 30, is hosted by National Recycling Coalition (NRC), U.S. EPA and RRS Renew.
Brand owners, retailers, packaging designers, local and state government representatives, and recycling industry professionals can register for the webinar
here.
The Recycling Market Development Platform will be managed by the NRC with promotional support from the U.S. EPA.
