A&S and the Circular economy – a member’s case study on recycling (Part of the BASA programme at CHEMUK 2021)

About this presentation

It considers aspects such as extended producer responsibility, a demand for zero avoidable waste on construction sites and a life cycle approach for manufacturers of adhesives and sealants.
