As we start to follow the roadmap that leads towards sustainable PLFs, what do we already know about these materials and why do they matter to us all?

Polymers in liquid formulations (PLFs) play a vital role in our lives, yet limited attention has been paid to their environmental impacts.
We wanted to change that, so we brought together key stakeholders to investigate. In 2021, we published our initial findings and launched the Sustainable PLFs Task Force.
Together, this group of industry leaders and experts has created a roadmap to catalyse a sustainable PLFs revolution.
Explore the resources below to find out more about PLFs – and join the revolution.
