Whitepaper: Pathways to sustainable plastics
We have no choice but to keep producing new plastic. To do this in a sustainable way, we need to replace fossil carbon as a raw material with renewable (CO2 or biobased) carbon. This seems simple. However, deciding which sustainable alternative to use is not. Discover how TNO guides companies in making plastic production fully sustainable with a 3-step plan.
3-step plan to biobased plastic
TNO has developed a 3-step plan that allows companies to choose the best route to a sustainable alternative for the nine most commonly used fossil-based plastics. From PP in car parts and PET in bottles to PA in clothing. This supports companies in selecting the most sustainable and economically viable option, enabling them to lead in innovation and sustainability.

New routes for sorting and composite separation
Plastic waste streams are becoming more complex, and current sorting and recycling technologies can no longer keep up. The R&D Hub for Plastic Waste Processing of the Global Impact Coalition (GIC), led by TNO, brings together partners to research new, realistic technological routes.
