Explore the chapters to find the latest knowledge, tools and connections you’ll need to start shaping your path. There is no better time than now, and no time to waste! Learn about the circular economy, the attributes and uses of plastic materials, the current landscape and systems here in New Zealand, and the actions required to design circular plastic solutions... and then put it into action.
Attend one of the Re:Plastics circular plastics workshops.
There is a genuine desire in many businesses to transition to a lower emissions circular economy. However, navigating complexities and juggling competing priorities can make it difficult for organisations to reshape how they use plastics.
Our Re:Plastics training helps put your knowledge into action to make this possible. Join us to start aligning priorities, uncovering the plastics challenges you can tackle and define your actions for more valuable change.
With the support of MFE, we are also thrilled to offer a limited number of our training participants with co-funding. Register your interest and take the quiz to share your plastics know-how, your hopes for plastics solutions, and we’ll get you started.
