Launch of Oxo-Biodegradable Plastics Federation-

1st February 2016

               OXO-BIODEGRADABLE PLASTICS FEDERATION

We are pleased to announce the formation of the OXO-BIODEGRADABLE PLASTICS FEDERATION (OBPF), an industry wide, global collaboration group to promote the appropriate use of oxo-biodegradable products through participation in the development of standards, regulations, material guides and positive community interaction. Supported by scientific, economic and social research into the development of products, applications, and systems deriving from and using oxo-biodegradable products, it is intended to help educate and further public awareness of oxo-biodegradable products as an available alternative to existing products and to promote the use of these products without any anti-competitive activities in relation to other relevant industry and academic associations.

The FEDERATION has been founded by a group of leading manufacturers and technologists and is open to membership from all interested parties who support the concept and credentials of oxo-biodegradable technology.

For further information and to register an interest in joining the OXO-BIODEGRADABLE PLASTICS FEDERATION, please contact the Chairman Dr Gary Ogden via e-mail at garyogden@wellsplastics.com
