We attend the presentation of the Port of Barcelona’s plastic transformation and revalorization program

On Wednesday, May 14th, Barcelona Clúster Nàutic attended the presentation of the plastic transformation and revalorization program, promoted by BCN Port Innovation — a pioneering initiative in the field of circular economy.

This innovative project makes it possible to recover plastic waste generated by port companies, clean it without using water, and transform it into new reusable products — thereby reducing environmental impact and promoting sustainability in port activity.

During the event, representatives from BCN Port Innovation, MB92 Barcelona —a member of Barcelona Clúster Nàutic—, TMA Tecnología Medio Ambiente, the CARES Foundation, and the Port of Barcelona highlighted several key aspects of the program:

• The technical feasibility of the transformation process.
• The environmental benefits associated with material reuse.
• The labor inclusion of people with disabilities within the project.
• The importance of collaboration between companies to move toward a more sustainable economic model.

This initiative exemplifies how innovation and social responsibility can go hand in hand to transform the future of the port and maritime sector.
