ICCA

Congratulations to the newly elected INC Chair @jcordanos. ICCA supports an effective @UNEP agreement to end #plasticpollution and we encourage informal talks among governments to bridge differences ahead of the next session. Our industry stands ready to support negotiators with technical experts and resources, such as ICCA’s Plastic Additives Database (plasticscircularity.org/additives/)

Now live: the 2025 MARII Summit Report! Highlights from MARII’s October meeting in Spain, where 65 global experts came together to share knowledge, foster collaboration and advance the science on #Microplastics. marii.org/marii-summit-o…

ICCA joined global leaders at #COP30 to chart a climate-neutral future for the chemical industry. Key enablers: recycling, low-emission hydrogen, carbon storage, clean energy. The chemical industry is essential to achieving #NetZero—let’s make it happen. icca-chem.org/news/icca-cop3…

The MARII Summit on Microplastics is underway in Madrid 🌍 Experts from academia, industry & government are sharing knowledge on how to measure microplastics, trace sources like tires & textiles, evaluate if they carry chemicals, and improve risk assessment. #MARII Learn more ➡️ ow.ly/2YoR50XcEaC

🚀 ICCA has launched ow.ly/xmCn50X7Xsc — a new hub for global microplastics research. Ahead of the #MARII Summit in Madrid next week, the site helps experts connect, discover funding opportunities, and share the latest science on microplastics. Explore now ⬇️ ow.ly/xmCn50X7Xsc

ICCA is proudly celebrating 40 Years of Responsible Care! From its 1985 start in Canada to a global movement across 70+ economies, Responsible Care unites industry, governments & stakeholders to advance safety, sustainability & accountability in chemicals management. ow.ly/nua750X57Fl

ICCA welcomes the #OECD’s new guide on chemical data sharing. It offers practical solutions to improve transparency, reduce duplication, and support global compliance, which is a big step toward safer chemicals management. #ChemicalsManagement ow.ly/vpi750X4nhZ

Progress made, but not enough. The next round of negotiations must deliver a balanced, implementable @UN plastics agreement all nations can join.  Statement ➡️ bit.ly/INC5Talks

The #ICCA trade network was leading discussions at @APECSOM3, demonstrating the essential role of the chemicals industry for resilient supply chains and engaging on critical issues. Look forward to sustaining this conversation across relevant #APEC2025 workstreams!

Exciting times in Zurich! Global chemical industry leaders recently gathered for ICCA’s Spring Responsible Care Leadership Group meeting, hosted by @science_swiss. 18 associations joined for two days of impactful discussions on driving safety & sustainability. #ResponsibleCare

No one can tackle plastic pollution alone. A global agreement with national action plans, circular design, and improved infrastructure is critical to closing the waste management gap, ending pollution and scaling circularity. ➡️ plasticscircularity.org/our-positions/ #PlasticTreaty #CircularEconomy

Government-imposed plastic production caps may have unintended consequences, from higher costs to regrettable substitutions. A focus on preventing pollution is essential to prevent pollution without hindering progress. ➡️ icca-chem.org/news/new-econo… #PlasticCircularity #PlasticTreaty

A global agreement on plastics can help reduce microplastics in the environment by enabling a #CircularEconomy. Research continues to highlight the need for better data, and industry is already investing millions to address this issue.

Robust #WasteManagement infrastructure is key to preventing #PlasticPollution. The #PlasticsTreaty can provide frameworks to finance it across sectors that encourage collaboration. Learn how this can help drive a #CircularEconomy for plastics: plasticscircularity.org/?resources=fun…

ICCA’s new Plastic Additives Database enhances transparency on additives’ functions, uses, hazard classifications and much more for regulators to use to help informed decision-making on additives in plastics. Learn more: plasticscircularity.org/additives/

ICCA, @PlasticsEurope, & World Plastics have developed a decision-tree tool to help prioritize actions that reduce plastic pollution from products prone to environmental leakage. Focusing on circularity, waste management, and essentiality, this framework guides governments at the national level. Learn how this tool can support efforts to eliminate plastic pollution. 👉plasticscircularity.org/preventing-pla… #PlasticPollution #WasteManagement #PlasticCircularity

📢 ICCA launches the Plastics Additives Database! This tool enhances transparency in #ChemicalsManagement by consolidating and verifying data on plastic additives for governments & regulators to support science-based decisions globally. #PlasticAdditives 🌍🔗 ➡️ icca-chem.org/news/new-plast…

As INC-5 nears, ICCA calls for an ambitious UN Global Plastics Agreement to end plastic pollution & boost circularity. Explore tools like the Decision Tree, ICCA’s Additives Database & more to support science-based solutions. ➡️ plasticscircularity.org/?news=as-inc-5…

Community-led cleanups coupled with actions to help prevent new pollution are key to tackling #PlasticPollution! Discover how projects in South Africa and Brazil are improving the environment and economy: plasticscircularity.org/?resources=cle… #CircularEconomy

ICCA supports an enabling agreement to tackle plastic pollution and drive a circular economy. Together, we can bridge the waste management gap affecting 2.7B people globally while conserving our natural resources.
