The Chemical Recycling Alliance works to:
- grow awareness of the benefits of advanced plastics recycling technologies that convert post-use plastics into chemicals, fuels and other products;
- grow and scale advanced recycling into a viable industry solution; and
- demonstrate broad support for advanced recycling technologies through an expanding network of allies.
The Chemical Recycling Alliance has three membership categories to include companies that have a stake in establishing strong, advanced plastics recycling and recovery solutions.
