The Plastics Industry Association (PLASTICS) represents the entire plastics industry supply chain. Its governing structure is organized such that each industry sector has the same level of influence over the organization’s decision-making.
Additionally, PLASTICS has many groups, committees and divisions focusing on specific segments of the plastics industry, such as recycling, bioplastics, food, drug and cosmetic packaging, and worker health and safety.
Governing the organization in this fashion ensures that member companies enjoy both the tailored benefits of a boutique organization and the greater influence on public opinion and policymaking that an industry-wide organization provides.
