PLASTICS|SA EVENT CALENDAR

World Oceans Day aims to raise awareness of the role of the oceans and the importance of conserving and protecting our marine environment.

• Dynamic international and local speakers
• Exhibitions of vinyl products, applications and developments
• Not to be missed networking and brand-building opportunities

Vinyl is used in a wide variety of applications and sectors – ranging from water supply and healthcare, to packaging, footwear, building and construction. In the three years since SAVA hosted its Vinyls SA Conference in 2017, a lot of innovation and various industry developments have taken place. Both locally and internationally, the vinyls industry has faced and overcome many challenges. In this ever evolving market, there are environmental, health and business developments that continuously need to be addressed. We are hoping to create a platform where role-players can show off their products and where the amazing versatility of vinyls can truly be put on display.

On the third Saturday in September, International Coastal Clean-Up Day encourages people to rid beaches of the garbage plaguing beaches. Awareness is also spread about preserving and protecting the world’s oceans and waterways.

Ocean conservation groups, along with environmental organizations, are concerned about the amounts of trash that litter the world’s coastlines. It has become a global movement with 6 million volunteers across 90 countries doing their part to keep the coastlines clean.

Encourages South Africans to recycle at home, school and at work rather than litter!  We need to take responsibility for the waste that we generate.

This campaign aims to educate South Africans about the role the ocean plays in our daily lives and why we should be protecting it at all costs!
