PETCORE EUROPE Thermoforms Working Group was launched in June 2015, followed by a number of events such as: online workshops on Recycling PET Thermoforms in March 2015 and in December 2021 and also, Thermoforms Conference 2023 in Italy.

Thermoforms Working Group comprises more than 70 companies & organisations, including key players from industry: Brand Owners, Retailers, EPR´s, Waste Management, Recyclers, Converters, Raw Materials, Additives and Equipment Manufacturers. 

The objective of this physical event is to promote thermoforms collection & recycling and specifically tray to tray circularity. We will also showcase PETCORE EUROPE Thermoforms WG’s initiatives: Tray Circularity Evaluation Platform (TCEP) and Functional Barrier (FB) task Force.

The first day of the event will feature presentations from high-level speakers from the European Commission that will explain their goals & expectations for PET trays. Also, we will have interventions from the major experts in the field of thermoforms, followed by panel discussions with guests from the PET industry: E&ACT, KOR, KP Films, Sulayr, Dow, Tomra, Corepla and many others.

The participants will have an exclusive networking opportunity in combination with extraordinary historic sightseeing in Granada. On the second day PETCORE EUROPE will organize the Alhambra Visit - UNESCO World Heritage Site. Entering this architectural complex will fully immerse you in the Andalusian culture. Through its gardens, palaces, towers and gates, you can transport yourself to a time of great splendour and connect with a civilization that left its mark on the city in a decisive way to become what it is today. ​ ​

NB. Due to recently increased safety restrictions, the entrance to the Alhambra is nominative. That means we will need to provide full name & ID number (or passport number) of each attendee. Thus, we would like to ask kindly all the participants that would wish to visit the palace on the 26^th June to send the requested details to the following recipients: [email protected] and [email protected] and [email protected].

📢 PETCORE EUROPE would like to specify that this information will be collected only for this purpose. Also, PETCORE EUROPE would like to encourage you to provide these details by the 15th May, the latest, otherwise we wont be able to guarantee your access to the Alhambra.

Right after we will have Plant Visit to one of the most modern Sorting Centers in Europe - The Granada Ecopower Plant https://bit.ly/4cIr28D. This complex consists of the following facilities: a mechanical-biological treatment plant, an environmental classroom, a leachate treatment plant and a waste landfill.
