Sustainability interview with Daniel Römhild: Focus on PCR

Hannes Stadt had the opportunity to speak to Daniel Römhild from WIS Kunststoffe GmbH and find out what makes his company a champion in the plastics industry. 
Daniel emphasizes that WIS Kunststoffe focuses strongly on 𝗣𝗼𝘀𝘁-𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘂𝗺𝗲𝗿-𝗥𝗲𝗰𝘆𝗰𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 and develops high-quality recycling solutions. 

He is particularly proud of certified materials, some of which are suitable for food contact. These developments are particularly relevant as new legislation such as the 𝗣𝗣𝗪𝗥 (Plastics Packaging Waste Regulation) and the 𝗔𝗹𝘁𝗳𝗮𝗵𝗿𝘇𝗲𝘂𝗴𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗻𝘂𝗻𝗴 are keeping the industry busy.

He tells me that he is motivated by the variety of tasks in the plastics industry. There are new challenges every day, whether in the areas of foils, automotive, beauty or home & garden. Daniel describes how important it is to exchange ideas with other players in the industry in order to find joint solutions in the field of sustainability

WIS Kunststoffe is a familybusiness with around 100 employees, and Daniel is proud that they recently won the 𝗡𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗵𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗶𝗴𝗸𝗲𝗶𝘁𝘀𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗶𝘀 for a 𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗣𝗖𝗥-𝗧𝘂𝗯𝗲. This tube is made from 100% post-consumer materials and was developed in collaboration with the German company Linhard. Daniel explains that the high proportion of recycled material in the tube poses a particular challenge, as the production processes
processes have to be designed in such a way that the quality of the end products is guaranteed.

He explains the importance of circular economy: The tube can be placed in the 𝗴𝗲𝗹𝗯𝗲𝗻 𝗦𝗮𝗰𝗸 after use in order to be reused. Daniel emphasizes the importance of educating consumers that separating materials should not be necessary.

With regard to the future of plastics, Daniel expresses the hope that a deeper circular economy will be pursued. This requires investment in technologies that enable the sustainable use of plastics. He is convinced that the future of the plastics industry in Germany remains promising as long as creative minds continue to develop
continue to develop innovative solutions.
