Description

Join Chris Layton, Director of Circular Policy Strategy at Eastman, as he unveils Eastman's groundbreaking strides in sustainability through the world's largest material-to-material molecular recycling facility.

Located in Tennessee, this facility marks a transformative approach to handling hard-to-recycle polyester waste that currently ends up in landfills or incinerators. 

Explore how Eastman's innovative methanolysis-based molecular recycling process transforms challenging materials—like colored PET bottles, opaque milk bottles, polyester textiles, and more—into durable Eastman Renew materials. This breakthrough not only reduces environmental impact but also combats climate change by notably cutting greenhouse gas emissions compared to traditional methods.

Join us for an engaging session that not only redefines recycling but also provides actionable insights for industry leaders to drive sustainability in their companies.
