Sony has just revamped its supply chain to shift towards more renewable plastics for its high-end audio-visual products, including cameras.

Sony has teamed up with 13 other companies to create a global supply chain across 14 companies and five countries to produce renewable plastics. The joint venture is the first time that an entire supply chain for raw materials to finished products has been visualized in such a way, Sony says.
