Growing pressure to increase plastic recycling and extract more value from waste streams is driving change in the North American recycling industry. Chemical recycling is being developed as an alternative to mechanical recycling and can produce virgin-equivalent, food-contact-safe materials for a range of end markets.
The sector continues to face challenges, including high capital costs, questions around economic viability, and broader market pressures. At the same time, interest in chemical recycling remains strong, and the number of projects under development continues to increase.
Chemical Recycling 2026 will take place in Houston, Texas. The event will focus on strategies to advance chemical recycling in North America, the current operating environment, and approaches to support growth across the supply chain.
Ketjen is proud to sponsor this event.
