CBA Applies For Affiliate 
Membership of Cefic

The Chemical Business Association (CBA) announced that it had applied to become an Affiliate Member of Cefic (European Chemical Industry Council). CBA Chairman, Francis Osborn, said, "Cefic membership will complete the strategic evolution of CBA into an inclusive Association for the UK supply chain. It provides access to Europe's most powerful advocacy network acting on behalf of the chemical sector - which we believe will directly benefit CBA and its member companies." CBA intends to retain its membership of FECC - the European Association for Chemical Distributors. "As much of the industry's legislative and regulatory framework now emanates from the European Union, Cefic membership is a logical progression for CBA. It also builds on CBA's existing relationships with Cefic, such as Responsible Care and a range of industry performance and technical standards," said Francis Osborn. CBA is the first National Association for chemical distributors to apply for Affiliate Membership of Cefic.
