The BOSS Environmental Forum was formed as the Single Use Plastic Forum in 2018 and rebranded in 2022
Our BOSS Environmental Forum, was founded as the Single Use Plastics Forum to encourage an industry-wide dissemination of agreed plastic data fields and has now widened its remit to include environmental topics. It will still monitor Government, scientific and market trends with respect to the manufacture and use of plastic, but now intends to act as a catalyst to educate the industry in best practices across all environmental issues.
All BOSS members are welcome to take part in meetings. To get involved, email liz@bossfederation.co.uk
