The 5th Product Lifetimes and the Environment PLATE2023 Conference will take place at Aalto University in Finland.

PLATE is an international, multidisciplinary conference that addresses product lifetimes in the context of sustainable development.

Product lifetimes are increasingly prominent in discussions concerning sustainability, particularly in the context of the circular economy, resource efficiency, waste reduction and climate change. A growing number of academic researchers, businesses, think tanks, government bodies and policy stakeholders are interested in understanding the effect that product longevity has on environmental, economic and social sustainability.
