PLASTICS (Plastics Industry Association)

Thank you to @NAPCOR_PET and the House Recycling Caucus for hosting today's Capitol Hill lunch briefing on PET recycling and the circular economy. Conversations like these are exactly what it takes to expand access to recycling across the country. #Sustainability #Recycling

Interest rates, tariff uncertainty, and trade policy continue to shape the road ahead for U.S. manufacturing. 🏭 #Plastics #Manufacturing #Economy plasticsindustry.org/blog/plastics-…

Advanced recycling has been in the news a lot lately—see for yourself why it’s becoming the future of plastics recycling in the United States! Follow @RecyclingisRe to discover more resources like this on the evolving infrastructure of recycling in American manufacturing. #AdvancedRecycling #Sustainability #CircularEconomy

That's a (plastic) wrap on FlexForum 2026! Afternoon sessions explored how AI is reshaping flexible film operations, new end uses for recycled film, and navigating trade policy. A big thank you to all who spoke and all who attended! #PlasticsIndustry #PlasticFilm #FlexibleFilm

Kicking off the final day at FlexForum 2026, Chief Economist Perc Pineda, PhD, took the stage to break down the economic forces shaping the flexible plastics and polyethylene films sector in 2026. #PlasticFilm #PlasticsIndustry #Economics

Good afternoon from Fort Myers! ☀️ FlexForum kicked off its Tuesday programming with a lineup of panels highlighting flexible packaging sustainability, the state of recycling, and what's next for flexible film policy. #FlexibleFilm #Packaging #PlasticsIndustry #Sustainability

.@EPA Administrator @LeeMZeldin continues to show strong leadership on advanced recycling. Expanding recycling infrastructure, including advanced recycling, strengthens U.S. manufacturing, supports jobs, and keeps plastics within a circular economy. #Recycling #AdvancedRecycling #Manufacturing

.@LeeMZeldin is right: scaling advanced recycling is both an environmental and economic opportunity. Supporting all recycling technologies strengthens U.S. manufacturing, expands infrastructure, increases recycling rates, and keeps more materials in productive use. #CircularEconomy #Manufacturing #Recycling

Congratulations to @PIThermoforming on winning the 2026 Sustainability Innovation in End-of-Life Award! #CircularEconomy #HealthcarePackaging #PlasticsRecycling #SustainabilityInAction #DesignForCircularity

The plastics industry supports 1.5M American jobs & $550B in economic output—but that leadership runs on skilled workers. We commend Chairman @RepWalberg for advancing the Stronger Workforce for America Act (H.R. 8210). Full Statement: plasticsindustry.org/newsroom/plast…
