ANARPLA also joined this initiative, further strengthening Iberian representation in a platform that, since its launch by APIP at the Plastics Summit - Global Event 2025, has been bringing together a growing number of associations worldwide.


This joint presence highlights the commitment to WUPA’s key objectives:

  • Building a global hub of scientific knowledge on plastics
  • Promoting international cooperation among associations
  • Strengthening trust and the sector’s reputation
  • Communicating based on scientific evidence, combating misinformation
  • Sharing scientific data and driving innovation
  • Enhancing digital communication and global engagement


APIP would like to thank CEP and AVEP for their presence and contribution to this shared mission of giving the plastics sector a stronger, more transparent, and science-based voice.


Together, we reinforce the sector’s role in innovation, sustainability, and circularity.
