Jens Kathmann, Secretary-General of SCS, commented:“SCS extends a warm welcome to EUMEPS. The drive that the EPS industry has shown in contributing to the circularity of styrenics is impressive. We look forward to deepening teamwork with EUMEPS across all of SCS’ activity, from collection and sorting to scaling up recycling technology.”

Jürgen Lang, General Manager of EUMEPS said: “We are very pleased to join SCS. EPS is easily recyclable, and it is already widely collected for recycling in a number of countries across Europe. We are committed to the European Commission’s 2025 plastics recycling goals. Our participation in the SCS value chain initiative will strengthen the activities of both organisations towards full circularity, in particular around collection and sorting.”
