The transition to a CLIC® economy means moving towards systems that are clean, lean, inclusive and circular. At LOIM, we believe that profound change is required in three key systems, including how we make and use materials in order to transition to a more circular model: nowhere is this more apparent than in plastics.

Today, plastic is too often designed for single use, ends up in landfill or the ocean, and causes negative environmental outcomes. What could a circular model for plastics look like? Explore a day in the life of plastic waste today.

Then discover the world of tomorrow’s plastic value chain in a circular model.
