Sustainability
Plastics are versatile, durable, lightweight, and incredibly adaptable, so it’s no wonder that they are used in various applications. The success of plastics comes partly from their low cost, but also from their versatility to meet highly demanding functional requirements. it is not surprising that plastics production has significantly increased over the last few decades, both in terms of amount, and in variety. Today, humans need to think about how to stop draining our planet’s resources, and, at the same time, how to stop polluting the same world with litter and rubbish.
