SAP Announces a New Global Marketplace for Suppliers of Recycled Plastics and Plastic Alternatives.
London, UK – 17-Sept, 2018 – SAP UKI today announced plans to work with partners to pilot a “Plastics Cloud”,
which will collect existing and live data from across the plastics supply chain to spark new ideas for waste reduction.
The Plastics Cloud will use the power of SAP Leonardo’s technology, including machine learning, to compile information
which can be used to forecast trends in plastics purchasing and recycling, enabling services to meet demand.
Data could also be shared with consumers to help them understand their own plastics impact.
The announcement will be made on Friday 21st September at the London Design Festival which
has named plastics as its ‘material of the year’ in a bid to reduce single use plastics by repurposing it in new and more valuable ways.
