Recycled polymer markets are facing a period of rapid change. As regulatory pressure intensifies globally, understanding how new rules will reshape supply chains and pricing is critical, especially with major policy changes on the horizon globally.
Join Argus experts and guest speakers from the plastic waste trading industry for a forward-looking discussion on the impact of the Waste Shipment Regulation (WSR) changes, which are set to shake up plastic waste trade between Europe and southeast Asia in 2026.
This session explores how policy, feedstock availability, and regional competitiveness are evolving across Europe and Asia. We’ll also touch on what to expect in 2026, and how we have factored these changes into our Recycled Polymers price forecast, helping you plan ahead with confidence.
