Americas Regional Meeting of the Polymer Processing Society

September 23 - 25, 2025 | Guelph, ON, Canada

On behalf of the Polymer Processing Society (PPS), the Polymer Processing Academy (PPA) and the local organizing committee, it is our pleasure to invite you to the Americas Regional Meeting of the Polymer Processing Society, PPS-2025, to be held at Guelph, Ontario from September 23-25, 2025. The objective of the conference is to foster exchange of developments and innovations in Polymer Engineering related areas.

Conference Focus

This years iteration of the PPS conference will have a particular focus on three aspects of polymer processing:

The development of sustainable polymers, with a focus on circularity of polymer materials
The incorporation of AI into polymer processing innovation.
Mitigation strategies for waste plastic, PFAS & Microplastics
