+Additives Group+

Part of the BPF Raw Materials Division


The BPF Additives Group’s mission is to maintain a strong networking platform, to promote and enhance the plastics additives business throughout the UK to the plastics supply chain, from processor to specifier and to the final customer. 

Additives include anti-microbials, fragrances, anti-oxidants, antistatic agents, blowing agents, fillers, flame retardants, heat stabilisers, impact modifiers, pigments, plasticisers - including biodegradable plasticisers, and process aids.

The Group is currently focussed on:
  • Managing the reputation of chemicals, additives and plastics and their promotion in plastics applications. 
  • Managing and influencing significant legislative change and cost-effective implementation.
  • Having better exposure to end-market trends and new additives’ contributions to the marketplace. 
  • Prioritising relevant markets for export, with a view to harnessing appropriate support through the BPF to explore these
  • Focussing on the delivery of appropriate health and safety policies to plastics processors

The Group has produced a downloadable buyers guide for members and representatives as a reference resource for contact details and products from each of the member companies.
