The 5th World Recycling Convention 2027 brings together the global recycling community in Milan, Italy. Centered on the theme, "Next-Gen Recycling: Technology, Innovation, and Partnership," the conference will showcase cutting-edge technologies, innovative circular solutions, and strategic collaborations driving the future of recycling, resource recovery, and sustainable development.
The world’s first global CCUS industry is being built — and Europe is where it starts. The Net-Zero Industry Act has assigned legally binding CO₂ storage obligations to 44 oil and gas producers. Porthos is injecting CO₂ into the North Sea. Northern Lights has issued the world’s first certified CO₂ storage certificates. CBAM is converting European carbon intensity standards into the price of market access for every industrial exporter trading with the EU. Across every link in the value chain — from capture at cement plants and steel mills, to liquid CO₂ shipping connecting dispersed emitters to offshore storage, to the North Sea’s emerging storage marketplace — capital is committing and contracts are being signed.
Future of Chemical Recycling Europe has established itself as a leading European platform dedicated to advancing the commercialisation and scalability of chemical recycling technologies. Taking place on 3–4 February 2027 in Wiesbaden, Germany, the conference will bring together senior stakeholders from across the plastics, petrochemical, waste management and recycling value chains. As highlighted throughout the agenda, Future of Chemical Recycling is designed to provide practical insights into the regulatory, commercial and operational developments shaping the transition towards a circular plastics economy.
The European Bioplastics Conference (EBC26) is an international business and industry event dedicated to bioplastics, sustainable materials and the circular economy. Scheduled for December 1–2, 2026, at the Titanic Hotel Berlin in Germany, with online participation available, the conference brings together policymakers, researchers, manufacturers, brand owners and industry professionals. Key topics include bio-based and biodegradable plastics, recycling technologies, compostability, European regulations, global market trends and sustainable product development.
CEM Europe Conference & Exhibition is the International Conference and Exhibition dedicated to air quality and emission monitoring. First held in 1997 in the United Kingdom, CEM has grown into a globally recognised meeting point for regulators, industry experts, technology providers, and operators focused on measuring, managing, and improving industrial emissions and ambient air quality.
AQE Expo welcomed 2,989 high-level attendees - air quality specialists, emissions engineers, and compliance managers - who came to compare monitoring technologies, evaluate emissions reduction solutions, and get ahead of regulatory change. That's exactly what you can expect at AQE Expo 2027 - register your interest to stay up-to-date with key developments.
We are delighted to welcome you to the 4th World Congress on Earth Science, Climate Change & Sustainability, taking place on March 24–25, 2027, in the beautiful city of Paris, France. Building on the success of previous editions, this congress will bring together earth scientists, climate researchers, environmental experts, policymakers, academicians, and industry leaders from around the world. It serves as a platform to explore the latest scientific advancements and innovative solutions to global environmental challenges.
The Annual Global Summit on Environmental Science and Green Energy 2027 is an international scientific conference organized by Vivid Global Summits, scheduled to take place from March 8–10, 2027, in Barcelona, Spain. It is a multidisciplinary event designed to bring together researchers, scientists, policymakers, industry professionals, and innovators to address pressing environmental challenges and sustainable energy solutions. The summit focuses on forward-thinking and solution-driven discussions rather than traditional approaches. Participants explore emerging topics such as climate-resilient urban systems, renewable and decentralized energy models, green hydrogen, circular economy practices, and nature-inspired engineering. The event promotes cross-disciplinary collaboration, encouraging attendees to exchange ideas and develop actionable strategies for tackling global environmental issues.
The Sustainability & Policy Forum brings together industry leaders, innovators, and policymakers to accelerate sustainable transformation across the nonwovens value chain. Reflecting today’s evolving sustainability and regulatory landscape, the 2026 edition focuses on scaling the circularity and bioeconomy, advancing material innovation, reinforcing transparency, and supporting the practical implementation of circular business models. The Forum will explore how understanding and anticipating sustainability-related regulation can help the nonwovens industry lead the circular transition, strengthen European competitiveness, and turn complexity into opportunity. Policy discussions are therefore positioned as a key enabler of sustainable progress and systems transformation.
PLASTECNICA Expo is the event where you will discover solutions shaping the future of the plastics industry. Explore advanced raw materials, intelligent automation systems, and modern processing technologies. See innovations that are revolutionizing production, mold design, and sustainable recycling in line with the principles of the circular economy.
