Carrying the green plastic BPF baton

20-03-2014

New president of British Plastics Federation (BPF), Philip Watkins (MD of Gabriel-Chemie UK), has grabbed the green plastic baton from former president, Paul Jukes, and is determined to continue and develop the theme of ‘sustainability’ into his two-year tenure. Whilst focusing on the security of supply of materials and energy to meet industry needs, he wants greater recognition of plastics’ input into UK economic health. With demand escalating and supplies dwindling, energy will be a deciding factor in the future of the domestic plastics industry. With this in mind, and buoyed by BPF’s Sustainable Manufacturing Initiative and Operation Clean Sweep, Watkins will be deploying ‘Our Sustainable Plastics Industry, a strategic asset in our manufacturing economy’, a theme dedicated to the ‘development of the plastics industry in a sustainable way as an engine for growth and as a key sector in the UK’s manufacturing economy’.
