Plastics CoE remolds itself into a Polymer Alliance
Plastics CoE remolds itself into a Polymer Alliance
By Peter Kerr for sticK
(sticK - 1 November 2011 ) Fittingly, the plastics industry seems to be on the verge of remolding itself and its centre of excellence.
This time, for an activity that is known as an ‘enabling industry’, hopefully the model and structure is got right. As a $3.8 billion business, for something that operates below the radar, it has the potential to be much more enabling.
Because the industry has been here before – though not with as wide an industry group as is on the verge of coming together.
