What Makes Plastindia International
University Stand Out?

Ever-increasing Use of Plastics

Global plastic production has surged to over 430 million tonnes per year, with one-fourth of the total amount consumed in India. In response to the constantly increasing plastic pollution, the international community is making various efforts, including the United Nations’ new global treaty. Meanwhile, various techniques, from chemical recycling to bioplastics, are being used nowadays for sustainable plastic production.
