Alexander Kronimus, PhD in geology with a specialisation in environmental sciences, takes over this function from Dr Ingo Sartorius<\/strong>, who is the Association<\/a> at the end of 2021 in favour of the industry think tank BKV.<\/p>

\u201ePlastics producers are striving for the transformation to a climate-neutral circular economy. Our member companies are committed to this mission and are currently making targeted investments in the recycling of products and sustainable production processes.<\/strong> All of this is now reflected in the new name of the department,\u201c explains the new division manager.<\/p>

Alexander Kronimus also endeavours to deepen Alliances with other associations, political players, research and industry<\/strong> on. It intends to translate the latest scientific findings into recommendations for action for greater environmental and climate protection in dialogue with the association's interest groups.<\/p>

The 46-year-old has many years of experience in the German Chemical Industry Association (VCI)<\/strong> as a consultant for the energy industry.<\/p>
