The FPA promotes the responsible manufacture, sourcing, distribution, usage and disposal of food and foodservice packaging. It represents the industry with all four UK governments and engages with key government departments and committees. Foodservice packaging is under unprecedented pressure from government legislation (such as plastics tax, EPR, DRS and consistent collections) and from the impact on the industry of the coronavirus pandemic.
If packaging plays a role in your business at any point in the supply chain, as a manufacturer, distributor or foodservice/hospitality operator (front & back of house) you should join the FPA.

Buying from an FPA member is a responsible purchasing decision.
Members are drawn from across the supply chain, including raw materials suppliers, manufacturers and converters, distributors and wholesalers, foodservice and hospitality operators, and waste collectors and recyclers.
The FPA usually runs several events each year, including our Environment Conference, Annual Awards, Golf & Activities Day, Annual Lunch, as well as regular webinars and field visits.
The FPA Golf & Activities day is taking place on 13 June at Staverton Park Hotel & Whilton Mill.
