More than thirty logistics and digitalization experts from chemical companies located in Flanders, the Netherlands and North Rhine-Westphalia took part in an interactive workshop on 12 December 2022 in Antwerp organized by the Trilog initiative in cooperation with BASF Antwerp and supported by Cefic.
