Europe’s PVC industry boosts circularity, increasing recycled PVC use despite weak demand, cutting emissions and supporting sustainable manufacturing.

This polymer-based soil stabilization method shows potential for stabilizing landslide deposits in complex geological environments, such as southeastern Tibet.

PVC extends from flexible, RF-weldable coated fabrics to rigid, load-bearing profiles in buildings and flooring systems.

Hyphyn introduces enzyme-driven PVC biodegradation, achieving over 90% breakdown under ASTM D5511; however, real-world landfill validation remains pending.

Turning mixed plastic waste into hydrogen fuel and carbon nanomaterials for H₂ engines and advanced lubricant additives.

Plasticizer migration erodes performance and elevates compliance risk in PVC products. To counter this, surface engineering gives manufacturers direct, interface-level control.

Hybrid stabilizers and smart extrusion enhance PVC pipe durability, recyclability, and energy efficiency for a sustainable future.

Recycled polypropylene enters pipe systems under rising mandates, yet impurity control ultimately governs crack kinetics and service life.

PCR use doubled since 2019, yet 2025 packaging targets slip from supply, costs, and infrastructure gaps—what must change to meet 2030 goals?

Costa Rica, already a leader in medical device exports, is emerging as a key global hub for high-performance plastic components.
