The Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) says that Russia’s invasion has caused a humanitarian crisis in Ukraine, while throwing the strong global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic into doubt. The OECD further estimates a setback in global economic growth due to this conflict and high inflation rate. The war is pushing oil,petrochemical and metal prices which could affect a wide range of industries, including plastics production. In this issue,we look at how leading companies in the plastics industry are responding to the situation and their efforts in assisting those affected by the war.
