Artificial intelligence and digitalisation have changed the world permanently and the plastics industry is no longer imaginable without them. Digitalisation, AI and machine learning are creating new business fields, complexity is increasing and additional requirements demand collaborative work in networks. This not only changes our workflows and processes, but also requires everyone to think ahead and be open.
It is precisely this openness that is also indispensable when it comes to the circular economy. Only through an efficient circular economy can plastics realise their potential in tackling important challenges, such as the energy transition, digitalisation or electrification, without harmful effects on the climate and the environment. Technological innovations, recycling-friendly product design and new ways to use recyclates on a large scale for high-quality plastic products are the key to making the circular economy sustainable.
Contents of the e-magazine
We have researched for our readers and summarised the most important and latest trends on the topics of the circular economy, and climate protection in our e-magazine in the run-up to Fakuma 2023.
But strategic corporate decisions also play an important role in today's world. We have researched for you, for example, how to counteract the shortage of skilled workers or how to make the right production decisions. As mentioned at the beginning, digital transformation and artificial intelligence are opening up new opportunities for networking within value chains. In this e-magazine, we therefore also give our readers a comprehensive overview of digitalised and energy-efficient plastics technologies. sl
