From the start of March, he stepped up from his role as CEO, to become Plastic Energy’s Chairman.

In this new role, he will remain actively involved in the governance and future of the company.

Under Carlos’ leadership Plastic Energy has pioneered technology capable of providing a solution to previously unrecyclable plastic waste and bringing it back into a circular economy.

While the Board performs a search for a new permanent CEO, Ian Temperton, formerly Plastic Energy’s EVP of Sales and Corporate Development, has taken on the role of Interim CEO.

The organisation aims to make this transition as seamless as possible for all stakeholders, and any day-to-day relationships held across the company are not expected to change.

Carlos will participate in a fireside Q&A chat to discuss collaborations cases across the plastics circular economy value chain during the second day of the 5th Go Circular Summit. The Summit will take place in Cologne on the 16th-17th of April 2024.
