The new teaching aid box offers schoolchildren, teachers and extracurricular education providers a great opportunity to immerse themselves in the world of plastics," explains Timna Reisenberger from the Plastics Cluster. The expert is convinced: "The range of thematic points of contact also makes it clear how difficult it is to imagine a world without plastics. Rather, it is important to learn how to handle plastic correctly – and this is exactly what the teaching aid box is perfect for.”
