VinylPlus Germany e.V.
As the voice of the German PVC industry, VinylPlus Deutschland (formerly AGPU) with its more than 50 member companies and partners along the entire PVC value chain has been creating public transparency for more than 30 years and stands for reliable information in dialogue with decision-makers from politics, business, trade and NGOs in Germany.
VinylPlus Germany is committed to PVC as a sustainable material!
Sector network
VinylPlus Germany is the voice of the PVC industry in Germany and represents the entire value chain with its approximately 60 member companies - from raw material production to processing and recycling. VinylPlus Germany offers its members access to an established and wide-ranging industry network, regular expert meetings, workshops and an annual general meeting with the VinylPlus® Sustainability Forum Germany.
Bundled knowledge
VinylPlus Germany pools the knowledge of many experts and promotes its exchange. In addition, VinylPlus Germany - also together with partner associations - regularly publishes current studies and data on PVC in Germany, continuously evaluates media and legislative processes on relevant PVC topics and makes the results exclusively available to members in the weekly PVCTicker in German and English.
Open dialogue
VinylPlus Germany communicates the goals and successes of the European VinylPlus® sustainability programme. In addition, VinylPlus Germany maintains an intensive dialogue with decision-makers and opinion leaders, creates transparency and thus builds trust in the sustainable development of the material. This includes sending regular newsletters to relevant target groups, producing brochures and specific information materials, and writing statements and letters to the editor to the media, politicians and authorities, even when PVC as a material comes under unjustified criticism.
THIS IS WHY MEMBERSHIP IS WORTHWHILE
We offer our members access to decision-makers in politics, industry, authorities, the construction industry, to journalists and important opinion leaders. The close cooperation with VinylPlus® offers a view beyond Germany, opens up the European perspective and ensures a uniform sender of our messages. In cooperation with other associations in the plastics industry, we regularly produce up-to-date studies and data surveys on PVC in Germany. Press releases flank events and important events for the industry.
