PEF, the next generation plant-based plastic with unique properties

Bio-based materials are desperately needed to replace fossil-based materials in the world’s transition to a sustainable packaging industry. The focus of this presentation will be on the polyester PEF (polyethylene furanoate). PEF is a plant-based, highly recyclable plastic, with superior performance properties, good mechanical performance and a greener production process compared to today’s widely used petroleum-based packaging materials.

The presentation will give the audience a better understanding of the polyester PEF, its value proposition in applications and the fit of PEF in the circular economy to reduce, recycle and regenerate.
