The Plastics Subcommittee of the Loveland, Colorado-based National Recycling Coalition (NRC) has scheduled a Plastics Survey Results Forum that will be held as a Zoom call on Thursday, March 26, 2026.

The forum is scheduled to run from 2:00 to 3:30 p.m. Eastern Time that day and has been developed to present an exclusive NRC member-only overview of the Plastics Survey results, says the association.

The overview will include background on the survey’s approach, a review of the responses “and an initial synthesis of key themes and insights emerging from the responses,” says NRC.

Following the NRC’s overview presentations, forum participants will be invited to take part in what NCR calls a collaborative conversation about what the results mean for the NRC and the broader recycling community.

That conversation, says NRC, will allow its members to “ask questions, challenge assumptions and identify gaps” in the association’s own assessment, and for them to “contribute additional perspectives that can strengthen the final analysis.”

The discussion is intended to help the Plastics Subcommittee refine its findings, expand its body of knowledge and to have insights from the conversation “inform the policy recommendations to be made by the subcommittee for the NRC board’s review and discussion this spring.”

NRC members can register for the online forum through the organization’s website.
