Editorial
readers
As I am writing these lines we are suffering (or enjoying) outside
temperatures in Germany of 40°C. In a TV show, someone asked:
“Is this still summer or is it climate change”. As a matter of fact,
Germany saw only 10 days at 40° since the beginning of weather
records.
As we probably all agree on the latter, it is another proof that we
are doing the right thing reporting about non-fossil plastics in this
magazine.
You’ll find again a number of articles on biobased plastics, as
well as on the topics of CCU and advanced recycling – in line
with our expanded objective on Renewable Carbon Plastics.
In addition, one focus topic of this issue is Blow Moulding
/ Bottle Applications. Here we have some articles on plastic
materials for blow moulding as well as on machinery and
recycling. The topic is rounded off with a Basics article an
FDCA and PEF and our 10 years ago review.

The other highlight is Polyurethanes / Elastomers, where
we report about biobased polyols and isocyanates, but also about
advanced recycling technologies.
Let’s now look at the events ahead. After a successful purely digital
bio!PAC in March and a hybrid 7 th PLA World Congress in Munich in May
we are now looking forward to this year’s Bioplastics Business Breakfast
during the K-show in October. Most probably it will be a hybrid event too,
as is it to be expected that still many travel restrictions exist. Corona isn’t
over yet.
Anyhow, we also look forward to the K-show itself. We will certainly
publish a comprehensive show preview in the next issue, along with the
much-liked show guide. If you’d like us to publish your product review or
participate in the show guide with small ads, just let us know.
