British rubber industry networking event planned for 24 November

The British Rubber and Polyurethane Products Association (BRPPA) will hold its first anniversary celebration for its members and their guests on 24 November at the Nottingham Belfry Hotel.

''Whilst first and foremost it is a celebration of our first successful year as a trade association, and an opportunity for our partners to meet and get to know each other,'' BRPPA chairman Dr Alex Celik said, ''I hope that it will also prove to be an important industry networking event.

''We are asking member companies to invite their customers, suppliers and staff as their guests.''

BRPPA was set up in January to represent the interests of Britain's rubber and polyurethane manufacturers.
