DOW is taking part in the ASEAN Manufacturing Summit : Creating a Circular Economy for Plastics, a virtual event scheduled on December 3, 2020 from 1:30 – 5:40 pm (GMT+8). Organized by Ringier Events, this virtual summit serves as a gathering of representatives of major global companies and Southeast Asian plastics manufacturers to discuss how the plastics industry has been innovating to achieve a circular economy on plastics. 

The circular economy model is expected to redefine the future of the plastics industry. With the right technologies and materials, the plastics industry can play a major role in eliminating plastic waste through proper use, reuse and recycling to extend the life of the plastic products and protect the environment. 

At the ASEAN Manufacturing Summit : Creating a Circular Economy for Plastics, DOW representative, Ms. Eunice Ch’ng, the Asia Pacific Senior Marketing Manager for Industrial & Consumer Packaging, will discuss DOW’s latest sustainability efforts in Asia – with the launch of the first Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR) Resin, and the incorporation of bio-based Polyethylene in industrial packaging application through collaboration with its customer.
