Emmanuel Macron, President of France
“Transforming plastic waste into recycled and recyclable plastic, this is the mission of French company Carbios. Thanks to the ongoing support of the French government, this mission is well on the way to becoming a reality.
By combining industrialization, the fight against plastic pollution and job creation, Carbios is proof that our efforts under France 2030, to prepare our country for the challenges of the next decade, are bearing fruit.
Scheduled to be commissioned in 2025, their plant in Longlaville, Meurthe-et-Moselle, is set to create 150 new jobs. It will be the first plastic biorecycling plant in France, and more importantly, the first of its kind in the world!
This is excellent news for the people of Longlaville, for French innovation and for the planet. And one more step towards what we are building, and must accelerate: greater French and European sovereignty.”
