TOMRA CIRCULAR ECONOMY
TOMRA Circular Economy (TCE) was established in January 2019 to capitalize on market opportunities emerging from a circular economy framework. As the only company that can offer a holistic solution for waste management, TOMRA is excellently positioned for this fast growing and future-proof market, as the world transitions to a circular economy. TCE will shape the market and thus change the competitive landscape. With its leading position in collection and sorting product technology and recognized process knowledge, TCE will work to position TOMRA as an essential strategic partner by collaborating with key business players across the entire plastics recycling value chain. Our target is to develop new methods, processes, technologies and business models, aiming at accelerating the transition to a truly circular economy and thus driving new growth for the two business divisions. TCE’s long-term focus will lead to new business opportunities beyond today’s business through exploration of disruptive technologies and digitalization of the value chain.

Avantium is an innovation-driven pioneer in the emerging industry of renewable and sustainable chemistry. We offer unique technological solutions to address the global need to reduce plastic waste, tackle climate change and transition into a circular, sustainable bio-based economy. We develop and commercialise innovative chemistry technologies for the production of chemicals and materials based on renewable feedstock instead of fossil resources for a wide range of consumer goods such as plastics and textiles. Our two lead products are FDCA and Ray plantMEG™. Together, they enable the production of the plastic PEF: a novel, plant-based and fully recyclable plastic material with a powerful combination of environmental and performance features and with a wide range of applications – packaging, textiles, film, and many more.
Ray plantMEG™ is not only an important chemical building block for PEF, but Ray plantMEG™, along with PTA, can also produce bio-PET, creating great potential for existing PET markets. Fossil-based MEG, used to produce conventional PET, is a core component for everyday products such as plastic bottles, packaging, clothing, and furniture. With consumers making more environmentally conscious choices, the use of Ray plantMEG™ will provide brands with a sustainable, recyclable, and innovative alternative.
We believe in a fossil-free world. Let’s go!

Open Chemistry (IF – 1.512), published by De Gruyter, is a peer-reviewed, open access journal that publishes original research, reviews and short communications in the fields of chemistry in an ongoing way. Our central goal is to provide a hub for researchers working across all subjects to present their discoveries, and to be a forum for the discussion of the important issues in the field.
At the event we strive not only to bring you to the same location at the same time as your customers/suppliers/peers, we strive to ensure you meet face-to-face with each and every one of your target contacts and to provide you with the time you need to have multiple unhurried conversations with them and build a lasting business relationship:
- A pre-event informal introduction the evening before the conference
- A minimum of five hours’ networking built into the two day conference agenda
- A networking grid which enables you to make your target contacts aware you are looking for them
- The option to join either social drinks or dinner during the evening of Day One
- ACI’s on-site team will assist you in locating your hard-to-find target contacts & make face-to-face introductions
Of course, if there is anybody you are unable to meet over the two days, ACI’s event team will do their best to initiate contact after the event.
