The Global Conclave on Plastics Recycling and Sustainability (GCPRS), organized by the All India Plastic Manufacturers’ Association (AIPMA) and the Chemicals and Petrochemicals Association (CPMA), is set to take place from July 4 to 7, 2024, at Bharat Mandapam in Pragati Maidan, Delhi. The Conclave will largely address the critical issues surrounding plastic use and the plastic recycling industry which is expected to reach $6.9 billion by 2033.
Various ministries have pledged their support for GCPRS.
The conclave comes at a pivotal time as India's plastic recycling industry is poised to reach $6.9 billion by 2033, driven by robust government initiatives and a strong informal sector recycling rate of approximately 60%.
Mr. Arvind Mehta, Chairman of AIPMA's Governing Council, along with Mr. Hiten Bheda, Chairman of GCPRS 2024, and Mr. Manish Dedhia, President of AIPMA,
emphasized the event's focus on mitigating plastic waste through improved collection, segregation, and recycling practices.
'' The expo provides an excellent opportunity for businesses to network, form collaborations, and gain insights into emerging industry trends,” said Mr. Arvind Mehta.
“The conclave will feature a CEO roundtable on July 4. On July 5 and 6, under the aegis of sustainability forum, various issues related to the ecosystem of plastic waste, recycling and sustainability will be discussed with the domain experts,” said Mr. Hiten Bheda.
Mr. Arvind D. Mehta, who is also the Chairman of Arvind Mehta Technology and Entrepreneurship Centre (AMTEC) says, “We are creating highly skilled and talented professionals for India's fast-growing plastic value chain including recycling”.
