PETCORE EUROPE has established its PET Thermoforms Working Group in June 2015, following a Workshop on Recycling PET Thermoforms in March 2015. It comprises 40 companies and organisations including key players from industry and waste management. The goal is to increase the market share of PET in thermoforms in Europe by providing sustainable and reliable end-of-life solutions for their effective recycling.
