About our management
Who steers what at Flanders Circular?
The Chemistry/Plastics strategic agenda focuses on a set of actions, which help solve the main barriers on the way to a circular chemistry and plastics. In doing so, we focus on actions that we can only tackle together, with multiple parties.
Our strategic agenda focuses on chemicals, mixtures and materials such as plastics. Increased recycling of plastics is clearly a key theme within the strategic agenda for the first two years. Other important themes are making the raw materials used more sustainable, ecodesign of (consumer) products containing plastics/chemicals and industrial symbiosis.
essenscia and OVAM are the initiators for the chemistry/plastics strategic agenda.
VLAIO actively supports.
The Starting charter strategic agenda Chemicals/Plastics is a summary of the trajectory that ran from January 2021 to April 2022
