About CLOMA

Building Whole-Society Frameworks for
Plastic Circularity
Solving the ocean plastic pollution problem requires not only collecting plastic that has already leaked into the environment, but also building whole-society frameworks to prevent further leakage.
CLOMA has set a goal of achieving 100% recycling of plastic packaging and products by 2050. By bringing together the technologies and expertise of Japan, CLOMA is promoting plastic circularity through collaboration between the public and private sectors, with a focus on 3R (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) and the development of alternative materials.
In collaboration with consumers and society, CLOMA will promote initiatives toward realizing a sound material-cycle society and share them with the world as a Japan-born solution, the Japan Model.
What Kind of Plastic Circularity
Does CLOMA Aim For?
CLOMA aims to create a Japanese-style circular economy society in which finite resources circulate throughout society, sustaining prosperous lives and industries into the future.
In this future society, companies provide products and services designed for circularity, municipalities make it easier to collect and recover resources, and consumers incorporate sorting, reuse, and repair into their daily lives.
At the heart of this vision are traditional Japanese values: respecting finite resources, appreciating nature and the things around us, and creating prosperous lives through cooperation. These circular systems help prevent plastic waste from entering the environment while contributing to clean oceans and a nature-positive future.

Driving Innovation
Through Corporate Collaboration
CLOMA brings together companies, local governments, government ministries, and partner organizations from a wide range of sectors. As an alliance, CLOMA enables organizations with different roles and expertise to work together to solve shared social challenges.
By taking a whole-of-lifecycle approach to plastics, from materials and manufacturing to distribution, collection, and recycling, organizations bring together their expertise and strengths to develop practical solutions through collaboration across sectors.
The impact of collaboration at CLOMA goes far beyond technology development. By working across organizational and sectoral boundaries, members create innovations that would be impossible to achieve alone, turning new ideas into real-world systems, infrastructure, and solutions.
